Our Fee |
||
Regardless of which Electric Company or Natural Gas Company you choose, our fee is paid through the Supplier. The fee is generally equal to or less than the commission that would be paid to a salesperson that represents any individual energy company. We are paid the same fee by each supplier. Making us completely unbiased! |
Which Suppliers Do We Use?
- We pride ourselves on our relationships with our approved Suppliers. Several of our suppliers have named our firm an Elite Partner. A status that we have earned and are very proud of.
- Each Approved Supplier must sign our Statement of Honesty and Integrity. If they don't sign it, or question it whatsoever, WE DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH THEM, PERIOD! (We've taken a lot of heat from some Suppliers for this, but we believe it is in the best interest of our clients)
- We do business with the largest national providers as well as proven, smaller private regional providers.
- Each Supplier has different niche markets. We match the Supplier to the Client.
- Our Managing Director specializes in Supplier Certification.
- Each Supplier must pass a rigorous review process to become Certified. This includes, but is not limited to: financial analysis, performance in other markets, benchmark performance within the same market, interview of executive team and interview of current customers. We generally determine if the Supplier does what they say they are going to do?
- Supplier must make a clear statement of stability in a particular marketplace, or a clear exit strategy, which has the best interest of the client in mind.
- In this era of "cloudy" financial statements, our Managing Director relies on many "intangible" factors to evaluate a supplier, including interviewing the executive management team for a "gut feel" on the moral compass of their company. He also performs a background check on the management of the Suppliers.
- We also know if this supplier is doing a good job for our other clients.
- Supplier must maintain good standing in their marketplace.
- To become an Approved Supplier email jmass@sevenutility.com.
- This is a VERY DYNAMIC MARKETPLACE. We are constantly reviewing our Suppliers. We typically drop and add one or two Suppliers every quarter!
