Brand Geek leads in legal sustainability through robust community advocacy and precise environmental measurement and offsets.

Brand Geek, like other social (soulful) enterprises, measures and manages its environmental and social impacts alongside profitability, and considers its work for the community to be as important as the services it provides.

Publice Benefits and Disclosures
Brand Geek selected B Lab’s B Impact Assessment as the third-party standard used to prepare this benefit report because it is the most comprehensive evaluation tool of an enterprise’s environmental and social performance.
B Lab is the non-profit that administers the B Impact Assessment Survey which Brand Geek uses as its third-party standard. Businesses that score at least 80 out of 200 on the BIA are eligible to become Certified B Corps, which Brand Geek has been since February 2008. Brand Geek pays dues to B Lab for that certification in the amount of $1000 in 2022.
Brand Geek has completed the BIA every two years (2008, 2010, 2012, 2014 and 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022, 2024) and has applied the standard consistently.
Lara Pearson is Brand Geek’s Benefit Director.
Overall, Brand Geek met its general public benefit purpose last year and Lara complied with her duty to consider the impact of her decisions on Brand Geek’s Stakeholders.
