Rust Belt Riders' co-founder, Dan Brown, spoke about how his original customer target was solely businesses. The business' idea is to go to fewer locations that generate the most waste rather than going to more places that generate small amounts of waste to collect the composting materials. Businesses generate more waste than individual households. Brown brought up how he looks at the company logistically, meaning they wanted to optimize the revenue per mile. They had to figure out how to create the most efficient routes to pick up the most food scraps in the shortest amount of time. Businesses represented a unique opportunity, where they could give some PR and marketing by showing how they are saving the planet by reducing waste and therefore appeal to more customers. They started the residential program after landing a mass of commercial accounts. It made more sense to do a residential program after they decided to sell soil; they converted households into another target customer. There was a bit of a challenge in finding customers at first due to the fact that it is more expensive, but there are benefits in the fact that you're helping to clean and save the earth. Companies also get back certain information on how much of an impact they are making. Companies then use this information and promote it on their social media.
