ERI starts referral program

Fresno, California-based ERI says it has launched a new referral program that “empowers organizations and individuals not currently employed by ERI to steer clients, colleagues and business acquaintances in the direction of safe, data-secure, compliant electronic waste recycling and ITAD services."

The electronics recycling and IT asset disposition (ITAD) services provider says the referral program is commission-based and can be accessed via an online form.

“We know there are many individuals and businesses that are dedicated to recycling electronic devices in an environmentally responsible way while ensuring 100 percent of their data is properly destroyed,” says John Shegerian, ERI’s co-founder and executive chairman. “At ERI, our mission is to protect people, the planet, and privacy. Our new referral program allows us to expand upon that mission while offering financial reward to those people and organizations who help us promote ERI’s diverse service offering of end-of-life electronics recycling and ITAD services.”

ERI says it can welcome a variety of referrals through the program, including intra-company referrals; same-building referrals of other businesses or similar businesses; new locations, branches, or parent/sister companies; and any of the referral source’s customers, affiliates, vendors, friends or family.

The program includes what ERI calls a quick and user-friendly process involving an online form that can be accessed on this webpage.

ERI bills itself as the largest fully integrated ITAD services provider in the United States. The company says it has the capacity to process more than 500,000 tons of electronic scrap annually at its eight locations.
