What is the Better Business Bureau looking for?
First, let us extend a huge congratulations to all of the finalists for the Torch Awards. Just by naming these companies finalists, the BBB has recognized their commendable dedication to ethics in business. So, what qualities define a Torch Award finalist or winner? Take it straight from the BBB:
Encouraging and supporting ethical business practices is a key purpose of the Better Business Bureau. The Torch Award is the most prestigious honor the BBB can present to a business. Being a recipient indicates that the business not only believes in the high standards promoted by the BBB, but also consistently acts on them and continuously integrates them into daily practices.For the Better Business Bureau, conducting business honestly and respectfully goes much deeper than simply following the rules; companies that treat ethics as a core value, demonstrate integrity at every level, and hire employees with shared principles stand above the rest. The Torch Award process examined company leadership, communication, unity, performance, employment practices, community contributions, and more. We are so proud to have excelled in our evaluation and honored to be named a Torch Award winner by the Better Business Bureau serving Greater Denver and Central Colorado.
What Makes iLendingDIRECT a BBB Torch Award Winner
At iLendingDIRECT, we live and breathe our core values, each of which stem from our leadership’s desire to do the right thing and help others. In order to assist our customers, we must have the utmost integrity—there’s no room for dishonesty or deception when we are dealing with personal finances. We respect our customers and put their needs above our profits—if a certain loan term or interest rate will ultimately harm our customer’s financial wellbeing, we don’t recommend proceeding, even if it means we lose a deal.
- INTEGRITY – Keep it 100 even when no one is looking.
- FREEDOM – Live the way you want and do you!
- FAMILY – What matters most.
- RESPECT – Treat others the way you want to be treated, unconditionally.
- ALL-IN – Give 100%, 100% of the time!
