Creating a Healthier Customer

The air we breathe is single most important external factor governing our health today. It’s obvious that no one can survive without clean air, yet we take it for granted.

We breathe 2 gallons of air per minute, that’s 3400 gallons of air each day. Air pollution takes away at least 1-2 years of a typical human life. According to the World Health Organisation, 92% live in places where air pollution routinely exceeds safe limits.*

There were an estimated 6.5 million deaths worldwide from air pollution-related diseases in 2012, WHO data shows. That’s 11.6% of all global deaths – more than the number of people killed by Covid-19, tuberculosis and road injuries combined.

Building a safe home, travel and working environment isn't just important, it's essential.

This course is designed to help those in a customer advisory role. The course teaches how to build a better air quality environment for customers. Taking care of customers’ health and helping them make better, more informed decisions when purchasing products and services that effect the very air they, and their loved ones, breathe

Module 1: An Introduction to Healthy Homes Awareness for Professionals
We discuss the concept of the ‘indoor generation’, how the changing habits of society means we spend more time indoors and the health impact that is having. This module examines the health impact and, as a result, the rising demand for clean indoor air. Dr McKeon (Dr John) makes the case that the construction industry needs to start talking more about people and not simply focus on products, sustainability and material science.

Module 2: Medical Impact of Poor Indoor Air Quality
The dialogue between professionals and customers is changing. It is vital for those in industry to understand what it means to have a healthy indoor air and how that is shaping customer demand. Dr John explains why great looking buildings may not necessarily be healthy buildings and what we can do about it.

Module 3: Indoor Pathogens; including Coronavirus
In this module we delve into the statistics, medical language and how to talk to customers in a relatable way. We learn about gasses, particles and biologicals and conduct basic conversations about these hazards. Brief punchy videos not only to understand more about pathogens such as Coronavirus. But how to control the impact of pathogens within a building.

Module 4: What Are Asthma and Allergies?
Asthma and Allergies impact a staggering 50% of US households. Many indoor triggers are causing medical challenges. Dr John teaches us the triggers of asthma and allergies within the home and how to talk about it. We examine the lack of regulation in this area and the confusion this brings to home owners. Finally we look at how to mitigate against these common allergens and have better, more productive conversations with your customers on this topic.

Module 5: In-Home Triggers
Dr John takes us on a fascinating ‘walk through’ of a typical house spotting common reservoirs of indoor triggers that can lead to poor air quality and negative health outcomes. Learn the positive impacts of ventilation, source control and cleaning. Become an expert in spotting the potential triggers and help your customers build the best, healthiest, indoor environment possible.

Module 6: The Opportunity
Knowledge alone is not power; we need to put what we know into action. Dr John now brings together what we already know as building related professionals and our new knowledge around healthy budlings. Through practical use cases we learn how to build a better brand and customer centric value proposition, with regards to healthier home awareness. He takes us through a journey of how to activate what we’ve learned using frameworks, decision trees and models.
