"CreativEnergy has been partners with Denny’s for many years and have provided specific expertise in contracting for electricity and natural gas in deregulated markets nationally to maximize savings for our stores.  CreativEnergy has always been thorough in their follow up and customer service and I would recommend their service to other national brands."

"At IPC we value our partnerships. CreativEnergy's dedication to service and ability to drive savings for our franchisees makes them one of our most valued partners. IPC looks forward to working with CreativEnergy both now and in the future."

"I appreciate what CreativeEnergy has been able to do for Brookwood Hotels. As someone who has worked for multiple companies that have multiple sites in varying geographical locations, I’ve come to appreciate the services your company has provided. CreativEnergy’s help during my tenure at Extended Stay America with over 700 hotels and now at Brookwood Hotels with over 110 locations, was greatly beneficial in navigating the various utility providers and their rate structures to insure we were saving dollars whenever possible. This was a task that could not have been given to a better team of individuals. Your diligence and ability to correctly ‘guess’ what the market might do helped us lower our operating costs in those regions while maintaining an awareness of future utility price increases."

What separates CreativEnergy from other consultants I have worked with is their ability to manage CKE’s vast franchisee community.  Their advice and recommendations are given in a manner that the inexperienced Franchise Owners can easily understand."
