The $5,000 Mistake Many Local Business Owners Are Making

Date:

And How a Simple Electricity Review Could Save You Thousands

We talk a lot about stretching a dollar here in the Forest Country.
Whether you’re running a small business in Crockett, keeping a church cool in Alto, or powering a feed mill in Diboll—you already know that every expense matters.

But what if I told you that many local businesses are overpaying for electricity by thousands of dollars each year, without even realizing it?

It’s not because they’re doing anything wrong.
It’s because no one ever told them they could do it better.

 The Mistake? Letting Your Energy Contract Auto-Renew (or Expire Quietly)

In deregulated parts of Texas, commercial electricity contracts don’t renew themselves fairly. In fact, many businesses are rolled into “month-to-month” plans with inflated rates, and they never know it—until the bill gets out of hand.

Others sign a contract once and assume it’s a good deal forever. But the market changes constantly. What was a good rate last year could now be 10–20% too high.

 Real Example from the Forest Country

We worked with a business in Wells that was paying nearly 16¢ per kWh—well above market. With one quick review, we helped them secure a rate closer to —saving over $400 a month.

That’s $4,800 a year back into their operation.
No new equipment. No headaches. Just a smarter plan.

 What You Can Do Today

Here’s the good news: You don’t have to be an energy expert to save like one.
You just need someone who knows how to read your usage, understands the providers, and speaks the language of contracts.

That’s where Amerigy Energy comes in.
They’re based here in Texas, and they’ve helped small-town businesses across the Pineywoods cut their electricity costs—without switching providers, installing anything new, or spending a dime.

Final Thought

In towns like Diboll, Crockett, Alto, and Wells, running a business already takes grit, grace, and long hours.
Don’t let a quiet mistake on your electricity bill be the reason you come up short.

A quick review could save you thousands—money that belongs back in your business, your church, or your family’s hands.
