“We are excited about this release and the adoption by our customers. By adding associate level task management into our mobile-first communication, schedule execution and micro learning platform, WorkJam now enables retailers to better execute store-level campaigns. New product launches, marketing messages and service offering launches from corporate can now easily make their way to the associate, leading to superior customer experiences.” said Steven Kramer, Chief Executive Officer at WorkJam. “Whether you are using WorkJam to conduct associate surveys on a new product, to review comprehension on a new training or policy or to ensure a task is complete, WorkJam is the only app that allows an employer to deliver a single lifecycle solution to their valued associates, creating the true digital workplace.”
Retailers and organizations in other service markets are changing at a rapid pace as they keep up with customer expectations and re-invent their customer experiences to remain competitive and relevant. With the WorkJam solution, companies are able to better execute against both strategic and tactical goals while driving efficiency and effectiveness in their operations. WorkJam provides the tools necessary to ensure that associates are integrated and aligned with corporate strategies so they can provide superior service and leading customer advocacy. WorkJam also allows for the building of associate skills and reworking processes in a way that balances employee needs with customer needs through discovery, agile scheduling and training, two-way communication and operational execution.
Most importantly, WorkJam is leveraging and extending the organization’s existing IT ecosystem to deliver a single, enterprise platform that is associate/user focused. Through this release, WorkJam continues to deliver a digital workplace in a simple, contemporary manner so that companies can achieve increased revenue, cost reductions and agility in a short period of time.
