PlayerLync is excited to partner with FiveStar as its Mobile Workforce Enablement platform to help bolster communication, training, and employee engagement in its stores.
FiveStar, with more than 80 locations in Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee, is known for its fresh food and excellent customer experience. Now, by partnering with PlayerLync, FiveStar will enhance the operational capabilities of its mobile workforce. As Meredith Goodin, FiveStar Human Resources said, “We’ve grown as a company and have seen the need to change our approach. PlayerLync will assist getting messages out consistently and engage all types of employees. With ages ranging from 16 to 77 years, PlayerLync will provide the training and operational support employees want.”
PlayerLync, the leading provider in Mobile Workforce Enablement solutions, is pioneering how frontline workforces interact with company information. Having started in the NFL, PlayerLync is now an industry leader for restaurant and retail organizations, helping their frontline workforces receive the information they need, where and when it’s needed.
As Bob Paulsen, CEO of PlayerLync, said, “We are excited to launch this partnership with an outstanding thought leader like FiveStar. Their family-like culture and focus on delivering an exceptional quality experience has been a core to their success along the way. We are thrilled to work together as they continue to expand their footprint and their services to leverage our Mobile Workforce Enablement platform, guaranteeing that every frontline employee has the personalized video rich information at their fingertips at all times.”
FiveStar’s management now has unmatched visibility into how its workforce, and stores, are performing. PlayerLync provides management with direct communication to the frontline, overcoming the challenge of reaching employees without company email. Management can monitor and assess which training and operational content is being engaged with, change or adjust processes as needed, and use videos to further enhance their training strategy.
“With PlayerLync, we are able to utilize videos with our eLearning courses, an initiative we have wanted to implement for some time. We are excited about our partnership with PlayerLync and the possibilities they will provide for our organization.”, states Meredith Goodin.
