Firstup

““It’s leadership engagement and it’s employee engagement. It’s incredibly powerful.””

“We were taken aback by how quickly the platform was adopted and the joy it brought.”

“What Firstup has allowed us to do is to bring our family of brands together on one platform to share information, get information, and really be inspired by each other.”

“Our initial thinking was, ‘we need to send an email on Tuesday at 3 pm to everyone’. But when asked ‘why?’, I couldn’t come up with a good answer. It made me step back and re-evaluate my thought process around how we send communications. Is there a smarter way to share these?”

“The fundamental reason we looked for help from Firstup is that we were having problems with internal communication. We needed a solution where information was pushed directly to each employee, so it was in the palm of their hand when they were ready to digest it. Firstup was a pretty easy sell internally as the way to solve this problem,”

“Treehouse has given our employees a consistent, accessible platform to stay informed, feel connected, and support our mission. It's also become a powerful way to bring our values to life through the meaningful stories we share.”

““Targeted content has given us the ability to share announcements and events with the right group of team members, without flooding the inboxes of those that don’t need to see a particular message.””

““Firstup has brought so much value to Newell Brands,””

“We want to give people as many tools as we can to build engagement and communication both ways,”

“This platform has allowed us to preserve that welcoming atmosphere where colleagues still know each other and connect personally.”

“MyLexie has given us a place to meet our employees where they are, to give them the information that they want and need to know in a fun and engaging way. We're really creating a community that represents our culture.”

““Anyone who thinks they’re reaching their folks by relying on just an intranet is kidding themselves.””

““Since we’ve implemented MIX, the culture of the frontline workers is slowly coming around to what it was decades ago," Hunter said. "I see the culture starting to shift back to that family feel.””

““Employees were not getting key information that they needed,” Hunter recently told Firstup. “It was very difficult to know what messages were getting to any specific group, or anybody for that matter.””

“We feel like one because that is our place to meet, connect, and communicate,”

“The platform has helped us build an online community that truly reflects our culture and connects people across distances. It's key to our strategy of making senior leaders more accessible and transforming how we engage with our workforce.”

“With Firstup, we were able to reach those who still had action items without spamming compliant team members,” Grace Carlson Internal Communications Specialist at Wellstar, said. “Promoting awareness among team members and providing leaders with resources to support non-compliant team members through the process was key to our success.”

““It’s a great feeling to make them feel connected,” Lynn said, “to let them know what they do at JetBlue matters, and that they’re a part of something much bigger than themselves.””

““It was just one of the most meaningful, inspiring experiences that we had through the platform, where it was our culture and values in action through that digital tool."”

““The two-way communication that The Dish enabled really made a meaningful difference for our employees at that time,””

““One big advantage of the Firstup platform is that it can do a lot of things for us in one place. It’s made life easier,””

““The Firstup platform enables us to target employees with the right information at the right time, and that makes a better experience for our employees,””

““What the Firstup platform does is it really enables us to bring content and communication to our employees in a meaningful and modern way. That’s what they are used to outside of work; we want them to have that experience inside of work,””

“The value of Firstup for us is that we can now reach all of our employees on their mobile devices, which we couldn’t before,” said Erica. “We can reach remote employees, and our people can check the news, see what’s happening, and feel engaged with what the company is doing; they can do that on their commute home or as they’re popping out to get a coffee. They aren’t stuck at their desks reliant on a 1990s style intranet anymore.”

“Having the right people involved from both teams was essential, and we feel like we got the recipe just right. The platform is robust. There are a lot of things it can do. But the Firstup team helped guide us to the tools that we needed right now, in this short amount of time, and help us become experts in those.”
