Whether they have an audience of 50 or 50,000 people, organizations turn to AlertMedia when they need a reliable, quick, and simple solution to keep everyone connected during critical situations.
Greyhound is using the AlertMedia platform to enhance and improve communications with approximately 1,000 employees. According to Greyhound, the platform’s ease of use and ability to communicate across multiple channels were large factors in their decision to deploy AlertMedia. “AlertMedia is a great way for us to communicate with employees who are not always in front of a PC screen. It is simple and easy to use which allows us to reach people effectively. The ability to communicate via different channels is something that was really important to us. Now we can reach out to our employees via text, voicemail, social media, and/or email to ensure that they are getting important information, whether it’s about upcoming deadlines, customer information or company news,” said Eric Wesley, manager of communications and recognition, Greyhound.
