Not only that, but leadership could not easily segment or filter teams by location, making communication unnecessarily complex. Konverse's solution – a white-labeled Follett app – makes it easy for the Follett home office to delivery information and tasks to the right people at the right store locations. **![follett + konverse case study ](https://blog.konverse.com/hs-fs/hubfs/follett%20+%20konverse%20case%20study%20(2).png?width=6990&name=follett%20+%20konverse%20case%20study%20(2).png)***Follett uses Konverse to connect frontline employees with the corporate team and improve cross-function processes. * **Employee Engagement through Peer Communication** Before Konverse, managers were using Facebook Groups to connect and share ideas. With Konverse, Discussion Rooms were created for frontline managers and associates to share success stories, give feedback, ask questions, and engage with home offices’ subject matter experts. With an in-house forum, **data and privacy is prioritized** while still giving employees much-needed outlets for idea-sharing. **“It’s the right information at the right time to the right people.”** - Roe McFarland, President, Follett **Data Dashboards to Empower Managers** Konverse built analytics dashboards ensuring leadership visibility into employee engagement, productivity, and store performance. Frontline managers also use these dashboards to make **real-time decisions about their storefront**, from sales performance and inventory to scheduling and overtime. **Completing Compliance Tasks with Ease** Follett’s retail locations span across the country, so it was important their leadership team could manage and distribute essential regulatory tasks across storefronts. With Konverse, Follett’s team is now able to create Tasks by location and request completion by individual. For instance, when new OSHA posters needed to be hung up, Follett’s team created a task that requested photo proof that the posters were in the correct location. With Konverse, frontline managers completed the task across locations in 2 weeks at 100% compliance. **![Screen Shot 2021-05-17 at 2.24.06 PM](https://blog.konverse.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202021-05-17%20at%202.24.06%20PM.png?width=3358&name=Screen%20Shot%202021-05-17%20at%202.24.06%20PM.png)***With Konverse, teams can assign and track important tasks across locations to ensure a consistent customer experience. * ![Follett_Horizontal_RGB](https://blog.konverse.com/hubfs/Follett_Horizontal_RGB.png) **Industry:** Retail **Company Size:** 10,000 **Location:** U.S. & Canada **Key Features:** - Task Management - Announcements - Event Management - Custom Performance Dashboard - IT Support Desk Integrations [![Request a demo](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/7461943/1e6a5237-244f-4d42-a008-79128fc74809.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/7461943/1e6a5237-244f-4d42-a008-79128fc74809) [![konverse](https://blog.konverse.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/konverse_April2020/images/logo.png) ![konverse](https://blog.konverse.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/konverse_April2020/images/konverse.png)](https://konverse.com/) [Get a demo](https://konverse.com/get-a-demo) - - [Home](https://konverse.com/) - [Enterprise](https://konverse.com/enterprise/) - [Features](https://konverse.com/features) - - [Real Estate](https://konverse.com/industries/real-estate/) - [Retail](https://konverse.com/industries/retail/) - [Hospitality](https://konverse.com/industries/hospitality/) - [Food Services](https://konverse.com/industries/food-service/) - [Healthcare](https://konverse.com/industries/healthcare/) - [Application service agreement](https://vault.pactsafe.io/s/1dff66f5-6f5f-4657-b024-925cc627d4a9/legal.html) - [Website terms](https://vault.pactsafe.io/s/1dff66f5-6f5f-4657-b024-925cc627d4a9/legal.html#contract-s10psx-b) - [Privacy policy](https://vault.pactsafe.io/s/1dff66f5-6f5f-4657-b024-925cc627d4a9/legal.html#contract-bkngsx-bb) - Email: [info@konverse.com](mailto:info@konverse.com) - Phone: [855-488-3401](tel:%20855-488-3401) Konverse 2026 © All Rights Reserved ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "VideoObject", "contentUrl" : "https://7461943.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/7461943/Konverse_Follett_v3_DELIVERY.mp4", "dateModified" : "2022-05-26T18:35:40.565Z", "description" : "", "duration" : "PT2M", "height" : 1080, "name" : "Konverse_Follett_v3_DELIVERY", "thumbnailUrl" : "https://api-na1.hubapi.com/filemanager/api/v3/files/thumbnail-redirect/46702191905?portalId=7461943&size=medium", "uploadDate" : "2021-05-07T18:22:03.418Z", "width" : 1920 } ```
