In the past, I've spent hours preparing and sending out gifts, but now it's done in less than 10 minutes.
Sprint Consulting is an Oslo-based consulting company with a vision to help create the businesses of tomorrow. In order to offer first-class consulting services in areas such as strategy, sustainability and technology, they employ everything from experienced consultants from the top shelf to young talents from Norway's most prestigious universities.
Sprint invests a lot of time and effort in making sure that candidates have a good experience with the recruitment process. Julie Tufte-Johnsen, Recruitment Manager at Sprint, describes some of the measures they take to make sure candidates feel valued.
"We usually follow up with candidates by phone to build a good relationship. On appropriate occasions, we also give gifts, in the form of Morning Delivery, physical gift cards or homemade gift packs."
She finds that candidates are very appreciative of the gifts, but for Sprint, it hasn't been all fun and games. Some of the challenges she has faced with gift giving in the past include:
It was incredibly easy to understand and use Glede. We sent the gifts as a group order and only needed the name and email or phone number of the recipients.
By the time Glede launched in December, Sprint had been in constant dialog with the Glede team, and had made several good suggestions during the development process. There were several reasons why Julie was looking forward to using Glede in favor of other gifting solutions.
"We didn't need addresses, only phone numbers or emails of the gift recipients. And then we could invoice all the gifts together to the company, which meant we didn't have to send an invoice for every single gift. The purpose was to give a nice attention to some selected people. By using Glede we were able to give something that appealed to everyone, rather than picking one thing and hoping everyone likes it."
We are a consulting company, and time is one of the most important things we have. The fact that we can give so easily means that we will definitely be giving nice gifts through Glede in the years to come.
Once the gifts were sent, Julie was excited to see the response from the recipients. After some initial trepidation, she was reassured when the warm feedback came pouring in.
"We received incredibly positive feedback from the gift recipients. The fact that we didn't ask for information in advance meant that it was actually a surprise, so it was very nice both to give and receive. Many also appreciated the fact that they could spend the gift on whatever they wanted."
Julie reflected on the benefits of using Glede.
She is also clear that other companies should also test out Glede.
I would definitely recommend Glede for other businesses looking to give nice surprises! It is incredibly easy to send and the response has been nothing but positive from the recipients. I see only positive aspects of using Glede.
