“It was hard because people didn’t keep their contact numbers updated, or simply didn’t pick up the phone, or didn’t see the phone call or message asking about it in time. Now I just post a shift available and everyone is able to see it at the same time.”

"Let's me know when I have to work 3 hours in advance. Easy to trade shifts with people if I need to."

"It was not the calling of coffee, but the calling to try to build a company that my father never got a chance to work for."

“Makes communicating shifts easier. Keeps people accountable to their shifts. Helps people cover shifts when life happens. Improves morale and communication.”

“Gives me a reminder a few hours in advance every day. Some days, I forget (about a shift) and Branch reminds me with plenty of time to spare.”

"I want to meet the customer where they're at. That might be in the home, our store and hopefully a transition between the two. It's super important for our employees to feel like they have a place in the future of where we're going.”

“I went on vacation one time and couldn’t make it back on time. So I use the Branch app to find someone to cover my shift because I was new to the store and do not have everyone’s phone number.”

"If more businesses knew about Branch, it would be an effective way to have their business running smoothly - as far as scheduling and what needs to be done on a daily basis."

“It facilitates my work life a lot and reminds me of what I'm doing. Without it I would be lost and asking people to take pictures of schedules.”

"I’ll organize everything we have to do for the day. I’ll look over and see what kind of setups we have to do for every room in the whole building and I’ll communicate with the people coming into the building and see how they want their room setup. And then …

“I love the work community it creates. It makes finding coverage for shifts a lot easier. It also makes posting off days and availability simple.”

"Helps me communicate well with my staff and keeps us much more organized on how to run our system. It's just what we needed."

“Cash flow is paramount right now. Our industry faces a lot of challenges including stylist retention, and many of them are unbanked. What Branch offers is stylists to get their wages faster, and owners to control cash flow. The reception has been pretty amazing.”

"People are always trying to rearrange their schedule."

“Branch increases the interactions employees have with one another and the manager. It has also made it easier to receive and view the schedule each week and trade shifts.”
