September 15, 2015 Transcript of #CommsChat on apps and internal comms
Last night we spoke about some of the ways that apps can be used as a tool to better internal communications. We were joined by our guests @StaffConnectApp, here are some of the highlights:
-
@BreeBalchunas A!1: Yes! We just developed an app for our #internalcomms, and it has been widely successful! #CommsChat
-
@CommsGap A1 there are also benefits to keeping some internal Comms outside of email. Email can drown out #internalcomms #CommsChat
-
@StaffConnectApp A2 Utilizing apps to deliver internal comms direct to employees, and empowering them to share opinions & experiences #CommsChat
-
@JaneRevellIC @CommsChat we’ve introduced an onboarding app to engage employees from the moment they are offered a role. #commschat
-
@pipalwa A1 Yes an app can help a company to promote its brand &Tech savvy image internally &externally #commschat
-
@JaneRevellIC @CommsChat We’ve found user generated content a big driver with our clients #EmployeeVoice #CommsChat
-
A2 For insurance, the app has current info on new business, application status and commissions. #CommsChat
-
A1 Yes an app can help a company to promote its brand &Tech savvy image internally &externally #commschat
-
@JaneRevellIC @CommsChat how successful has it been at keeping employees engaged? #CommsChat
-
A1 We tend to go for simplicity. We think less can be more. Haven’t found a need for any slack-type apps yet #commschat
-
@CommsChat we are also using Apps to bring together all digital internal comms and to encourage user generated content #commschat
-
@BeastlyBeautyUK @CommsChat Completely agree. Email is a key component of a mobile app. Drives traffic too. #commschat
-
@thatsmeemily @CommsChat Definitely more appropriate for company phones, so then everyone has access. #commschat
-
A2: Project sharing & tweaking, team communications to discuss what we’re working on at the moment, encouragement, reminders #commschat
-
@CommsChat we’ve introduced an onboarding app to engage employees from the moment they are offered a role. #commschat
-
@CommsChat Email apps are a godsend! Especially when you’re swamped with meetings and need to contact someone. #commschat
-
@BeastlyBeautyUK @CommsChat But unless they are company provided can it really be assumed that everyone has access to them? #CommsChat
-
Some clients use our app for bespoke messaging to key groups with larger organisations. Also values and culture reinforcement. #CommsChat
-
@BeastlyBeautyUK @CommsChat Bang on Bradley, you don’t want push alerts to become annoying…must be useful & relevant #CommsChat
-
@BreeBalchunas @CommsChat how did you launch it? #CommsChat
-
I think so too, especially when trying to communicate with a team of people #CommsChat
-
A2 Utilizing apps to deliver internal comms direct to employees, and empowering them to share opinions & experiences #CommsChat
-
@philspray Agree! Tailoring content within an IC app can be a great way to get the relevant message to the right ppl #CommsChat
-
A1 Yes, and one of the insurance companies I work with has had an app for agents for maybe a year. It’s quick and handy. #CommsChat
-
@CommsChat Everyone seems to have a smartphone, so it’s a logical step. Just keep a check on those push notifications. #commschat
-
-
T2: How are companies utilizing apps for communication? #CommsChat
-
-
A1 there are also benefits to keeping some internal Comms outside of email. Email can drown out #internalcomms #CommsChat
-
@BreeBalchunas That’s fantastic Bree! 🙂 Do you have all employees on board? #CommsChat
-
#CommsChat an app is another tool. Depends on who you want what you want to communicate to who. Should be what’s best for the audience.
-
@CommsChat But getting content right is essential #commschat
-
A!1: Yes! We just developed an app for our #internalcomms, and it has been widely successful! #CommsChat
-
@text_engine Not all employees have company emails & there’s a lot of extras things you can include in apps, quizzes, video etc #CommsChat
-
@StaffConnectApp Are they more appropriate for some organisations than they are others? #CommsChat
-
@CommsChat Def think so. Keeps us organized. At my former internship we used @HipChat for immediate interaction + file sharing #CommsChat
-
A1 Not sure why a special app is needed. Now there are email apps for mobile which send out push alerts. #commschat
-
Don’t forget to use that #CommsChat hashtag communicators
-
A1 – yes definitely. Apps are easily accessible and more appealing than logging onto a website #commschat
-
@CommsChat absolutely!!! #CommsChat BYOD is gaining traction.
-
@StaffConnectApp Twitter issues, oh no! #CommsChat
-
A1 Companies struggle to get their comms to reach all employees esp NDE’s, apps can overcome this with mobile access to info #CommsChat

Let’s get started, T1: Should companies consider using an app for their internal comms? #CommsChat
