“Shift Messenger is a free messaging app for retail and restaurant teams. Coworkers use it to message one another and swap shifts. No need to exchange phone numbers with the whole store!”<\/p>\n

Here are a few things that Shift Messenger can make easier for your team:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Getting shifts covered – Employees and managers can instantly notify coworkers when they need a shift covered.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Saving time – Coworkers and managers save hours that would have been spent making phone calls or text messaging.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Reducing no shows – Everyone has the latest copy of the employee schedule.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Keeping everyone on the same page – Shift or crew leaders can easily make announcements or assign tasks (they can even share a photo to communicate a specific point!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
