The customer: Meet Gamesight
Gamesight is a marketing platform for video game publishers to build community, engage influencers, and measure their digital marketing performance. The company offers integrated products, data insights, battle-tested experience, and a flexible platform model to help everyone from small Indie studios to AAA giants drive revenue for their games.
Jess Leonard, Chief of Staff, works to ensure that all members of the Gamesight team have the resources needed to do their job well and have an excellent employee experience! This includes but isn’t limited to: creating thoughtful onboarding routines, developing meaningful engagement opportunities, initiating learning and development processes and assisting the leadership team.
Jess was in need of a tool that would help keep hiring processes, organizational structure, and training materials organized as the company grew.
Let’s review how Jess and her team used Fellow to refine Gamesight’s internal processes.
The challenge: Disorganized meeting notes in Google Docs
Meeting notes help you remember important details and information so that you can complete your assigned action items and make strides towards your goals. They’re also a useful accountability tool for employees and managers alike!
Before Fellow, Gamesight employees used Google Docs to take notes during meetings. Jess told us that it was challenging to keep track of who had access to notes and that her team often struggled to organize and store their documents. She knew that Google Docs wasn’t making their internal communications any smoother and that it was time to switch to an alternative.
When Jess came across Fellow, the Gamesight team was experiencing many firsts. Gamesight had around 10 new hires join the team, and they needed to get organized fast. Jess tested different products and wasn’t happy with what the other tools had to offer.
What sold Jess on Fellow was that she knew it would make it easier for her team to run effective meetings.
The solution: An intuitive tool to help manage meetings and internal processes
By the time Gamesight implemented Fellow, other employees were frustrated by their existing meeting processes, or lack thereof. Jess said that implementing Fellow was an effortless undertaking.
When asked how Fellow has assisted Jess in her role as Chief of Staff, she said it has helped her tackle routine onboarding tasks and performance evaluations throughout the year.
Jess explained that her team couldn’t live without Fellow’s Slack integration, which makes it easy to send reminders out before meetings. Her team also enjoys how interactive the tool is!
Effective communication is the key to a healthy workplace culture. Fellow helps iDeals employees collaborate across departments to ensure everyone is working together towards a common goal.
Results: Shortening the road to the goal! 🎉
They say a good system shortens the road to the goal.
Jess had hoped Fellow would help her team be more prepared for meetings, and it did just that. With newfound organization, Gamesight employees are now able to bring their best selves to every meeting.
Plus, Fellow’s variety of meeting agenda templates and other user-friendly features like Streams have helped the team stay on task and improve their workflow. With Fellow, Jess can review everything from to-do lists to team OKRs.
As a result of Fellow, Jess and her team are more productive than ever. With organized meetings, there are fewer opportunities to waste time and more room for collaboration.
When asked about how Gamesight’s meeting culture has changed since implementing Fellow, Jess said:
While other project management tools have been known to scare other Chiefs of Staff or Heads of Operations away because of their steep learning curves, Fellow keeps things cool.
