“We provide a variety of programs for franchisees to use and simplifying use and accessibility is always a priority.” said Ted Asbury, Chief Marketing Officer, WOWorks. “The implementation of the SOCi platform helps do both while empowering franchisees to take ownership of their local marketing efforts in making their own presence even larger in their respective market.”

Through SOCi Social, Listings, and Reviews, WOWorks and its franchisees are able to streamline the management of countless guest-facing digital channels to ensure quick and personalized review responses, accurate location information, and engaging social content that its guests find valuable across all of its restaurant brands.

“Managing digital marketing channels for a single multi-location brand can be a challenge in itself, but the consolidation factor for companies like WOWorks, which operates multiple restaurant brands, is crucial as the channels start to add up to the hundreds and eventually thousands,” said David Marler, Chief Customer Officer, SOCi. “Being able to address the needs of its guests across channels in one streamlined platform was a top priority for the WOWorks team, and we’re proud to help them take their guest relations to the next level.”
