WCC: What is your best business success story?
Circling back to our purpose, we’ve served up hundreds of well-being hours, cut CO2 emissions for our planet and eliminated hundreds of car rides. We’ve also built more community and connections through group events. Our service providers are growing their mobile businesses, and we continue to grow our provider base.
We’ve been extremely busy over the past six months in partnering with National companies and rolling out within their Winnipeg offices, and supporting their employee’s well-being. We’ve had chair massage days, car service days, dry cleaning pick-ups, mobile haircuts, wine and fitness classes, group smoothie events and more. Q1 is on with peazy’s continued roll-out in more partnered locations.
WCC: Why did you join The Chamber?
We wanted to connect with the companies that have partnered with The Chamber for trial, provider partnership and the network opportunities the events provide. We are looking forward to continuing to build our services marketplace and serving you across the city.
It’s peazy when an employee discovers they can get their tires swapped or oil changed, right in the parking lot at the office. They don’t need to take the morning off to deal with this. They stay focused on work while peazy takes care of it. The day is simpler. Well-being improves. Car is ready to go. Done.
WCC: What would you say to someone who is on the fence about joining The Chamber?
Why say no? It’s a strong network; it’s affordable, it provides access to resources and referrals, and it’s also fun to connect with like-minded business people and learn from one another.
