Our Solution
Why Yourco is the Right Solution?
One of the primary reasons non-desk employees aren’t engaging with digital communication channels is that those channels simply don’t work for them.
Tools like email, Microsoft Teams, and Slack, are designed with desk-based employees in mind — not the blue collar, non-desk workforce who are on the shop floor, out in the field, or working production lines. Typically, these employees don’t receive a company email (because in our experience, they wouldn’t look at it anyway).

At Yourco, we understand that these employees need a tool that’s crafted for their specific needs. That’s why we built Yourco on SMS infrastructure.

Accessible
Text messaging is already on all of your employees’ cell phones.
Effective
98% of text messages get read, while only 20% of emails do.
