Since its founding, the company has serviced over 40,000 retail locations, upgraded 30,000 pieces of hardware, and supported 6,000 store openings.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3077\" data-end=\"3291\">John Fecteau, founder and CEO, has partnered with Field Nation since 2009\u2014both as a client and as a contributor to ongoing product innovation. Worldlink was among the earliest adopters of Field Nation\u2019s platform.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3293\" data-end=\"3434\">Worldlink\u2019s client-first approach has earned the company a 95+% customer satisfaction rate and a 99.7% first-time operational success rate.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3436\" data-end=\"3773\">\u201cOur product is feet on the street,\u201d said Fecteau. \u201cUltimately, what distinguishes us is how we manage those feet on the street. Field Nation helps us effectively communicate with and manage technicians. That\u2019s why we run all of our work orders through the Field Nation platform, whether we use contractors or marketplace technicians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3775\" data-end=\"4028\">During the retail surge at the end of 2021, Field Nation helped Worldlink manage a dramatic uptick in projects, increasing work order volume by 78%. According to Fecteau, Field Nation has \u201cnot necessarily created the fire, but added fuel to the fire.\u201d<\/p>\n<a name=\"doing-more-with-less\" class=\"fldn-table-of-contents-anchor\"><\/a><h2 data-start=\"4035\" data-end=\"4060\" data-start=\"4035\" data-end=\"4060\" id=\"doing-more-with-less\">Doing more with less<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"4062\" data-end=\"4349\">After the pandemic, Worldlink sought to meet growing customer demands without adding headcount. The company turned to <a href=\"https:\/\/fieldnation.com\/platform-management\"><strong data-start=\"4180\" data-end=\"4234\">Field Nation\u2019s Platform Management Partner Program<\/strong><\/a>, which leverages trusted partners to support technician vetting, work order management, and dispatch operations.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4351\" data-end=\"4630\">Through the <a href=\"\/premier\"><strong data-start=\"4363\" data-end=\"4387\">Field Nation Premier<\/strong><\/a> suite\u2014featuring PeopleSmart Talent Management, WorkSmart Productivity Suite, and <a href=\"\/marketsmart\">MarketSmart\u2122 Insight<\/a>s\u2014Worldlink gained access to advanced tools that streamlined coordination, improved visibility, and strengthened labor management at scale.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4632\" data-end=\"4765\">This approach enabled Worldlink to onboard clients faster, reduce errors, and focus internal resources on higher-value initiatives.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4767\" data-end=\"4952\">\u201cOur partner is very focused on quality control and transactional activities,\u201d Fecteau said. \u201cThis allows our internal employees to focus on client outcomes and more strategic tasks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4954\" data-end=\"5091\">The company\u2019s partner support has been so seamless that, according to Fecteau, he has \u201cno qualms about engaging them with any clients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5093\" data-end=\"5342\">Even with a lean post-pandemic team, Worldlink continues to \u201cdo more with less\u201d by integrating Field Nation\u2019s tools and partner network. For a current 1,000-location retail rollout, Worldlink has reduced project coordination time by more than 80%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the Service Partner Program,
