Marston's PLC Relies on Send Word Now to Communicate With Employees Across the UK
NEW YORK, NY, Feb 12, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Send Word Now, the leading worldwide provider of emergency
notification and on-demand alerting and response services, announced
today that Marston's PLC, the UK's leading independent brewing and
pub retailing business, relies on its notification platform to
communicate with managers and distribution sites across the UK. The
company uses Send Word Now for all types of business-critical
communication, from emergency notification, to updates on staff
changes and messages containing time-sensitive shareholder
information.
Since implementing Send Word Now, Marston's has been particularly
impressed by the company's dedication and commitment to the UK
market: "Even though Send Word Now is based in the United States, the
company is incredibly responsive to our needs," explained Harriet
Wood, Business Continuity Coordinator. "They are happy to implement
UK-specific changes into their platform, and they regularly send
senior managers and executives to UK trade shows."
"In the United Kingdom, emergency notification is a relatively new
industry, and many companies here are just starting out," added Wood.
"Send Word Now has a strong client base and is very experienced in
large-scale alerts. This gave us reassurance that we weren't going to
be a test case for how well the system works. We knew that the system
already worked really well before we implemented it."
"We are very happy to be able to provide our services to Marston's
PLC," said Tony Schmitz, President and CEO of Send Word Now. "As Send
Word Now continues to expand throughout the European markets, we
remain dedicated to providing the same service, security, and
customer support that we have come to pride ourselves since our
founding. We look forward to continuing to support Marston's and
other companies in the region with their emergency communication
efforts."
