The business challenge
SeedBlink is a company with a high-reaching vision and a performance-driven culture, so they naturally saw the advantages of adopting a performance management software like Mirro. The team also values transparent and continuous feedback and understands the importance of recognition.
As such, the company was looking for an all-in-one HR solution to help them grow their performance efforts while simplifying HR processes and improving team collaboration. They found it all in Mirro. The user experience has been exceptionally smooth, and the engagement features have resonated well with the team. Mirro's flexibility has also been crucial for seamlessly integrating it into SeedBlink's processes.
The solution: Mirro

One of the main reasons SeedBlink chose Mirro was the Performance module. Mirro's "social" aspects and engagement features also heavily influenced the decision.
What truly set Mirro apart from other platforms during the demos was its friendly, smooth, and simple user experience.
This ease of use is essential for SeedBlink, aligning perfectly with their "Make it happen" values and "Love the journey". Mirro's interface helps team members see and interact with their progress, making the process transparent and engaging.
SeedBlink's HR team took a strategic and engaging approach to ensure a successful implementation of Mirro. They used internal newsletters to generate curiosity and build momentum, giving team members teasers and sneak peeks of the platform. This early engagement helped create anticipation for the launch.
Once Mirro was launched, the HR team moved internal announcements to the platform. This shift encouraged more interaction, as people didn't want to miss out on important company updates. The transition of the internal kudos channel to Mirro was also particularly successful. It became self-sustaining as people started recognizing their colleagues and keeping track of their accomplishments.
To further encourage Mirro usage, the HR team and managers encouraged their people to perform specific actions on the platform. This method significantly increased interaction and familiarity with Mirro. As people began to understand the platform and its benefits, using Mirro became a natural part of their daily routines.
