PeopleLinx is currently working with 5 Jersey Mike’s groups across 100+ stores, in 6 states. This program has given them:
A predictable pipeline of local opportunities
Increased store-level accountability around outreach
A shift from reactive sales to Proactive revenue generation
The Bigger Picture
“Before this, we were mostly reacting to orders, now we’re actually building relationships in our local markets. What’s surprised us most isn’t just the number of orders, it’s how often these accounts come back. Some of our best customers today started from a single outreach message.”
