Blissbook Now Has Automatic Reminders
Happy October! We just had the second-hottest September on record here in Atlanta, so we’re hoping the calendar change will bring some shade.
That said, we’re staying hot at Blissbook, as we just launched automatic reminders! Now you can set up a cadence of reminders to be sent to all the slackers out there who won’t sign their handbook. Get in touch with us if you want to be one of the first to try it out.
As always, the Bugle is here with the best HR, leadership, and policy management articles we found from the last couple of weeks. Enjoy!
