How a large Influencer Agency Launched their Talent Platform with Bubty
Business Challenges
While using spreadsheets as a Freelancer Management System (FMS), they discovered it was unreliable, labor-intensive, and prone to inconsistent data. The company needed a centralized and efficient way to onboard, manage, and allocate the right talent to projects at volume while mitigating risks, improving user experiences, and scaling.
Talent Management
Challenge
The company struggled to create a centralized hub for onboarding and managing over 400 freelancers effectively. They required a unified platform to handle the entire talent lifecycle, including onboarding, outreach, data tracking, availability visibility, project allocation, and general communications.
Opportunity
With Bubty, the company has successfully centralized and streamlined the management of their entire freelance workforce, encompassing onboarding, project management, and payments. Bubty now collects, manages, and tracks all freelancer-specific information for the company seamlessly.
Data Accuracy and Searchability
Challenge
The company required a structured method to organize and sift through freelancer profiles, ensuring they selected the top talent for projects. They aimed to minimize manual data entry and mitigate risks associated with inaccurate data.
Opportunity
With Bubty, the company was able to shift the responsibility of data accuracy to their freelancers by enabling them to input and manage their own profile information. The company determined which information to collect and when, automating the process for freelancers to respond accordingly. The company also implemented Bubtys advanced filtering features, allowing them to sift through profiles and matchmake seamlessly.
Talent Experience
Challenge
The company wanted to enhance their talent experiences to alleviate communication lapses, receive updated and accurate information, and to streamline the project matchmaking process.
Opportunity
With Bubty, the company was able to provide each freelancer access to their individual profile that allowed them to set up their details, answer questions deemed necessary by the company, reply to communications directly, view and apply to job opportunities, and keep their information updated all within one portal. No more shifting between multiple tools and emails.
Talent Roster Health
Challenge
The company required comprehensive analytics of their talent network to make informed decisions while expanding their pool of freelancers. They needed insights into the number of freelancers with specific skill sets within their talent pool, volume of hiring options in various regions, availability overviews, performance feedback, and more.
Opportunity
With Bubty, the company was able to create an analytics report detailing all information required to inform decision making while expanding. They were also able to create additional reports to measure performance of workflows, talent experiences, and more.
Value Delivery
By leveraging Bubty’s platform, the company has enhanced their end-to-end FMS, encompassing onboarding, project management, payment tracking, and forecasting freelancer roster health.
