Operational Impact
The use of Gem has resulted in significant operational improvements for Wheel. The tool has provided the company with valuable insights into what content and messaging resonate with different demographic groups, enabling them to tailor their outreach efforts more effectively. The automation of outreaches and the provision of contact information have saved time and increased efficiency.
