Introducing a new way to search on Workgrounds ๐
Just describe the type of hotel you're looking for โ in your own words โ and our AI search does the rest.
Try things like "modern hotels north of the river in Austin" or "artsy hotels for 25 in Miami" https://t.co/eSAd7rbugr
Introducing the new Workgrounds Flight Estimator โ a free tool to help you estimate the costs of multiple destinations and choose the best location for your next company gathering.
Give it a try and let us know what you think! https://t.co/ALtXhWyeAA
Remote teams are constantly online. So when do they truly disconnect? Not often.
Thatโs why Lauren Layton from @storyarb wanted to plan a week-long retreat where everyone could be fully off the clock.
Her idea: Summer camp for adults โ๏ธ https://t.co/5UaA1by99R
Let's talk food & beverage minimums โ an important (but often misunderstood) part of planning company gatherings that can make or break your budget.
Hereโs everything you need to know: https://t.co/8R6a1fszTx
Most of @Lithic's 170-person team is fully remote, which works for most of the year. But it's tough to stay aligned without some good in-person time too.
So they think of company gatherings as essential business infrastructure โ not just team-building. https://t.co/rHcWKjQ0bG
We helped @SeatGeek automate the most complex parts of group travel, capturing savings across 800 employees and 2,500+ room nights!
It resulted in simpler budgeting, cleaner reconciliation, and a 30% reduction in hotel costs.

Fintech company @TryRamp quickly realized their travel challenges had outgrown traditional tools.
With 800+ employees, they needed a system that would help them scale in-person gatherings without adding more overhead.
Workgrounds became that system: https://t.co/ovjm8KYLOU
New feature alert! ๐จ
You can now send invite reminders with a single click in Workgrounds, eliminating the need to chase people who didn't respond.
It's a small feature that saves hours. But don't just take our word for it! Here's what @realnoahg, CEO at @stacker, had to say:
When you plan a team gathering, every choice says something. So you have to choose a venue and activities that reflect your companyโs values and goals.ย
As Susannah Banks (@RevenueCat) says: Stop booking the easy option and start booking the right one. https://t.co/h3dtNWfuS8
You would think every room in a hotel room block would be the same, but that's rarely the case. Sometimes you need suites for leadership. Or international travelers need an extra night. Maybe one team is arriving a day early.
Sorting through all of that used to be a manual process. Organizers would invite everyone, then go back and make all the changes. But now they don't have to.
Our new room-specific invites on @Workgrounds let you select a subset of guests, assign them to a specific room type or date range, and send their invites in bulk. Organizers can see everything, but each guest can only see and claim the room type meant for them.
In just two hours, @PebblePostPDM completed two months of work. John Germinario, their Head of People, explains how you can do the same.
We'll give you a hint: You need a mix of both structured all-hands content AND unstructured "run the business" time. https://t.co/l60HdeP0Kz
There are so many types of travel, meaning there's no one owner at most orgs.
We built Workgrounds for anyone who plans company gatherings, from EAs to finance to HR to managersโฆ and everyone in between.
CEO @nsethi talks about it on @nvpcap's podcast: https://t.co/p9FWO7ubpD
The companies that get the most out of their gatherings don't fill every minute from 9 to 6. They leave room for the unexpected.
@RevenueCat Chief of Staff Susannah Banks explains why: https://t.co/nHSUJdH4Gc
Watch our co-founder @nsethi discuss how he creates value for customers and focuses relentlessly on outcomes while building AI agents at Workgrounds.
Thanks to @nvpcap's Jennifer Solomon and the Between Two Quarters podcast for the great conversation! ๐๏ธ
