"Better Deals than our own!"

Linda Lykke, Department Manager Service & HR Administration in Ericsson, says: "We had about 30 staff deals in the past. Many of the deals were arranged by the employees themselves and we managed them through our intranet. We wanted to extend the deals but it was rather a big task and a time consuming process to negotiate and maintain the deals and we did not have the resources internally to do the job ourselves.

One of our employees recommended that we contact LogBuy. We soon realised that LogBuy knew what they were talking about and had an excellent product in handling the Employee Deals.

For instance, where we previously had spent months building up a website for the employee deals, we could now link to LogBuy's website from our intranet.

We therefore decided to outsource the handling of the employee deals to LogBuy. With this cooperation, we wrote and contacted our suppliers with whom we had employee deals and explained about our future cooperation with LogBuy. Later LogBuy contacted our suppliers and made agreements with more than 90% of them - in most cases better deals than our own ones!

We introduced the concept in a positive way to our employees and we received very positive feedback. For instance a new, happy house owner was very pleased about all of the deals within the House & Home section!

We are very pleased with the product. It saves us a lot of time and gives us the possibility to offer our employees an even better staff benefit. The e-mail service is an excellent way of making our own staff aware of any new deals. At the same time, we avoid having to administer various purchasing vouchers - now our employees can just show their LogBuy Staff Card when they are entitled to a discount in the shops."
