Save costs, employee shares generate on average 4 clicks on Facebook. - Engage your employees, 50%+ of employees rank communication and honesty as key factors to drive engagement. - Succeed in recruiting, one third of companies see decreased time to hire, about half find an increase in quality of candidates and 43% in quantity of candidates. - Generate sales, 12% increase in brand advocacy generates a 2x increase in revenue growth. Leads from employee advocacy are 7x more likely to convert. Read the full interview with Smarp's COO Mikael Lauharanta: http://linkhumans.com/podcast/mikael-lauharanta-smarp-employee-advocacy
