WIL FISCHER X EVERLANCE: HOW A BEVERAGE DISTRIBUTOR ATTRACTED MORE EMPLOYEES
WITH A USER-FRIENDLY MILEAGE PLATFORM


BEFORE EVERLANCE, THE DISTRIBUTOR TRIED A MILEAGE TRACKER THAT FELL SHORT ON
USER EXPERIENCE, HURTING ADOPTION. NOW, WITH EVERLANCE, TEAM MEMBERS ARE
PROACTIVELY ASKING TO USE THEIR PERSONAL VEHICLES AND RECEIVE MILEAGE
REIMBURSEMENT.

WITH EVERLANCE BUSINESS, WIL FISCHER COMPANIES

 * Saved money and gave flexibility to employees by extending their
   reimbursement program to more team members
 * Avoided major capital outlays for new vehicle purchases as they added staff
 * Saved time with a more user-friendly, reliable mileage tracking system


ABOUT WIL FISCHER COMPANIES



Founded in 1966, Wil Fischer is a Midwest distributor for alcoholic and
non-alcoholic beverages, including Anheuser-Busch brands and craft beers.
They’re headquartered in Springfield, Missouri, and operate four facilities from
which they serve 32 counties and over 2,000 customers across Northwest,
Southeast and Southwest Missouri, as well as Wyandotte county in Kansas.

Employee well-being, customer service, honesty, integrity and environmental
stewardship are crucial to Wil Fischer’s mission. And with over 70 employees who
spend most of their time on the road, mileage reimbursement is an important part
of that. They want to ensure team members are reimbursed for driving their
personal vehicles in a fair and timely manner, based on accurate mileage logs.

CHALLENGES & PROBLEMS


Sean Taylor

Wil Fischer had implemented another mileage tracking software solution, but they
were encountering some major challenges with the current solution: namely, that
the merchandising team struggled to use it. 

 * Tools were too complex:
   Although their previous mileage tracking tool had a lot of features, the user
   experience was too complex. Sean Taylor, Vice President of Business
   Administration, had originally chosen the tool for its varied features, but
   soon realized it was making for a difficult user experience. 
   ‍
 * Software wasn’t user-friendly: 
   ‍Sean saw the problem was in the software’s usability. It just wasn’t
   intuitive enough for their managers and drivers. From an admin perspective,
   the software was clunky too. For example, Favorite Places were managed on a
   user-by-user basis, so any customer or employee changes made for a huge
   administrative headache.

 * Wasting time:
   ‍Since the software wasn’t very user-friendly, Sean had to remain very
   involved in the day-to-day management. Instead of increasing efficiency, the
   software was actually taking up his time because the team had trouble
   adopting it on their own.

Ultimately, Sean decided to look for a new solution. He wanted all the same
capabilities, but with a user experience that worked for all team members, not
just the most tech savvy.



SOLUTION: WIL FISCHER TURNS TO EVERLANCE BUSINESS TO MEET BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS
WHILE DELIVERING A USER-FRIENDLY PLATFORM


EVERLANCE PROVIDED A TECH-BASED SOLUTION TO AUTOMATICALLY CREATE ACCURATE
MILEAGE REPORTS

For Wil Fischer companies, finding a tech-based solution to solve business
problems comes naturally. It’s all part of their strategy to grow through
advanced sales and operational execution. As a result, applying technology to
simply the mileage reimbursement process just made sense.

However, it turned out that finding the right technological solution for mileage
tracking and reimbursements wasn’t so straightforward.

> For the employee that’s actually on the streets, tracking your mileage with
> pen and paper or notepad on your phone, you’re going to forget and you’re not
> going to be accurate. If it’s something that’s happening in the background of
> your phone, you don’t have to worry about it. And we get an accurate portrayal
> of what actually happened.
> 
> ‍Sean Taylor
> Vice President, Business Administration

Their primary business requirement? A solution that could produce accurate
mileage reports, automatically.

It might sound basic, but beyond the tool they were using, Wil Fischer had
tested older solutions that just weren’t reliable. They wouldn’t start tracking
until someone was three or four miles down the road, instead of knowing the
moment someone left a customer and tracking the trip’s mileage from the
beginning. Employees wouldn’t be happy about the missing miles.

However, the tool they were using fell short in the user experience, leaving
them to reconsider their options. After considering the landscape, Sean saw
Everlance was the only solution that would meet their business requirements and
provide the user experience they needed.

When putting Everlance to the test, Sean confirmed that the app’s GPS-based
tracking always captured his miles accurately. Bottom line, “it works,” says
Sean.


Everlance's easy-to-use driver and admin dashboard makes tracking and approving
trips easy.


‍
SAVED TIME WITH A USER-FRIENDLY SOFTWARE THAT ENABLES THE MILEAGE TRACKING AND
REIMBURSEMENT PROCESS TO RUN ON ITS OWN

Before Everlance, Sean had to spend a lot of time each week working closely with
reviewing and approving mileage reports, as well as managing the software. Now,
he can take a step back, and the team knows what to do day-to-day.

He’s available to support as needed, but the entire process runs smoothly on its
own:

 * When new drivers are hired, HR easily gets them set up and trained. All they
   need to do is send an invitation link.
 * Mileage tracking and report submissions are a breeze for all drivers. Since
   Everlance automatically and accurately tracks all their trips, they only have
   to classify their mileage and submit their report.
 * Approving reports is straightforward for supervisors. They know the mileage
   is genuine because it’s tracked via GPS. They can quickly verify trips are
   work-related because most show customer names as their origin or destination,
   and if not, detailed route maps are available for them to review.
 * Paying approved reports happens quickly through Payroll. And if any questions
   arise, the IT manager can handle them.

Not only has switching to Everlance saved Sean time, but it’s also made things
easier for drivers, supervisors and payroll teams.

INCREASED EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION AND PRODUCTIVITY THROUGH TIMELY AND
STRAIGHTFORWARD REIMBURSEMENT PROCESSES

Sean was impressed by Everlance’s user-friendly interface on the app as well as
the manager dashboard. Given he was focused on his team’s experience and
enabling them to use whatever solution he chose on their own, he decided to make
the switch.

Once they had switched to Everlance Business, Sean saw a significant improvement
in adoption and usage. This has led to time savings across the board, and more
flexibility and satisfaction for employees to use personal vehicles for work and
know they’ll get reimbursed on time, for every mile they drive.


For full-time drivers who accumulate a lot of mileage, it has prevented a lot of
frustration. At the end of the day, they can look through full route maps for
all their trips and classify them with a swipe. This accurate and reliable
reporting ensures that they receive a fair reimbursement.

In fact, as everyone got comfortable with Everlance, word of the benefits spread
among employees and adoption blossomed. Team members who were using company cars
have proactively asked to use their personal vehicles instead, and get
reimbursed for mileage.

> It just takes one employee making the first move. We had one sales rep who
> came forward and said it was actually a waste of time for them to drive back
> and forth picking up and dropping off their company vehicle. They asked,
> ‘would it be okay with you guys if I just drove my own vehicle and got paid
> mileage?’

> We granted that and now, because it's been a success for her, we've had other
> employees come forward and say, ‘hey, I would like to do this too.’ So now,
> we've got five people that we would have normally put into company vehicles
> that are now driving their personal vehicles.
> 
> Sean Taylor
> Vice President, Business Administration


ENABLED WIL FISCHER TO SCALE THEIR TEAM WHILE KEEPING COSTS LOW BY DOWNSIZING
THEIR COMPANY FLEET

Sean also credits Everlance with upfront cost savings and more even cash flows.
As they’ve grown their business and added to their staff, they’re having most
new employees drive their personal vehicle instead of company cars—a direction
that’s only possible because they trust Everlance to accurately track mileage.

In the past, they would have had to purchase new company vehicles for every
person they’re adding to their salesforce. With current supply chain issues
making new cars so hard to get and so expensive, it has saved them a lot of
money.

In addition, since Sean doesn’t have to manually approve mileage reports,
scaling their team up while still managing mileage reimbursement processes has
become much easier.

> We know for a fact that we have not had to buy any new cars because we trust
> that Everlance is working. It's allowed us to save the capital outlay of
> purchasing vehicles at a time when prices are so over inflated. Those
> companies who are trying to buy vehicles are having a tough time. It's been an
> unforeseen blessing in disguise.
> 
> Sean Taylor
> Vice President, Business Administration

From a cash flow standpoint, it means they’re paying mileage reimbursement every
two weeks instead of taking a major one-time hit to purchase the vehicle. They
also save on the costs and headache of car maintenance. With even car parts so
hard to get right now, they don’t have to worry about struggling to get vehicles
fixed quickly if issues arise.


THE BOTTOM LINE: 

Once Wil Fischer switched to using Everlance Business to manage mileage, they
were able to: 

 * Significantly improve employee adoption and user experience through
   best-in-class technology and outstanding customer service 
 * Improve accuracy and fairness of mileage reimbursements with automatic GPS
   tracking 
 * Save time on reimbursement processes with Everlance’s software 
 * Save money by expanding their reimbursement program and cutting back on
   company fleet size
