I wanted to find a platform that helps me grow and supports this business that I started on my couch by myself. Finding Zoom was exactly that.

Owner, Referral Staffing SolutionsEvery business has its origin story. While some businesses started in a basement or as a big idea on a napkin, Referral Staffing Solutions launched from Shobi Zietlow’s living room couch. Today, it boasts 50 employees spread across two locations, providing recruitment services and job placements that connect businesses with talented employees in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
In order for RSS to be successful, the team depends heavily on video, voice, and collaboration technology to communicate with clients and prospective employees. When RSS began to experience frustrations with its software solutions, it was time to find a new provider that could deliver a reliable and streamlined approach as well as contribute to business growth.
“I wanted to find a platform that helps me grow and supports this business that I started on my couch by myself,” Shobi said.
Zoom’s all-in-one platform helps RSS cut costs and increase productivity
As a small business owner, Shobi wears multiple hats and needed a solution that would consolidate costs and improve efficiency among her staff. She ultimately chose Zoom’s UCaaS platform for its ease of use and functionality across multiple applications. To have the features and services she needed offered by one provider made it even easier for Shobi to choose Zoom.
I am not only the IT department, but I’m also the billing department. Being able to pay one invoice versus multiple invoices has saved me a huge amount of time. From a training perspective, getting new employees up to speed on one tool instead of several has saved them a lot of time, as well.

And because it works on any device, Zoom Phone enables RSS employees to work from anywhere through a single application.
“If I’m traveling from location to location, I have the Zoom Phone app on my phone,” she said. “I can have seamless communication while I’m on the road, and I’m able to bounce between locations depending on what the needs are.”
Zoom UCaaS solutions help RSS increase call volume by 25%
This improved connectivity doesn’t just equate to more flexible work environments; it helped RSS experience a 25% increase in call volume, contributing to higher revenue opportunities for the business.
Communication with people is how we operate and how we grow our business. If our phones don’t ring that means we're not making money. Zoom Phone allows us to build relationships with local businesses and with candidates alike.

“I know I can rely on Referral Staffing Solutions to help me find candidates that fill our openings and help with our mission, which is keeping rural communities thriving and keeping family farms going,” said Kaitlyn Fritsch, human resources generalist at Organic Valley.
Communication remains paramount to small business growth
With more than two offices and 50-plus employees, Referral Staffing Solutions continues to expand and appreciates Zoom’s reliability to enable its business growth.
“We need to communicate with candidates and we need to communicate with customers. We could never have done it without Zoom,” Shobi said. “Whether it’s the mobile app on my cell phone or the app on our desktop, Zoom Phone, Team Chat, and Meetings allow us to maintain that communication.”
