Our Story
We’re a group of former retail professionals here to transform how retail operates with software and know-how that enables best-in-class brands to be amazing.
Hi, my name is Melissa and I’m the co-founder of Zipline. I spent 10 years at one of the largest specialty retailers in North America focused on getting stores to execute to brand standards. It was a struggle. After hundreds of conversations with store managers, district leaders, HQ employees and peers across the industry, I realized that the breakdown in store execution is a result of ineffective communication.
Email, portal sites and old technologies are slow, archaic and hard to use. They don’t align field leaders or engage Associates in an effective way. It doesn’t need to be so hard. Technology can now automate manual processes, personalize content to individual users, remind teams of the work that needs to be done and provide easy reporting into execution. Everything can be done in a super streamlined, easy and engaging way.
Zipline is the answer to how to get better store execution, which ultimately leads to profitable sales. It’s the store communication solution that I always wanted to exist, and is the result of my years in retail.
Today more than 75 brands around the world use, and love us to improve their business. I invite you to try us and see why.
