MaraStar Communications Customer Takes a Break with ToonUps from MaraStar

MaraStar training animations designed for companies all over the world, including KIB enterprises communicate information on topics including absenteeism, teamwork and adapting to work environment changes. The result of showing the ToonUps in KIB’s break room has been an increased level of employee interest in company issues and events, as well as a noticeable camaraderie among team members that travels out of the break room and back to their job. KIB Office Manager, Dana Wilson, stated that, “The break room is the ideal venue for the employees to be reminded of important company policies while relaxing with co-workers.”

Wayne, PA (PRWEB) September 13, 2006 -- KIB Enterprises, an Indiana based electronics company, takes MaraStar Communications’ Toon Up application to a new level, incorporating organizational communication into daily life.

A national MaraStar Communications client, KIB Enterprises enjoys a whole new way of delivering their ToonUps to their company employees. KIB now plays Toon Ups on a Power Point presentation that runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week in the company’s break rooms. This unique approach has brought a constant stream of communications to KIB’s 70 plant employees using close circuit TV. And no need to install new technology for employees to enjoy Toonups in their break room. ToonUps can readily and easily be delivered to the breakroom through a spare or even older computer model.

The ToonUps are 30-60 second customized animations, designed to deliver company messages, as well as train and motivate employees. The technology can be delivered using Power Point presentations, emails, intranets and Learning Management Systems. The animations designed specifically for KIB enterprises communicate information on topics including absenteeism, teamwork and adapting to work environment changes. The result of showing the ToonUps in KIB’s break room has been an increased level of employee interest in company issues and events, as well as a noticeable camaraderie among team members that travels out of the break room and back to their job.

KIB Office Manager, Dana Wilson, stated that, “The break room is the ideal venue for the employees to be reminded of important company policies while relaxing with co-workers.” Soon, Dana Wilson expects the MaraStar Communications ToonUp printable posters will be included in the break room as well, continually reinforcing the same topics.

MaraStar Communications leaders are so happy to hear ToonUps has made it into the breakroom. It’s an ideal application that we thought about years ago, and now it’s happening. They plan to introduce the break room loop communication method to their current and future clients. The idea of delivering enjoyable, fun and upbeat workplace reminders to workers while they relax on a break makes sense to the Toon Ups creators.
