Kimps Ace Hardware Shines a Light on Employees

At Kimps Ace Hardware in Green Bay, Wisconsin, employees receive some extra love and recognition thanks to employee spotlights on the store’s Facebook page.

Social media coordinator Maddy Bowker says she came up with the idea to do the employee spotlights because she wanted the store’s customers to see people on social media who they would also see in the store.

“The program creates a more familiar environment because customers see familiar faces online and in-person. I have only been showcasing employees for a few weeks now, and I believe it helps get to know different department members and employees at other stores,” Bowker says. “The employees have been enjoying learning about their co-workers and being showcased.”
