Starlight and Wingmate announce mobile app integration

Waste hauling and recycling ERP expands to connect drivers to sales.

Denver-based Starlight LLC and Toronto-based Wingmate have announced their partnership to integrate the Wingmate mobile lead gen platform within Starlight’s Driver mobile application.

Available beginning Feb. 3, Starlight drivers can generate sales leads and transmit them in real time to the sales staff by pointing the phone at the opportunity to geo-tag it, and then talking into the app to provide details. Starlight’s integration of Wingmate is designed so hauling companies can start benefiting from opportunities employees identify daily in the normal course of operations and travel.

“We run Wingmate ourselves at 5280 Waste Solutions and we’ve been very happy using it with our own drivers,” says Bill Bradley, CEO of Starlight LLC and 5280 Waste Solutions. “Wingmate has paid for itself several times over. Our drivers like it because they can track and get paid for the leads they generate, and our other staff uses it, too. It’s a great way to capture, organize and pursue leads on the fly as the team runs around the city in daily operations.”

With information such as new job sites, competitive activity and locations sometimes slipping through the cracks, the companies say Wingmate can multiply these opportunities and present them instantly to sales staff to pursue.

“The most appreciated part of our Wingmate platform is the ease of use. The solution is something drivers, salespeople and managers can really get behind and enjoy,” says Matt Leuschner, president of Wingmate.
