After building a no-code employee engagement platform, getting it off the ground, and scaling it, I have a few pieces of advice.
As the CEO of a rapidly growing tech company, hundreds of people have reached out to me, excited about what they’ve been thinking through. They all say the same thing “I have a great idea.” After dreaming of and building a no-code employee engagement platform, getting it off the ground, and scaling it to thousands of customers, I have a few very simple pieces of advice.
Everyone has heard this advice and everyone already knows it. The hardest thing in the world is to simply start. There are a few cliché sayings that genuinely resonate with me:
1. The hardest part by far is simply starting
Everyone has a brilliant idea, but what sets 99.9% of people apart from those who can conceptualize and those who do is simply doing. The hardest part of building a house is laying down the first brick. The hardest part of working out is just going to the gym.
2. If it were easy, everyone would do it
You have to be a little crazy to do a startup. There is no stability, and dozens of unknowns will occur getting the company off the ground, and success will not come without struggle along the way, one way or another.
3. There are no overnight successes
Truth be told, almost all of the overnight success stories you hear are the dramatized and glamorous versions of the truth. The absolute truth is the founders may have been working long days for years, ideating and iterating versions of their product until they found product market fit. So when you hear about these successes and how they’ve started scaling hundreds of percentages per year … impressive it may be, but that success did not happen overnight.
If you want to build a platform, a better process, a new product, a b2b SaaS software, etc., take the first step. The worst thing that can happen is that you fail, but at least you tried, and most people will not even attempt that. So if you can get over the terrifying possibility of failure (which is frightening), you’re already more accomplished than most.
Push harder and make a change. You may find that you may, in fact, succeed.

Explore GuideYes, at Assembly, security is a top priority. Each quarter, we have ongoing security work that is everyone’s responsibility. While we maintain a strong security posture, it was important for us to prove to our customers that we do everything we claim to do. This led us to pursue a SOC 2 Type II report that would provide evidence of our compliance with industry gold-standard security practice.
There is study after study showing that employee recognition leads to increased engagement. This in return creates an environment where employees are happier and more motivated which increase productivity and reduces voluntary turnover significantly. In order to filled critical roles, companies tend to spend nearly twice the value of an annual salary. Assembly is an investment in your employees that supports your bottom line.
Yes, we will offer contracts for companies with longer-term agreements to help larger customers have more certainty around future costs.
The minimum agreement term is a 12-month subscription.
We do and for FREE! Any new customer needing further support to get started with Assembly to ensure you're set up for success can request custom onboarding support. Improving your employee experience is about much more than just using our amazing software; it’s about transforming your business to create a workplace that people love. That’s much easier to do with the personal support and advice from our passionate people experts.
At the time of redemption (when your employees exchange their points for a paid reward) you'll pay face value. If a reward is a $10 Amazon gift card, your cost will be $10. All paid rewards are billed for on a monthly basis.
The good news is that you don't have to pay for rewards upfront because we only charge you when points are redeemed, not when they're earned.
We offer discounts or educational or charitable organizations. In order to secure a discount, you'll first need to book a demo with a customer support specialist.
For all other organizations, we are willing to consider longer-term agreements in exchange for discounts. To set up annual plans or longer, you will need to book a demo with a customer support specialist.
If you're on a month to month plan, you can go here and cancel anytime. If you're having concerns or need help setting up your account for success, you can always book a demo with a customer support specialist.
If you're on a longer-term custom plan, you'll need to reach out to your customer support specialist to cancel your account or email us at support@joinassembly.com.
Great question! You can customize your core values to match your organization's to boost and track alignment. You can change your currency from the 🏆 emoji (our default) to any emoji of your choice. You can swap our logo for your own. You can also set up company culture rewards such as, "Lunch with the CEO," "Buy a book on us," and so much more!
While we recommend a peer to peer set up where anyone in your organization can give or receive recognition, you can set up Assembly however you want. If you need to limit the people who can give or receive recognition, that's perfectly fine and can be done from your Admin, here.
Assembly connects to the tools your employees use every day to offer an easy, seamless experience with minimal change management.
Assembly has integrations with HCM/HRIS systems like ADP, Google, Office 365, and Slack. We also integrate with communication tools like Slack and Teams so you and your employees can access Assembly wherever they work now.
That depends on the company's permissions set up. That said, over 90% of the employees on Assembly's platform are recognized on a monthly basis. That means nearly every employee across all of our customers are receiving regular recognition from their peers, managers, or leadership. We're extremely proud of this.
They are not required. You can use Assembly without having rewards set up. However, we don't recommend it if you intend to have a high adoption and usage rate. You can always keep the costs down by offering internal culture rewards that are fulfilled by you internally.
No, you can remove allowances from anyone or everyone. It's up to you but we do recommend using points whether they're worth a real dollar value or not. Companies that use points have a much higher engagement rate even if those points don't exchange for real dollars.
