“Moving into international markets was slow, time consuming, and more expensive. Polyglot simplified all of that for us, and their customer support was (and continues to be) excellent.”
- Tasha Liniger, CHRO, Dialpad
Dialpad aimed to expand its product operations into Australia and New Zealand to tap into the growing market opportunities and enhance their global presence. However, they faced a significant hurdle, the absence of a local entity. As a result, they needed to act fast, far quicker than traditional methods would allow. The urgency stemmed from the need to capitalise on the rapid adoption of flexible work solutions in these regions.
Dialpad faced significant challenges:
Determined to establish a local presence without delay, Dialpad sought an efficient and immediate solution. Consequently, this led them to partner with Polyglot Group.
To expand quickly and efficiently on an international scale, Dialpad invested in an Employer on Record (EOR) solution, which we provided.
Recognising the urgency and complexity of Dialpad’s expansion into Australia and New Zealand, we embarked on a comprehensive approach:
By adapting quickly to Dialpad’s urgent timeline and providing flexible, speedy solutions, we ensured a smooth and efficient market entry, out all-encompassing EOR services made the process faster, easier, and more cost-effective for Dialpad enabling them to capitalise on the rapid adoption of flexible work solutions in Australia and New Zealand.
“Polyglot provided a partnership that allowed us to enter new markets faster and with more flexibility.” – Tasha Liniger, CHRO, Dialpad
Our fast turn-around and human-centric philosophy helped Dialpad expand into Australia and New Zealand in record time.
We helped grow the Australian team to a point that we have now transferred our EOR services to their own Australian entity established by Dialpad. For New Zealand, we are still assisting in their growth using EOR services.
Over the course of our partnership, Dialpad has almost doubled in size with over 1000 employees.
“Much of that expansion was outside of North America and Polyglot allowed us to hire in a number of regions where we didn’t have operations.” Tasha Liniger, CHRO, Dialpad
Our services are designed to nourish and grow businesses to help them reach their full potential. Our desire to help businesses flourish drives us to go above and beyond for our clients. This passion and urgency had us halving our usual turnaround times to make Dialpad’s dream a reality.
