Case Study: myEDmatch improves teacher retention and streamlines hiring with Salesforce

myEDmatch - Customer Case Study

myEDmatch, founded by Alicia Herald, addresses chronic teacher turnover that disrupts student learning and costs cities millions annually. Herald applied an “online dating” model to education, building a Salesforce-powered platform (including Salesforce Communities) that lets school communities create profiles and find teachers who fit specific classroom and student needs.

With Salesforce as its backend, the small myEDmatch team manages a nationwide school database and enables efficient candidate review, interviewing, and hiring; nearly 450 paying customers—from single-site charters to large districts—use the service. The result is faster, data-driven placements that improve teacher satisfaction and retention, help students get better matches, and support sustainable business growth.
