Case Study: Vessel NOLA achieves lower labor costs and streamlined scheduling with Sling

Vessel NOLA - Customer Case Study

Vessel NOLA, a celebrated restaurant and bar in New Orleans (part of the same group as The Bulldog), struggled with inconsistent, manager-specific Excel schedules that were hard to access from corporate or staff levels and provided no reliable way to predict labor costs or prevent overtime. To address this, they turned to Sling’s scheduling and communication app.

Sling provided a single, linked view of all schedules and forecast tools that let management predict labor costs, flag overtime, and make quick adjustments, saving time in schedule creation. As a result, Vessel NOLA reports significantly improved labor costs, the ability to verify staffing against forecasted sales before the week begins, and higher schedule quality—Sling is now their sole scheduling and communication system.
