Can companies compete with other companies in a step challenge?

[CLarson819]

Our company has a wellness program and we recently completed an employee step challenge (predetermined teams) within that program. It came up in a  meeting yesterday as an idea to challenge another company to a step challenge. Does anyone know if we can do that thru Fitbit? Has anyone's else's company ever considered doing that before? Thanks!

@CLarson819 - have someone set up two challenge groups https://www.fitbit.com/groups/create

Call them something like:

Company A vs Company B (A employees)

Company A vs Company B (B employees)

Each month you can compare: members, steps, miles, active minutes

At the end of each week you could do an average (the numbers divided by # of members) and compare the top people from each company.  You could do whatever comparisons you wanted.

Thanks @A_Lurker. Our company does already have a Fitbit group set up so this may work for us if we can find another company where their employees have Fitbits and would be interested in a challenge. I think it would be easy to do this way. Thanks for the suggestion!

No problems, good luck finding a company to compete against!

It is an interesting idea for company vs company challenge.   Let give itt a try.  Our company is small.

We could do virtual walk challenge between companies.
