How Do You Hire for Success?
One of the most important decisions you can make in business is to hire the right individuals. The company you work for is nothing without the individuals who do the work and create the product and/or services you sell. The employees are the heart of the company and the soul that keeps it alive. So it is vitally important that you make the right decisions when hiring new ones. Don’t be fooled by someone who sounds impressive, but has a resume that can’t back it up. You want to hire someone whose experience matches your needs. But beware, the truly important factor in hiring is ‘attitude’. You can train a smart person to do almost everything. But you can’t train attitude.
A ‘can do’ attitude can overcome a lot of missing experience. Look to hire individuals who are excited about the possibility of going to work for your company. They will bring a breath of fresh air into the workplace. Keep in mind that if they are ambivalent in the interview, they won’t suddenly get all excited about your company on the first day. So if you find an individual that is somewhat lacking in experience, but has a really positive attitude, you can train them on what they don’t know, and you will have a great employee who will really appreciate your confidence in giving them the chance.

How Do Your Customers Love You?
Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s famous sonnet begins “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.” With Valentine’s Day upon us, it comes as a good time to ask how do your customers love you? Do they rave about your products, service, attentiveness? Can you give examples of how they have communicated their love of your company?
Well here are ‘the ways’, let’s count them: 1. If you are doing your job right, your customers should be writing to you about what they like and how happy they are with your company and/or products and services. 2. They should be willing to be used as a reference for your company. 3. They should be giving you names of other companies that could benefit from your products and/or services. And, finally, 5. They should be talking about your company in a positive manner to everyone and anyone who will listen. These are ‘the ways’ that your customers can tell you how they love you.
If you aren’t ‘feeling the love’ from your customers it is time to up your game and turn your customers into your best sales team. If you can’t count at least the above five ways that your customers show you how much they love you, you need to re-commit to your customer satisfaction relationship.

Advantage - NEM
It was recently brought to our attention that with all of our products and innovation, our greatest competitive advantage is the versatility of our machines. Dating back to the origins of NEM, our ‘better method’ has always included the ability to handle a wide variety of container shapes and sizes. Our customers can’t always invest in separate machines to run numerous production lines. They need machines that can easily and quickly change over to different products and different containers and/or caps. We are often told that other machines have a limited range of the sizes, shapes and styles of containers they can handle.
The versatility of NEM machines is unsurpassed. Frequently, when faced with an unusual range of containers, or new shapes and sizes, we have a standard model that will work. Other times, we can make some minor design changes that makes it happen for the customer. This underscores another of NEM’s competitive advantages and our core competency, our full Engineering Dept.
NEM was founded by packaging engineers and continues to invest heavily in R&D to be a true leader in the packaging machinery industry. Our team reviews our customers’ needs and determines exactly what will be the right machine for their specific application. We don’t try to sell a ‘one machine fits all applications’ solution. Because, quite frankly, it doesn’t work and it’s not what’s best for the customer. And don’t let anyone tell you that our machines are too complicated because of their versatility. The beauty of our versatility is what keeps our customers coming back again and again for more machines. It’s not complicated, it’s easy and flexible and we would be more than happy to show you how easy it is to be versatile. We can’t promise to ‘do it all’, but we can promise to do more than our competition. Which is why so many companies have standardized on NEM machinery.
