Are you passing up on the service contract because you don't have technicians? Are you struggling to find technicians who are not asking for the world? This conversation with a client led to new opportunities.   Compressed Air Distributor President: “Matthew, I like that you find technicians with experience, but my problem with them is that they can damage goods. Me: How so? President: Technicians from larger companies, in my experience, have picked up bad habits.” Me: “What are you looking for?” President: “Find me an industrial mechanic who has worked on compressors, pumps, and gearboxes. Fresh clay.” Me: I then shared stories of the best mechanics that I know. Industrial mechanics who plant managers and supervisors count on. President: “Yes. I can turn people like that into the best field service engineers in the market.” Me: This opens a sea of opportunities for technicians who will be thankful for someone giving them the chance to step away from shift work. President; “Go find them.” The answer is right under your nose. Technicians and shift mechanics facilities that you service and maintain. These Industrial mechanics know how to think creatively on the off-shift. These are mechanics that take pride in saving the day. Offer them the opportunity. And you will have a loyal employee who is grateful to be given the career break they have been dreaming of.

Many skilled craft people are looking for work. Even though there’s not enough labor to go around, I’m seeing a trend for those that possess a specific skill set looking to work with organizations who value their years of experience. It’s apparent that these individuals don’t want to go to a shop environment or even a jobsite where they are performing the same monotonous task over-and-over-and- over again. It looks like these highly skilled workers are looking for companies that value their years of experience while providing them with diversified, and interesting tasks that can be as varied as hours in the day. I had a conversation with an organization this week who’s new hires fit a unique profile. They need more workers like you with the flexibility to work a variety of jobs and perform work that makes a difference. I can put you in touch with some good people if you are a: - Welder - Pipe Fitter - Mill Wright/ Mechanic - Client Focused Mechanical Engineer Let me know if I can help you or someone in your network. Asking for a friend.
