Keeping up with the manufacturing industry — At Your Doorstep

In this episode of At Your Doorstep, host Kaylee Nix looks into what manufacturers need to be doing to keep up with consumer demands.

Nix brings on Dusty Dean, a Modern Shipper contributor and CEO of BITCADET, who explains how the adoption of technology is a crucial first step for any manufacturer. He says there is a distinct dichotomy between the companies that are looking forward and those that are still stuck in the old ways, whether that be with back-office tech or customer-facing operations. 

Dean breaks down what today’s consumer expects when buying directly from the source instead of through a third-party marketplace and how manufacturers can make more money by understanding that direct-from-source purchasing mindset.
