What Every Plant Manager Knows: The Key to a Successful Purchase Lies in Manufacturer Credibility
A strong customer-manufacturer relationship is founded on mutual respect and excellent communication. As a plant manager, you want to be sure that the manufacturer of your next labeling system will be knowledgeable, dependable and there for you throughout the life of the system. CTM believes that the best way to ensure manufacturer credibility is to visit the manufacturer in person.
A comprehensive manufacturer’s tour should reveal the design and manufacturing capabilities, the sales and distribution services and the knowledge of the staff as a whole. When you leave the facility, you should have a strong impression that this is the manufacturer that will be with you long after you have purchased a labeling system.
During a CTM tour, you are given a clear picture of all of our capabilities. Every facet of our shop is open to you, from metal-cutting to pre-assembly and system checkout.
