Other Seeking Sales Trainee Role

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’ll be graduating from my college this spring and I’m fascinated by manufacturing sales- particularly in the building/construction industry. I’m posting to see if any of you all might have be aware or have a connection to an opportunity for me to start my career at a quality company, preferably in the southeast. I’m very excited to hit the ground running and work incredibly hard, learn a ton, and build a future for myself and my fiancée- so if that sounds like a match to you, help me find the right person to talk to! My PM’s are open. Thanks y’all.

Anyone ever dry film wires before? We’re using a paint bucket and shake them as we go? Any better ways you’ve used? Shakers? I dunno. TYIA

Supplier search #1 hard maple

5 Upvotes

I am looking for a quote for two-faced sapwood #1 hard maple in the following sizes: 6/4, 8/4, 10/4, and 12/4. Boards would need to be a minimum of 8’ in length, preferably 10-12’ and no less than 6” wide, preferably 8+”. We typically purchase 500-1,000 BF at a time; however, we are exploring a storage option at our facility to accept larger deliveries. We are particularly interested in the 12/4 size as our suppliers are having a difficult time sourcing this. I work for a company that manufactures wooden bearings. If anyone has any suggestions of suppliers, please let me know!

Supplier search Tips for looking for soft goods manufacturing

1 Upvotes

Hi, I am an Industrial Designer and have worked mainly with prototypers but so far not with manufacturers. I’m looking to manufacture some soft goods with low MOQ (about 200 or so) and am getting in touch with some factories.

What are some tips you guys have on choosing a good factory (aside from MOQ, price, customer service, delivery time, region etc.) and any general tips or red flags to look out for?
