Manufacturing & Distribution

Seminars, Webinars, And Surveys! RubinBrown Connects with Manufacturers and Distributors

At RubinBrown, we connect and learn with our clients through a variety of media—seminars, webinars, and surveys! The following are a few ways we’ve come together recently with our clients and contacts in the manufacturing and distribution industries. Lean Accounting Seminar Last November, RubinBrown hosted nearly 100 of our manufacturing and distribution clients and contacts. The seminar featured guest speaker, David Silverstein, CEO of BMGI. Founded as a Lean Six Sigma consultant, BMGI has grown into a firm that helps its clients solve critical problems from strategy formulation to product and process innovation.

David opened the seminar with a discussion on the staggering pace of change in today’s business environment. Innovative companies like MySpace, which was considered the most popular social networking site in the United States in 2006, was replaced by Facebook in only two short years. His main message—focusing on what the customer needs, as opposed to improving your existing product, can be the difference between success and failure. Watch the Lean Accounting Seminar Online!
