Oral Communication and the Need for Written Documentation

For anyone who has ever played the telephone game, you know that the message passed from one person to another changes greatly over a short distance. This happened in our office recently when someone in the factory was paged.

A team member who had not heard the message asked,

“Who was just paged?”

“Mike,” came the reply.

Then another person asked, “what did he ask?”

“Oh, he just wanted to know who paged Mike.” Continue reading

Kleer-Fax Web App: Are we Going Paperless?

We make paper products and that’s not going to change anytime soon, but just as we are embracing today’s technology with our recent explosion of Twitter posts (2 this month!) we have also come out with an app that will help people compare competing products to ours.

When it comes to giving back, many people consider the jobs created by businesses – small and large – to be enough. Those who have started a company know the incredible feat it is to keep one going, but many business leaders are going beyond this by giving even more.

This includes sponsoring a local little league team or allowing a Girl Scout Troop to set up for a day outside of one’s store.

Why Buy American-made Goods?

We may be a little biased on this subject; after all, we compete with many companies who manufacture their goods outside of the US. However, it’s not because we have to. Kleer-Fax has had offers to move production to Mexico with the enticement that skilled labor will cost much less, increasing our bottom line.

A Paperless World?

The world is changing. Company newsletters are now blogs, documents are scanned and saved digitally, and many of us are paying our bills online. However, in spite of the many articles about how the world will go paperless, the truth is that there will always be a need and want in the marketplace.

Needs in the marketplace will include the necessity of paper back-ups for important manuals. It’s great that a tablet can condense thousands of pages into one place, but the drawbacks are that it only takes a fall from a few feet, or a little bit of water, to destroy the device. While it’s best to keep coffee stains off of your hardcopies, a few spills won’t ruin their functionality.      Continue reading
