Enjoy!
days of a Minnesota winter, working alone gets lonely and my ideas
feel thin and uninspired.
That's why I attend literary conferences and classes each winter.
The creative spark that happens when I'm talking with like-minded
people who offer different approaches to similar challenges is so
valuable, that no matter how busy, introverted or poor I'm feeling,
I build these gatherings into my schedule.
I hope you do the same. Are you attending the Marine Fabricators
Conference in New Orleans, La., Jan. 26-28? This is an excellent
opportunity to connect with other fabricators, meet new suppliers,
learn new business practices and hone your fabrication skills.
This issue is about strengthening both your business and your
connections to others. The " Heavy Metal " feature explores different
ways to deal with metal fabrication, including collaborations with
other shops. " Mobile Shops " discusses whether it makes sense to
add a mobile unit to your annual business plan. The 2023 Time
Standards Manual, developed with the expertise of the Marine
Fabricators Association, will help inform your labor estimates for an
effi cient and profi table upcoming year.
Faith Roberts, IFM, MFC, Banner Canvas, discusses how to
approach tricky client design challenges. Russ Griffi n, Northcoast
Marine Specialties LLC, discusses the ins and outs of horizontal
and cantilever frame systems, and
Krisha Plauché, Onboard Interiors
LLC, discusses new ways to market
your business to connect with potential
clients post-COVID.
One of the most surprising things
about connecting with others is
realizing that feeling inspired and
inspiring others often go hand in hand.
As Michelle Tillis Lederman, the
author of The Connector's Advantage,
says, " Don't underestimate your ability
to bring value to someone else. "
