The destination of today's episode is Westborough, Massachusetts where we are talking to Ryan Mannion from Coghlin Companies. Ryan and Willie met in Boston recently and immediately hit it off, so it only makes sense that he would make an appearance on the podcast! Ryan holds a degree in business management and now works at Coghlin, a fourth-generation family company that does $400 million in annual revenue! On top of that they are servicing some of the coolest technology that America has produced and if you don't believe us, just wait till you hear what Ryan has to say! In this conversation, we cover the sexy side of manufacturing, the one that is often forgotten and gets left out of the conversation. We also get into the role of America as a leader in the hardware technology space and the centrality of the people involved in manufacturing and how they make all the difference! Ryan also shares what is special to him about building equipment and what excites him most about his current position in the industry. Coghlin Companies relies almost solely on refer-ability and Ryan explains their decision to not pursue trade shows and similar events.
