MoldMaking Technology has always focused strongly on technology and process, but over the past few years we’ve covered a lot of important business management topics as well.  This coverage has included everything from sales & marketing to workforce development to taxes. I recently caught up with a group that focuses most of its sales and marketing energy on manufacturing, specifically mold manufacturing. So, we decided to work together on a limited blog series called “People + People Plan.

Red Caffeine is a growth consultancy in Lombard, Illinois, that uses strategy + branding + marketing + technology to solve common business challenges of brand awareness, lead generation, sales enablement, employer branding, and digital transformation. Through its own People+People Plan, they have helped build organizations customers want to use and employees want to join

Like most companies, they've also experienced these common business challenges in its own growth journey. Their goal is to share the insights and strategies they have learned with like-minded organizations committed to building strategic growth and a healthy culture.
