Knepper Press: Extreme Makeover

"What really helped us out was being able to compartmentalize it," Hreha remarks. "I focused on the production portion. Bill kept the building process flowing. And Ted continued our push on the sales front. So, not having one person control all three aspects made it all a little bit easier for us."

The benefits have been many. Aside from the obvious gains in manufacturing space (which nearly tripled) and a more orderly, efficient and streamlined workflow, Knepper Press enjoyed a psychological bounce that permeated all aspects of its operations.
