Aluminum Laptop Case Manufacturer, MEZZI, Making Improvements to Website and Products Based on Customer Feedback


Vancouver, BC, Canada (Vocus/PRWEB) March 21, 2011

MEZZI, a renowned briefcase manufacturer, announced today it will be making many positive changes to both its products and website thanks to the candid feedback received through a large-scale customer survey, recently sent out through the companys newsletter. MEZZI also committed to personally responding to anyone who expressed dissatisfaction with their product or customer service in order to learn more about and address the customers experience.

Most of our survey takers were quite satisfied with their MEZZI shopping experience and the products they purchased, says MEZZI President, David Mezzi, but for those who took the time to let us know how we could improve our business we also took the time to personally respond and address their concerns.

MEZZI received hundreds of survey responses, which was aimed at getting to know their customers better. Questions on the survey included, How did you find out about MEZZI?, Were you satisfied with your experience at MEZZI.com? and Is there anything you think we should be doing differently? Taking note of how their customers found them, most people were finding MEZZI through search engines and other websites, showing that MEZZI has a strong online presence, both through its website and social media presence.

Most of the customer responses did not include suggestions for improvement, which MEZZI sees as an indication of customer satisfaction, but there was a notable trend in the feedback concerning a lack of consistency in answering customers phone and email messages.

MEZZI took these responses seriously, continues David Mezzi, and now we will be installing a support ticket system on our website to ensure and verify that customers inquires have been received and which will allow us to respond in a more timely manner. It is one of the most important things we can do as a company which is to take care of our customers needs. Too often companies treat their customers as just another sale and they do not provide a level of personal service. Thats not the road we want to take at MEZZI, so we are making the changes to eliminate that direction.

Based on the survey responses they received, MEZZI will also be rolling out a few new product improvements where customers noted a need.

Wellness Equipment Manufacturer Awarded Grant From MidAtlantic Trade Adjustment Assistance Center (MATAAC)


New Freedom, PA (PRWEB) April 27, 2012

Jeff Riach, CEO of Oakworks, announced today that they had been approved to apply for trade assistance associated with sales lost to Chinese manufacturers in the massage table market.

Since 2000, the number of cheap imported Chinese massage tables has exploded and this has resulted in economic losses to Oakworks of significant magnitude. We are the only company left in the US making portable massage tables. Oakworks is committed to manufacturing in the US and retaining our employees. Over the last 10 years the market price of massage tables has dropped significantly as much less expensive imported tables have flooded the market. Our professional quality, massage tables are worth every penny to a busy professional, but when massage table prices at Costco and Walmart are half or less, it is hard to compete. We heard about this program and submitted proof that we had been harmed by these low cost imports and are heartened to get this news, said Jeff Riach, CEO.

The Economic Development Administration (EDA), part of the Department of Commerce, is responsible for helping US manufacturing companies with matching grants up to $ 75,000 designated for projects that will boost the global competitiveness of the company. Oakworks must submit an EDA approved adjustment proposal with the next 2 years to receive the grant. Jeff Riach went on to say We have worked very hard over the last decade to improve our competitiveness of our professional quality massage products against the lower quality imported products that have flooded our market. We believe that the steps this grant will make possible can help us bridge the gap.

About MidAtlantic Trade Adjustment Assistance Center:

The MidAtlantic Trade Adjustment Assistance Center (MATAAC) has been chartered by the Economic Development Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce with responsibility for the disbursement and management of Trade Adjustment Assistance federal grant funds.

The Consumer Justice Foundation Alerts Public to Asset International Report on Pension Funds Chiding Manufacturer of Depakote for Executive Pay Metrics

(PRWEB) April 16, 2012

The Consumer Justice Foundation, a for-profit corporation whose team of professional consumer advocates provides free online informational resources to consumers with regards to the potential dangers associated with certain prescription medications, hereby alert the public of a recent news report that was published by Asset International on April 4, 2012. This report stated that the New York Comptroller and five other public pension funds have submitted a shareholder resolution to Abbott Laboratories with regards to their system of executive pay.

Abbott Laboratories is the manufacturer of the drug Depakote, which is an anticonvulsant medication used to treat the symptoms of migraine headaches, epilepsy and the manic episodes associated with bipolar disorder. The report states that this shareholder resolution was submitted by the New York Comptroller as well as the pension funds including the New York City Employees Retirement System, Teachers Retirement System, New York City Police Pension Fund, New York City Fire Department Pension Fund, and the Board of Education Retirement System.

This resolution calls for Abbott Laboratories to change their executive pay system that allegedly insulates the companys executive bonuses from financial liabilities. These liabilities include a $ 1.5 billion charge-off disclosed in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission related to ongoing settlement discussions in the previously disclosed investigation by the U.S. Department of Justicerelated to Depakote. This possible Depakote settlement, according to the report, was made in hopes of avoiding a civil lawsuit that would be filed because of alleged off-label uses of Depakote. No legal citation yet exists for such a matter, as investigation filing codes are not released to the public and the Department of Justice does not comment on ongoing matters. Abbott Laboratories disclosed this issue through its SEC filing. News of this hoped-for settlement was originally released in October of 2011.

New York City Comptroller John Liu stated in the report that, Rewarding top executives with lucrative bonuses when the company pays massive fines for allegedly breaking the law, cheating Medicaid, or potentially putting patients with dementia and autism at risk is just indefensible. The decision regarding this shareholder resolution will be made at Abbott Laboratories annual general meeting to be held later in April.

About the Consumer Justice Foundation

The Consumer Justice Foundation, whose Web site is located at http://www.consumerjusticefoundation.com, is a public resource that’s been built and maintained by a group of concerned professionals who want to provide general information for consumers regarding the potential dangers involved with the use of Depakote while pregnant. This resource is not to be considered as medical or legal advice, which should only be dispensed by a licensed medical doctor or a Depakote lawyer.

Oslo (PRWEB) April 30, 2012

Despite deep experience and heavy investment in their manufacturing and quality control processes, Nidar were unable to identify the cause of the problem which resulted in significant waste, downtime, energy usage and re-work costs.

Because chocolate manufacturing is a complex process with many variables, Nidar required more powerful analytical tools than traditional Statistical Process Control (SPC) to understand the relationships between product variables.

Design Coup Puts Brand Story into Action for Global Agricultural Manufacturer


Atlanta (Vocus) June 17, 2010

Design Coup, a strategic branding and creative agency, was chosen by AGCO Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of agricultural equipment, to lead its worldwide marketing teams in Brand Story Workshops from January to June, 2010.

The purpose of the events, hosted in Suolahti, Finland; Beauvais, France; Marktoberdorf, Germany; and Duluth GA, was to build brand platforms across multiple brands and countries with a common, consistent structure.

AGCOs four global brands Challenger, Fendt, Valtra and Massey Ferguson are among the most trusted and respected tractor brands in the world. Each brand has enjoyed its own long history and legacy, 160 years in the case of Massey Ferguson. The Brand Story workshops were designed to introduce a new level of synergy to how the brands work together.

We took each brand team through an identical Brand Story process, said Michael Higgins, a principal of Design Coup and leader of the sessions. Each brand produces powerful and reliable machinery with advanced technology and features. Our goal was to identify the distinctive DNA at the core of each brand and build the brand platform around a key brand concept.

Design Coup used its Brand Story approach to help participants experience the creative genesis of a brand. Brands and Stories are very similar, explained Design Coups Bruce Miller, who helped develop the course content. We connect with our favorite brands in the same way we identify with a character in a story. Brands and stories both create emotional experiences where we project something of ourselves onto the brand or character.

When you include AGCO, were actually managing five brands, explains Sue Otten, AGCOs Director of Corporate Marketing & Brand Communications Worldwide. As our brands expand from their regional roots and continue to grow worldwide, it becomes increasingly important that our brand platform can be readily implemented by anyone in the world. These workshops gave each of our brand managers a structured approach from which to develop local messaging thats in accord with our global brand strategy.

At the conclusion of the workshops, each team worked collaboratively to conform its brand platform to the new structure and refine its core components. The platforms will become the basis for implementing AGCOs brand vision moving forward.

About Design Coup Design Coup, a strategic branding and creative agency, creates marketing/design communications for leading organizations, including manufacturers, healthcare companies, franchise systems, and other business ventures. Located in Atlanta, GA (Decatur), Design Coup has been in business since 1998. For more information about Design Coup, visit DesignCoup.com

Briefcase Manufacturer Launches Inventive ‘Show Us Your MEZZI’ Contest

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) October 15, 2010

MEZZI, world-renowned briefcase manufacturer, announced today the launch of their “Show Us Your MEZZI” contest, where participants can showcase their creative uses of a MEZZI case to win prizes. The contest is the first of its kind for MEZZI, a company that has already enjoyed many high-profile spotlights in the movies and on television. MEZZI cases have appeared in “Mission: Impossible III,” on NBC’s hit game show, “Deal or No Deal” and the network’s television show, “Chuck.”

“The briefcase, historically, has always had a fairly static association with the businessperson,” says David Mezzi, President of MEZZI. “Not much new has been highlighted with this simple yet useful product. However, with the appearances of our cases in movies and on TV, the case is once again a versatile product that reflects the creativity of those who use them, and we want to see them in action.”

The “Show Us Your MEZZI” contest asks MEZZI case owners to submit photos of their cases in a unique way. Participants can either submit their photos directly to marketing(at)mezzi(dot)com or upload them on the MEZZI Facebook page. Uses of the case must be original, so no TV or movie screenshots will count. Photos can be submitted until November 30, 2010, and all photos will be judged based on originality, creativity and style.

“Over the years we’ve seen some very neat uses of our cases,” says Mezzi, “including a firefighter who mounted our MEZZI art portfolio case on a fire truck to store various keys, and we’ve heard of people using the same case to transport model train sets. It seems the possible uses for a simple case are endless, and stories like these motivated us to do this contest. We are excited to see what other creative uses people have for our products.”

The grand prize winner of the “Show Us Your MEZZI” contest will receive a $ 200 credit for MEZZI.com and three runner-up winners will receive a free MEZZI accessory of their choice.

To spice up the contest, MEZZI will also draw one random “early bird” winner on November 1st and give that person a free MEZZI case. Another random winner will be drawn December 1st for the same prize. MEZZI reserves the right to use all submitted photos, including posting them on Facebook and on MEZZI.com.

In addition to selling a wide variety of versatile briefcases, MEZZI also offers laptop cases, gun cases, art portfolio cases, travel cases, makeup cases, business card cases, CD storage cases, memory card cases and tool cases.
