What happens when we completely rethink how manufacturing and logistics get staffed? Patrick Dippel joins us to share how Veryable is shaking up the game with on-demand labor solutions built for today’s workforce and tomorrow’s challenges.
We all know the old way of doing things in manufacturing doesn’t always work anymore. The younger workforce demands flexibility, businesses need to stay competitive, and let’s face it—getting the right people for the job can feel impossible. That’s where Patrick and Veryable come in. This isn’t your average staffing solution; think of it as the “Uber of manufacturing.”
Patrick breaks down how Veryable connects skilled workers with businesses that need them, using an innovative marketplace model. Whether you’re a welder, a machinist, or just starting out in logistics, Veryable gives you the freedom to choose jobs that fit your schedule and skills. For businesses, it’s a way to handle demand swings, reduce costs, and stay competitive without overcommitting to full-time hires.
We dig into how this model is especially appealing to Gen Z and millennials, who value flexibility and getting paid fast. Patrick shares real stories—like a Texas welder who balances his work with running a YouTube channel—and explains how this approach is reshaping what it means to build a career in manufacturing.
If you’ve been stuck thinking, “We just can’t find good people,” Patrick challenges you to rethink that. The talent is out there—you just need the right tools to connect with it.
