The initial concept of River of Nickels was coined by our good buddy Jim Yount. While you may step over a nickel because you felt it wasn’t worth your time, what if picking up a nickel led to many nickels which then led to dimes, quarters and ultimately dollars? Then, you would be much more interested in that first nickel.
Today, I have the honor of chatting with someone who has spent their career picking up those nickels and turning them into dollars. As he would describe it, these are the costs within a business that seem very nebulous but end up being major cost savings if looked at more critically.
My guest, Matt Nagy is a Business Optimization Specialist at Schooley Mitchell where he looks at everyday company costs such as software fees, disposal costs, telecom to save companies millions of dollars.
