Video Testimonial: MRIaudio Doubles Their Annual Sales Revenue Working with CMTC
One of MRIaudio’s biggest clients required that the company become ISO certified. To help MRIaudio maintain that customer relationship as well as create new business opportunities, CMTC provided training and consulting services to prepare MRIaudio for their certification. Shortly after MRIaudio achieved their ISO certification, CMTC delivered Lean Six Sigma training to help MRIaudio increase performance; reduce defects; and improve profits, employee morale, and product quality. Since then, CMTC has continued to work with MRIaudio to assist the company with various training and certification opportunities, helping to upskill and empower MRIaudio employees. MRIaudio’s partnership with CMTC has led to significant business growth, with their yearly sales revenue almost doubling to four million dollars in 2023. Check out the full video here!
