Most manufacturers don't realize just how much inefficiency is baked into their daily operations—until they start pulling back the layers. That was the case for Johnny Goode, President of MSP Manufacturing, who stepped into the family business in 2020 and immediately saw opportunities for change.

Paper-based processes, siloed systems, and hidden inefficiencies were costing the shop time, money, and agility. But change wasn't easy—especially for a team that had been doing things the same way for years.

Johnny shares how MSP systematically broke free from outdated habits, transitioning to a fully digital, ProShop-driven workflow. The results? A purchasing process that went from two full-time employees to a four-hour-a-week task, on-time delivery skyrocketing to 97-99%, and a 50% growth in revenue with only a 2% increase in overhead.

He also talks through the challenges of change management, the unexpected benefits of radical transparency, and how the right ERP doesn't just organize a shop—it transforms its culture.

For shop owners wondering if digital transformation is worth the effort, Johnny's story makes it clear: the cost of staying the same is far greater.
