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.

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.HighlightsPatrick explains how Veryable's on-demand labor model works for manufacturing and logistics.Why 85% of Veryable's operators are Gen Z and millennials—and what they're looking for in a job.Real-world examples of how businesses are using Veryable to handle demand without overstaffing.Insights on why traditional labor models no longer cut it in today's market.The shift in manufacturing culture: from rigid schedules to flexibility and innovation.If you liked what you heard, hit subscribe, rate us, and leave a review.

This lets them increase costs only as their output increases, which will empower businesses to scale while maintaining a lower and more constant cost structure. We aim to achieve this through our technology, which enables us to transform an antiquated and inefficient labor market into a real-time marketplace for labor. This will put more people to work and relieve the burden on producers, improving overall productivity and enabling organic growth.

Stay turned to the end of the interview where I'll give you some actionable insights that I learned from my guest. These insights are also in the show notes. As always, thanks for listening. Now on to my guest today, Noah Labhart, cofounder of Veryable and host of the podcast Code Story.  Noah graduated from Texas A&M with degrees in math and computer science. He worked for years at Alcon Labs in Fort Worth while also playing in a rock band. After earning an MBA, he started to “get the itch” to build his own company, but didn't have a specific idea about what to do. It was his cofounder, Michael Kinder who brought the idea that would eventually become Veryable.  Veryable is a unique platform that offers on-demand labor solutions for manufacturing companies and warehouses. Companies can contract workers as they need them, and workers can find work that is more flexible than traditional manufacturing jobs. Noah sees the platform as part of a larger vision where manufacturing has seen the downside of outsourcing and is also working with software that is more integrated and universal. He can see it eventually becoming linked to other new developments like on-demand warehouses for e-commerce businesses.  In his podcast Code Story, Noah interviews tech innovators to bring to light the stories behind their ideas and how they came to fruition.  Now let's get better together. Actionable Insights Noah's advice for anyone aspiring to start their own business? “Just do it.” His only regret is that he didn't start building his own business sooner.  Even if you fail or things don't work out as you expect, the experience of learning and doing better next time can be very satisfying.  Don't dismiss the traditional blue-collar work ethic of putting the hours in and doing the hard work, no matter what kind of work you're doing. The discipline of hard work matters.

On Demand Labour with Noah Labhart Today we're talking to Noah Labhart from Texas all about on demand labour. He's all about code and must be in huge demand at the moment whilst everyone is online! What does he think the new normal will be? Noah thinks technology will be made more of, and embedded within the heart of the new normal. The internet might even become a utility rather than a luxury/extra service. Coding first - an on demand labour Noah graduated form Texas University with a degree in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics. He knew he didn't want to be a mathematician but wanted to work in computer software. He then did some consultancy for a year and worked for Alcom Laboratories for 8 years. During that time, he got the entrepreneurial itch. He saw it didn't matter how hard he worked in the corporate space - the needle would only move a little. Alcom were a great company to work for but he didn't want that to be where he stayed. As a result, he started an agency called Touchtap. He developed mobile applications which turned into digital solutions and platforms for start-ups. Soon after, he was introduced to his now business partner Mike Kinder, who had the idea for Veryable. This is an on demand market place for manufacturing labour. This idea was pitched to Noah in 2016. He couldn't shoot holes in it! Now, they have nearly 100, 000 workers in the platform. Growth, growth, growth. Hard-working labourers http://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Lockdown-shift.mp4 We could have really done with Noah in 1979! That would have been an amazing way to deal with the on-demand labour market! Now, he must be a market of his own surely? Is Noah a virtual monopoly of this space? There are a few people out there who are tech-enabled staffing and so Veryable is lumped in with staffing agencies a lot. They readily reject that. They are an operations tool for labour, only supporting manufacturing supply chain and the industrial environment distributions. Therefore, Veryable as a tool is tailored to their needs. That sets them apart and are, therefore, on their own. Typically, Noah's business recommends people to use discrete work opportunities (a week/a day/etc). They don't want staff augmentation because that sits them in the staffing industry. Your Labour Pool Veryable created something called Your Labour Pool. It's essentially a set of favourites - people you've worked with before, know the drill and can be hired and trusted to hit the ground floor and start working. Manufacturers get a little hesitant because it's not efficient to get lots of people in for labour and have to train them every time. So, this group of favourites gives businesses their own private on-demand labour pool. They can post just to that labour pool. http://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Pool-of-labour.mp4 The opportunity for Noah's business is to chunk down on manufacturing. America has gifted a lot of its own jobs to other countries elsewhere through trade deals. However, manufacturing is bound to grow in America. Therefore, by being the expert as Noah and his business is, the market will grow him. A matter of attraction How does Noah attract the staff to his business, and how does he attract other businesses? Well, there are two different selling process Veryable uses. To get people aware of the platform, they use a tool called ZipRecruiter and post opportunities or awareness posts for people to sign up to the platform. There are a few requirement steps to sign up, and do a background check before they can bid on work. That process has been great. On the business side, it's a bit different. They're introducing a third paradigm (you've got part time, staff augmentation, etc) which is on demand labour for your spikes and weekly rises and falls. Noah has to do a lot of relationship building and education with this, showing businesses how they are the experts in this field.
