¿Cuál es el plan para 2020?

Desde que comenzamos a brindar felicidad a nuestros clientes, uno de nuestros valores centrales siempre ha sido “centrarnos en el sistema, no en el puntaje”.

Esta es parte de la razón por la cual, como mencioné en nuestro mensaje de Navidad, nuestros equipos de hoy son los más fuertes que jamás hayan sido. Y continúan mejorando cada día más.

El plan para 2020, por lo tanto, es continuar mejorando nuestros sistemas. Si hacemos eso, el puntaje se encargará solo.

Entonces, si bien daré una proyección, cómo llegamos allí es realmente más importante.

Si no alcanzamos las proyecciones, pero descubrimos formas de trabajar de manera más eficiente, disminuimos los errores, reducimos el desperdicio y nuestros clientes están más contentos, entonces ESO ES UNA GANANCIA.

Si alcanzamos nuestras proyecciones, pero llegar allí significó muchos dolores de cabeza, estrés, tiempo extra y equipos grandes, entonces debemos evaluar si valió la pena.

El plan para 2020 es mejorar nuestros sistemas, eliminar el desperdicio, automatizar y hacer más en menos tiempo y con menos dolores de cabeza.

Me encantaría duplicar su tamaño para fines de 2020, pero lo que es más importante, me gustaría que cada uno de ustedes crezca profesionalmente y que los sistemas y procesos de nuestra empresa se fortalezcan como resultado.

-Ben

2019 in Pictures

Just like that, it’s 2020 already. Can you believe it?!

To make sure we have things to remind us of 2019, here are some photos taken last year.

We’re so lucky to have captured these moments.

And even though our marvelous team members are scattered all over the planet, we are still able to get together, have some face-time, and celebrate precious holidays.

So here they are, starting with the Austin Team.

Fourth of July Celebration

The Austin Team says hello to the rest of Nadine West members during its 4th of July celebration.

Ben’s visit to the Philippines

It’s really awesome that Ben goes the extra mile to get to know as many of our members. Last September, he had a nice chat with some of them in Olongapo, Philippines.

Halloween Party

Take a look at these lovely photos during the warehouse team Halloween Party. Aww…wish we could join you guys!

Christmas Celebrations

And of course, we are able to celebrate the holiday season together.

Here are some photos of the Russia team during Ben’s visit last December.

Some of the Philippine team members in Bacolod also met for the first time during the holidays.

Our warehouse team sure had some fun at the Christmas party.

Now, as 2020 starts, let’s keep on spending wonderful moments together.

And make sure to take lots of photos!

Some of us might not be able to meet everyone in person but it’s good to see each and everyone even in pictures. <3 <3 <3

Why does Nadine West exist?

When Sidney and I started Nadine West, it was always our goal to build something really special. We wanted to build the kind of company that customers would love, employees would love working for, and shareholders would be proud of.

When we started, our vision was not to build a great product, or to build a great service, but to build a great company. So we took a much different path than our competitors. 

While our competitors went out and raised as much money as possible, we raised only what we needed. While the other guys went out and focused on speed and growing as fast as possible, we focused on longevity and building something that would last.

And to make something last, we need to anchor our craft on a strong sense of purpose–something that will keep us moving even when the going gets tough.

So what is this driving force? What is the reason for our existence?

Well, you *might* think that we exist to send our customers personalized outfits at affordable prices. That’s true, but it’s not what we *really* do. 

Truth is, we deliver HAPPINESS to the everyday woman.

Our customers are busy women — trying to juggle work and kids, while also trying to find time for themselves to relax, watch their show on Netflix, and maybe meet up with friends and family a couple times a month. There just aren’t enough hours in the week.

Our job is to make sure they SMILE when they open their package and see what Pink Santa picked out for them this month. Our job is to make them smile with funny emails, FB posts, and text messages.

So every time a happy customer shares how wonderful she feels because of the outfit we curated for her, or the greeting card we sent, or the delightful customer support she has connected with, we know we are doing our job right and the work we’re putting in is worth it.

Hang In There, Houston

Huge thank you to the best warehouse team in all of Austin for putting together these “Welcome Kits” on Friday.

Austin Mayor Steve Adler asked Austin residents to create these welcome kits for our friends from Houston staying in Austin shelters until they are ready to return to Houston and begin recovery.

Hang in there, Houston!

We love you, Houston! Hang in there.

All loaded up and ready to drop off.

A couple dozen welcome kits for our friends from Houston.

Some words of encouragement from Nadine West.

The warehouse team (and mascot) wishing Houston the best.

Wrapped with love from Austin, TX.

Thank You Wonderful Styling Team

Wonderful Styling Team,

Hopefully you got a note and a gift card in the mail by now.  Sidney and I want to let you know how much we appreciate your efforts.  While our development team and operations teams are in constant transition, as we improve, experiment, and adjust, we have always been able to rely on you ladies to consistently assemble outfits that our customers love.  Thank you so much!

–Ben and Sidney

Happy Thanksgiving 2016

Today is Thanksgiving here in the U.S.  The warehouse team gathered together for a very nice, home-cooked feast and shared what we were grateful for.

I told everyone how thankful I was for Michelle’s leadership. She has done an amazing job of choosing great people, creating a friendly workplace, and making sure that everything in the warehouse runs smoothly.

Michelle told everyone that she was thankful to be surrounded by such a great team.  The team was thankful for each other and for Michelle.  Dan was thankful for baby Jesus and Mountain Dew.  Lol.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!  We are very fortunate to have you!

–Everyone at Nadine West
