Human Element Great Lakes - JULABO USA

Human Element

People often forget about the relationship they’ll have with a company once they make a purchase. They evaluate how the product works and what it can do for them, but, in the end, it’s the human element that matters more than any other feature or benefit.

At JULABO, it’s our people that make the difference. Here are some of their stories.

Michelle Sammarco’s Can-Do Attitude

Helps customers succeed

In business, as in life, attitude is everything, Michelle Sammarco, territory account manager for JULABO USA, understands that her most powerful tool is a positive, can-do attitude. She helps customers embrace progress and possibility by helping them find the solutions and equipment they need to achieve their most ambitious goals. Her attitude aligns with her actions. She’s not one who easily gives up, and her enthusiasm and willingness to take on new tasks and challenges pays off for those who turn to her for temperature control solutions. Like the innovators, scientists, and researchers that she works with, she’s not afraid to try new things, learn-as-she goes, and experiment with possibilities. Since joining JULABO USA in February 2019, Michelle has demonstrated that a can-do attitude goes a long way when you’re trying to do something that’s never been done before, whether that’s searching for a cure or manufacturing a new product that improves human experience. She’s a tremendous ally for people who are looking to break through limitations and do something original and worthwhile in science and industry. She sees herself as a guide and a champion for the thinkers, creators, researchers, and geniuses she encounters. Her territory includes Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.

More about Michelle

Every time I meet a customer, I think, “these people are geniuses.” I look at the processes and the products they’re creating using science and think it’s remarkable. But, even geniuses want to do more, they strive for better, they look for new ways to break through barriers. That’s human, snd something I can relate to.

High Tech and Human

Virtual and personal support

It seems Dirk Frese, our VP of sales, marketing, and service might be a bit psychic. For the last few years, he’s been working on some high tech, 21st-century technologies that have prepared us well for these strange times. His passion for innovation has made it possible for us to deliver, install, train, and service customers from afar. And while we’ve launched things like virtual delivery, augmented reality service through LucaVision, and holographic displays to reduce shipping costs, customer wait times, and carbon footprints, we’ve always done it with one thing in mind — helping people. Dirk was recently interviewed by Neil C. Hughes for the Tech Talks Daily Podcast where he shared how high tech innovation using a human approach can help propel us into a brighter future.

Listen to the Podcast

Technology has helped us prepare for the future and brought us closer to our customers. But, technology isn’t enough, you have to pair it with the human element. You have to make technology attractive, exciting, personal, and valuable to the customer and the relationship.
