Steven & Tammy of Baillie Fabricating & Welding, Inc.
Steve and Tammy of Baillie Fabricating & Welding join us on today's episode. Together they have been running a 10-person full-service job shop for over 30 years. They discuss how they divide responsibilities (Steve leading operations and production, Tammy handling accounting, HR, and risk), how they set boundaries to avoid bringing work conflict home, and how to resolve disagreements by stepping away and seeking outside mentoring. Steve shares why he left a trucking fabrication career to start the business, a leap of faith buying their first laser to compete in thin-gauge work, and a painful lesson from investing in robotic welding while relying too heavily on one customer. They also cover credit policies and collections practices, hiring for character over skill, Tammy’s lesson about switching from a large payroll vendor to a local provider, and Steve’s move from job shop work into manufacturing by developing a durable stainless bracket and guards to combat fuel-dispenser break-ins and organized fuel theft.
