In the latest episode of Becoming Preferred with host Michael Vickers, our Founder and CEO Nick Foy opens up about the journey that shaped the Silverdale philosophy. From boots-on-the-ground work in manufacturing and logistics to building one of the most trusted names in Odoo implementation,
Nick shares how real-world experience—not theory—became the foundation for everything we do at Silverdale. If you’ve ever wondered why our implementations are so process-driven and results-focused, this conversation offers a powerful glimpse into the “why” behind it all.
More than just a career story, this episode is a reminder that great systems come from lived experience. Nick discusses how understanding operational pain points firsthand gave him the insight to build solutions that work where it matters most—on the shop floor, in the warehouse, and across your teams. If you're a founder, operator, or leader building something real, this episode is well worth a listen.
