Longstanding West Michigan Company Expands With New Name & Brand
Fettig, formerly known as AmeriTemp Staffing diversifies services
to meet customer demand

Grand Rapids, Mich. —West Michigan’s premier staffing company, Ameritemp Staffing has rejuvenated and re-launched its brand and corporate identity to be in line with the organization’s new growth and diversification strategy, offering expanded services in Office, Direct Hire, Light Industrial and Skilled Manufacturing staffing.  The company’s new name is Fettig with the tagline ‘When the right person matters.’

“Once we expanded our business, it was clear we had outgrown our name. We needed a name that represented our staff, culture and the fact that we are a family-owned business…something we value very much,” said Kim Fettig, company founder.  “With anticipated growth between 30 to 50% for the coming year, we knew this was the time to make the change and announce to the community in which we live, work and play.”

The growth, diversification and rebrand have allowed Fettig to add talent to their team to serve clients in other disciplines with quality candidates. The company has doubled employment and revenues in the past 5 years.

“Our focus is on people. We believe you have to have the right people on the bus and in the right seats. The right culture will keep them there and allow them to thrive. We have a fantastic culture,” said Mike Fettig, vice president of operations. “Our success isn’t found in matching a resume with a job description. It’s the ability to identify good chemistry between the individual and the rest of the organization. That is a skill that takes time and experience to develop and we excel at it.”

The company will celebrate their rebrand, diversification and expansion with a community open house on October 16th, from 3:00 – 7:00 p.m. at their recently expanded office space at 6151 28th Street SE Ste 9, Grand Rapids, MI 49546.

FUN FACT FRIDAY: It’s only fitting for us to own a building where a trailblazing female operated her businesses in 1906. The Phillips family represented one of the longest-running retail tenures in Grand Rapids history; L.E. Phillips Jewelry in the 1365 Plainfield Ave. building from 1906 until 1973. 
Dr. Eva Phillips, a certified and licensed optometrist ran her practice out of the jewelry store’s secondary parlor and was an equal partner in the jewelry store. 

Together, they offered a unique one-stop shot which expanded to include appliances, record players, and more. The couple operated the shop through two World Wars and the Great Depression, acting as the neighborhood matriarch and patriarch.

Have you tuned into The Happy Hour Hustle Podcast yet?
If not, a) you’re missing out and b) you need to follow immediately. Hosted by @bodespeaks, episodes drop every other week, and feature some pretty bada$$ guests if we do say so ourselves.

This week, Kim sits down with @kelsey_orchard , VP of Marketing and Communications at @fifthwheelfreight to chat building a personal brand, Gen Z entering the workforce, misconceptions about logistics, spotting fake LinkedIn profiles – oh and why your GPA doesn’t matter anymore.

National Perimenopause Month starts today. We have a LOT to say, and we’re not going to be quiet about it, especially this month, so buckle up.

We were not prepared for perimenopause, much like our periods, sex, or anything else to do with our bodies. God forbid we talk about it openly.

We were taught to be ashamed, keep quiet, and to accept that it is just part of being a woman. We reject that narrative. In fact, like @bodespeaks, we want to bring it up in every conversation. 

When we normalize perimenopause and the conversation around it, we stop isolating, and we’re all more prepared.
Join us for Uncomfortable Conversations: The Pause on September 24th — a powerful conversation hosted alongside the @smallbusinessassocofmichigan 
Women’s Business Council, featuring some kicka$$ experts who will give you the real talk on perimenopause (more to come on them later).
