The Copy Systems Story
It was evident from the start in 1972, in a small unheated
garage located at 929 9th Street in West Des Moines, that Copy Systems,
Inc. is in the business of servicing our customers and providing a good,
stable place for people to build their careers. The founder of our company
as it is today, William E. Paterson, started his career in sales part
time at the age of 13 as a clothing sales representative. He learned that
you have to take care of your customers the way that they want to be serviced
if you are going to grow your business. His philosophy towards our employees
is one that encourages leadership, which involves teaching, motivating,
counseling and interaction with all employees. We strive for excellence
through improvement, personal achievement, community involvement, and
family development. We want to be recognized as a quality company that
everyone wants to work for and with which customers want to do business.
Today it is more important than ever for successful companies to create a feeling of security for employees in their every day lives. Copy Systems believes that when an employee goes to work, that they know that our company has a soul, spirit and personality that encourages long term career vision. We believe that if an employee is making the right choice in a company like ours and is committed to success, then "A winner never quits and a quitter never wins." We place a strong emphasis on attitudes, skills, and knowledge, that help us develop our people one step at a time, realizing that if anyone fails at a task, we will help them fail forward through training. No matter how large a corporation Copy Systems, Inc. becomes, we will always remember that every individual is unique and has great potential to our organization.
Every product that our company represents is supported by our quality customer service. Our employees treat our customers with the utmost respect, helping in any way possible. We try to think of how the customer is feeling so that their experience with Copy Systems is a positive one and will be relayed to everyone they know. Our employees are empowered to go above and beyond the call of duty to please the customer. Our company has been known for doing special things for our customers such as bringing bagels and homemade goodies on their visits to build relationships with our clients. We know that our customers are our most important asset and without them, none of us would have a job.
