Manufacturing Marketing

Marketing for manufacturers who sell through dealers, reps, and RFQs.

Your buyers research for months, compare specs, and then call a dealer or submit an RFQ. I build the pages, campaigns, and reporting that get you into that research and show you which of it turned into orders.

Why manufacturer marketing stalls.

Your product pages list specs but don't rank, so buyers find a competitor or a distributor first.
Dealers and reps get the leads, and you never learn which campaign or page produced them.
Paid search for high-ticket equipment burns budget on tire-kickers because the campaign structure treats every click the same.
Sales history lives in one system, web data in another, and nobody has connected them. Planning runs on gut feel.

Process

How it works.

1

Audit the funnel

I review how buyers find you today: rankings by product line, paid search structure, dealer page coverage, and what your CRM knows about lead source.

2

Build the pages that rank

Location, dealer, and product pages with the structure Google needs and the specs buyers need. Usually the fastest organic win in this industry.

3

Restructure paid

Campaigns by product line and intent, tracking on the actions that matter, and budget moved toward what produces RFQs.

4

Connect reporting to sales

A dashboard that joins web data with sales history so you can see which products, regions, and channels are actually moving units.

Manufacturing marketing from Austin

Central Texas has a growing manufacturing base, and most of it markets the same way it did ten years ago: a brochure site, a booth at the trade show, and a rep network doing the rest. That's a gap. The manufacturers that build ranking product and location pages, run paid search by product line, and connect their web data to sales history get the RFQs their competitors never see.

Common questions.

We sell through dealers. Does marketing even help us?+

Yes, and dealer pages are usually the first thing I build. Buyers search for your product and a city. If the page they land on is yours, you control the message and the lead routing. If it's a distributor's, you don't.

Our sales cycle is six to eighteen months. How do you measure anything?+

I track the early signals: RFQ submissions, spec-sheet downloads, dealer inquiries, and returning visitors by product line. Then I connect those to your sales history so long cycles still show up in the reporting.

Can you work with our existing reps and dealer network?+

That's the point. The pages and campaigns feed leads to the right territory, and the reporting shows reps which inquiries came from marketing. Nothing bypasses your channel.

What does this cost?+

Engagements start at $1,500 a month. Most manufacturers land on the Growth tier at $2,500 for 30 hours, since location pages, paid search, and reporting usually run together. Every tier is month-to-month.

Do you work with manufacturers outside Texas?+

Yes. I'm based in Austin and work with manufacturers nationwide. The work is remote by default, with in-person kickoffs where it helps.
