The Today in Manufacturing Podcast is brought to you by the editors from Manufacturing.net and Industrial Equipment News (IEN).

This week's episode is sponsored by Adobe. Changing customer expectations and increasing cost and competitive pressures are forcing industrial manufacturers to rethink how they engage with buyers to grow revenue, improve profitability and gain operational efficiencies. Jon Burdette from Adobe and David Mantey recently sat down to talk about what industrial manufacturers should consider with their commerce initiatives, and how they should tie into their digital customer experience. Watch it now.
