The Manufacturing Marketer

Aren and Nihal tackle content plans: What goes into them and how make them into tight, effective road maps for delivering your messaging. We’ll dig into how we do content plans at Gorilla and what we think makes a good one strong.

A call-to-action is much more than a "buy now" button. Most of your potential buyers aren't in buy mode, so you must meet them where they are today if you want to be their chosen solution tomorrow. Gorilla 76 senior writers Allen Fennewald and Mary Tomlinson join this weeks IML to talk all things CTA.

Elianna Novitch, PR and content strategy specialist at Two Rivers Marketing, is back with us on the podcast to dive into some more tactical execution that’ll help you get started on your PR strategy. Among other things, we’ll tackle how to write a strong press release and pitch to editors.

Public relations = trade publication placements? Think again.

From talking points to building social capital that will earn you media placements, Elianna Novitch joins us as our resident expert to introduce us to the power of PR and how it plays into your go-to-market strategy.

As former in-house industrial marketers, we're taking some time this week to reflect on that experience as well as our time working on the agency side at Gorilla 76. We'll cover some of our biggest aha moments from the past couple of years working in an agency, AND how we would apply them as an in-house marketer.

On our last episode, we talked about industrial websites with special guests, Beth Bauer and Tim Roenicke from Fullerton Tool. Fullerton has a GREAT website, but they’re kind of unique, because they have an in-house developer (hi Tim!) who has hard coded a lot of the unique features they have.

In this follow up episode, we talk more about different routes to building your website, whether it's DIYing it with a CMS like Wordpress, or bringing on a part time, 3rd party developer to help you get started.

How do you create a website that turns potential buyers into new customers? Lots of love and care.

This week Beth Bauer joined IML to share how she manages her industrial website's best features, tips learned from mistakes made along the way and resources that will help you improve your own digital address. We also got to hear from the website's developer, Tim Roenicke.

We know tradeshows and other live events are a big part of marketing for industrial companies. You spend a lot of money and time on them, and it’s important to squeeze out every ounce of value can from those live events.
