The Maker Marketing Podcast Laura Benjamin

Laura Benjamin of Satellite Six reveals key marketing strategies that position manufacturers as best-in-market and help them achieve focused new growth. From distribution to retail, discover the techniques other manufacturers are using that can work for your business to better build your audience, develop strong brand messaging, and create sales opportunities like never before. With over 15 years of marketing experience, Laura has consulted with hundreds of manufacturers and businesses to improve their brand marketing results. Design, positioning, audience profiling, website experience, social media, message, and everything working (and not working) with manufacturers to help you better stand out and leap ahead of the competition.

Laura speaks with Kevin Sofen of WS Darley & Co about how their marketing was all about becoming thought leaders in their industry. They created SmartFirefighting.com as a way to further their mission - and ended up evolving their entire industry in the process.

On this episode, I speak with Eric Boud of Rover Manufacturing Consulting. While I was originally interested in speaking with him due to his experience in helping manufacturers outsource to China, we touched on everything from the benefits of outsourcing vs insourcing, general marketing practice, and even how your HR and staffing efforts can be more effective in a competitive marketplace.

This week, Laura talks with Rose-Marie Brandwein about the RAPID Institute and Process Intensification, and how they work to become a thought leader in their customer's industry.
