Help the Manufacturers You Serve Stop Being the Best-Kept Secret

Associations and Manufacturing Extension Partnerships are built to help manufacturers grow. The Digital Game Plan gives the companies you serve a proven process to get found online and turn their expertise into content buyers trust.

Are Your Manufacturers Getting Found?

Most of the companies you work with make great products and have deep expertise. Many have never had a marketing plan. Buyers research online first, and they call the companies they find.

What They Need

A clear strategy for sales growth, focused on their best customers and the questions those buyers ask before they call.

What Gets in the Way

No time, no marketing team and no plan. Owners are busy running the business, and marketing keeps getting pushed to tomorrow.

What You Can Offer

A proven process, delivered with your organization, that helps them build a plan and see results they can measure.

Let's Out-Teach the Competition.

The manufacturers you serve don't need to outspend them.

It's the idea behind everything we do. Engineers and buyers want to learn, and they trust the companies that answer their questions first, clearly and generously.

The manufacturers you serve already have the answers. Together, we help them turn that know-how into a steady stream of education that makes them the go-to experts in their markets.

Ways to Partner

Every partnership is built around the manufacturers you serve and the way your organization already works. Start with one, or combine them.

Open Roundtables

Live sessions where your manufacturers learn the Digital Game Plan, ask questions and see how companies like theirs are getting found.

Cohorts

Small groups of manufacturers build their Digital Game Plans together, with coaching from Curt and Damon every step of the way.

Community

An ongoing community where your manufacturers keep learning, share what's working and keep their momentum going.

Expert Sessions

Co-hosted live shows and Jam Sessions that put your experts and your manufacturers in front of a wider audience.

Hear What Manufacturers Like You Are Saying About the Digital Game Plan

Owners, marketers and sales leaders, in their own words.

One of the biggest eye-openers was realizing that a five-minute conversation could become 30 different pieces of content. More importantly, we started having people call and say, 'I found you online.'

Carl Stroud, Sales Manager, Niagara Specialty Metals · Watch the video

Definitely one of the best grant funded projects that we've done, and certainly one of the best marketing projects.

Ryan Bankel, CEO, Imago Manufacturing · Watch the video

I learned so much about LinkedIn, SEO, and how AI fits into all of it. I also learned how to interview people, turn those conversations into blogs, and build a content process that really works.

Matthew Pittelkau, Marketing Director, Se-Kure Controls · Watch the video

You checked a lot of boxes. It seems like people are finding us, and business has been solid over the past few months. We'll just keep building and keep it going.

Bob Shabala, President & CEO, Niagara Specialty Metals · Watch the video

Theresa and the team were incredibly helpful throughout the process, making what initially felt overwhelming much easier to understand. I learned so much about LinkedIn, ChatGPT, websites, and Google Business Profiles.

Becky O'Connor, Truco Machine · Watch the video

This was a great opportunity for us to have a third-person point of view on what we are dealing with as a business, and then we were able to redefine who our customer is clearly, and then learn how to approach those people.

Their expertise allowed us to focus on what was unique about Niagara Specialty Metals and our business, while they showed us how to use the tools, create the content, and put everything into action.

We knew we needed to get out there and market ourselves online, but we didn't know how.
