Industrial, Manufacturing & Engineering marketing, paid on results

CNC, fabrication, molding, automation, packaging and commercial HVAC. Fewer inquiries, far larger projects, tracked as RFQs and qualified meetings.

Industrial buyers search differently: fewer searches, longer evaluation, and a request for quote that can be worth five or six figures. One qualified RFQ from a manufacturer or engineering firm can justify a quarter of marketing spend. We flag fabrication, CNC and fire-suppression installers as opportunities to test next.

The Growth Engine runs capability-specific paid search (materials, processes, certifications), LinkedIn targeting of buyers and engineers, technical content that ranks and gets cited by AI assistants, an RFQ flow that captures drawings and specs, and attribution in your CRM or ERP. We bill on qualified RFQs and buyer meetings held.

Business types we serve and what we bill on

Every engagement is built around one billable event per business, defined in writing with a rejection policy. These are the events we use in this vertical.
