Manufacturing Solution Provider
(i.e. You are a Machine Builder, Software Developer, Consulting Firm, Distributor, etc).
Keeping up with the
speed of manufacturing
The business of manufacturing has changed drastically in a relatively short period of time. Factories used to be better staffed and qualified people had more specific roles. Innovation didn't happen quite as fast and trade shows were packed with all the right people you wanted to talk to every year - it was really the only marketing you needed to do. For Solution Providers, just having a good product, sales people and reputation was enough to be prosperous.
Times have changed.
The new era of manufacturing has presented more challenges to contend with, as a Manufacturing Solution Provider:
-
Those same factories might have half the personnel but more than double the output they used to. It is hard to get anyone's attention, unless they are hyper-focused on the issue.
-
With how fast everything changes, you have to ensure your product is enough to meet, or exceed, current efficiency demands. If it is, have you positioned it correctly so manufacturers know that as well?
-
Marketing used to just be manufacturing expos and trade magazines. Now you have to contend with those plus websites, social media, search engine marketing, and more. Whereas it used to be more regional, the solution provider network globalized - more suppliers vying for attention from the same manufacturers.
