Marketing For Engineering Businesses Built To Spec

Marketing For Engineers Is a Little Different To Other Industries

Highly technical industries are always interested in branding and marketing. The work you’re doing may be technical, but the people you’re trying to sell it to often don’t really need to know as much information as you think they do to make a decision. Marketing’s goal is to get you found and get them in the door. THEN you can win them over.

This is what we do at Whitespace Marketing. We help you find that balanced voice and marketing that gets the point across without overdoing it. Engineers have been turning to us for more than 20 years to stop overthinking, chasing and unnecessary extra layers, creating marketing that does the job and keeps things moving. Check out our Branding Roadmap to see our unique process.

Words are powerful. They are so powerful that 68% of businesses say brand consistency contributes to a more than 10% to 20% growth in their revenue. What would that type of boost in your revenue do for your business?

Working with an integrated marketing communications agency to develop your brand voice and ensure it’s consistent across your website, social media and other content, so you don’t even have to think about it. We find your story and how to tell it so it captivates people to use your business. Discover our branding roadmap and how we’ll do it.

Branding & Marketing That Actually Gets You Tenders

What Marketing For Engineering Firms Can Involve

Engineering Marketing Communications

Don’t take this the wrong way, but there’s a chance you’re overcomplicating what you do. The people you’re marketing to don’t really need to know the specifics. Just that you can get what they need done and why you’re the best at it. We’ll help you nail that messaging.

Custom Engineering Websites

Speaking of overcomplicating things, your website is one of the most important places to make clear about what you do. Using our 20+ years of experience, we’ll build you a custom website that gets the right message across, while getting you found.

Social Media For Engineers

A lot of engineering businesses go straight for ads. But you’re leaving a huge opportunity untapped in refining your organic messaging on social platforms, getting the word out about what you do and building a solid community, not just a following.

Fractional CMO For Engineers

 

You may have a marketing team or you may be trying to do it all yourself. A fractional CMO can work with either, guiding you or your team with a fresh perspective that helps you focus on what actually needs to be done to get results, not just to tick a checklist.

Our Proven Marketing & Communications Services

Brand Voice Development

Ever tried to explain what your business does, but found it’s just too much to cover? Our brand development team will work with you to create your own communications handbook. This guide gives you and your team the right words for in-person conversations and across all your marketing, so you can always get it right.

Website
Content

We don’t need to tell you how important your website is to your business’s success. If you feel like your existing website isn’t getting you the results you need or you just need one in the first place, we can take care of that for you. Your custom website will help you prove you can solve specific problems no one else can to win you new business.

Social Media Communications

So many businesses treat social media like another checkbox to just get done each week. But getting it right can make a huge difference in your bottom line. Figuring out what to post or what to say on those posts is probably the last thing you have time for in your day. That’s why our marketing and communications services include social media, so you don’t have to!

What to Expect Working With Our Engineering Marketing Agency

Working with an engineering marketing agency is meant to be solving problems, not adding them to your day. We like to be super upfront about our process to make sure you know what we’re doing and what you can expect.

1

First things first, we want to get to know you. But not just you alone. We speak with stakeholders, clients, team members and anyone you’ll let us have access to all in the pursuit of getting to know the real you we’re to bring to life.

2

All of this is then used to define your business. We put in place the frameworks and benchmarks that need to be met, including the way you need to sound and look to get your point across to bring on new clients.

3

Once we have a framework, we work out what is working within that now, what’s not, where there’s opportunities and any weaknesses that may not be ideal for marketing your engineering business.

4

Now for the ‘fun’ stuff. Well, at least to us. We pull all the brains in a room and connect the dots so a proper strategy that all works in sync is formed. It’s all documented and presented to you so you can see our vision.

5

After that, and with your blessing, we get into the work. Everything gets rolled out and managed properly so your marketing and branding finally make sense without turning into something else that needs your attention.

We’re As Serious About Marketing Engineering As You Are Doing It

We’re not engineers. So how can we do marketing for an engineering business? With our process and 20+ years of experience, quite easily actually.

Sometimes businesses are too close, so they can’t, or maybe don’t want to, see what’s wrong or where they may be not making the most of opportunities. So, we do all the nitty gritty work of pulling everything apart and putting everything back together to find what’s missing, and getting you those results you’re truly after. 

Our owners are involved in every brand and marketing strategy because this is the name of their line. They truly care about taking you to the next level and getting you results. And, we try to make it as fun as possible, because who wants to do something that isn’t?

The Types of Engineering Businesses We Really Geek Out On

  • Civil & structural engineering firms
  • Mechanical engineering companies
  • Electrical engineering businesses
  • Environmental engineering companies
  • Mining & resources engineering
  • Construction & project engineering
  • Industrial engineering firms
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Fire protection engineering

On the fence? There’s no harm in a chat.

Most people wait to reach out to a branding agency or fractional CMO when they have the perfect idea or moodboard. You don’t need any of that.

If you’ve even had the thought your branding isn’t right or working for you, we can chat and make it work. It all starts with a free, no-pressure chat.

Drop us a message or give us a call and we’ll go from there at your pace.
