The Right Marketing “Mix” for Reaching Niche Industrial Audiences

It takes more than a few well-placed ads to get results from your industrial marketing efforts, especially if you’re trying to reach a niche audience.

For example, if you’re creating marketing content for the additive manufacturing industry, you have to get into the trenches of their world. Trying to market to specifiers? Then you need to research engineering applications and learn what they do. Want to connect with automobile manufacturers? Then you’d better be prepared to learn lean manufacturing concepts.
