Our guest is Joe Sullivan (@sullivan_joe), host of The Manufacturing Executive podcast and Founder, Gorilla 76 (@gorilla76). This is episode 64 of the Augmented Podcast (@AugmentedPod), the topic is: Marketing Mindset in Manufacturing. In this conversation, we talked about marketing tips for manufacturers, best practices from foundations to demand generation, distinguishing yourself by consistency. Augmented reveals the stories behind the new era of industrial operations, where technology will restore the agility of frontline workers. Technology is changing rapidly. What’s next in the digital factory? Who is leading the change? What are the key skills to learn? How to stay up to date on manufacturing and industry 4.0? Augmented is a podcast for industrial leaders, process engineers and shop floor operators, hosted by futurist Trond Arne Undheim (@trondau), presented by Tulip (@tulipinterfaces), the frontline operations platform. Trond's takeaway: The challenge of developing a credible yet effective marketing mindset is not unique to manufacturing, but it may be unusually underutilized in this sector. Industrial products and services are notoriously lagging behind the consumer market in terms of the sophistication of its communication, messaging, and use of social media. As industry seeks increasing relevance in people's life, or even seeks to recruit new talent from younger generations, that needs to change. Luckily, there are tools and practices to learn from and they are not rocket science, but take a willingness to commit. Thanks for listening.
