Social media for manufacturers.

Posts from your floor keep your Google listing and LinkedIn current, for about ten minutes of your team’s time a week.

Sound familiar?

Most manufacturers we talk to are dealing with at least one of these.

  1. 01

    Your Google listing and LinkedIn page look abandoned

    Someone set them up years ago, and nobody has touched them since. The category is too broad, the hours are missing, there are no photos of your floor, and the last post is years old. That listing is often the first thing Google shows when someone searches your company name.

    How we fix it. We correct every field first, add real photos of your floor, and keep both pages current from then on.

    Buyers check whether you are still running

    A buyer who heard your name at a show or from a referral looks you up before calling. An empty profile tells them very little, and they start to wonder whether the shop is still busy.

    How we fix it. Three posts a week, one on work in progress, one on a capability, and one about the company, show anyone who checks that a shift is on.

    1. Hears your name
    2. Searches your company
    3. “Are they still running?”

    Good candidates look you up and keep looking

    Machinists, welders, and inspectors check a company before they apply. They read the reviews and look at the photos to picture what a shift there is like, and a dated site with an empty LinkedIn page tells them to keep looking.

    How we fix it. The same posts show your floor, your people, and your equipment, and we write a reply to every review for you to approve.

    Empty page

    No recent posts. Reviews left unanswered.

    Nobody has time to post

    Social media lands on whoever has a spare hour, which is nobody. A few posts go out after a trade show, and then the page goes quiet again.

    How we fix it. We send a short shot list each month. Someone who already walks the floor takes photos and clips on a phone, in about ten minutes a week, and we do everything else.

What you get, and what it costs

Both run month to month, at a fixed price.

Social media and Google

$1,900 a month

Three posts a week from your own floor across your Google Business Profile, LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and X. It includes the profile work, review replies, and a monthly report, and you can start it without a new website.

Google Business Profile on its own

$235 a month per profile

The most specific category, your services, photos of your floor, a reply to every review, two posts a month, and a monthly check that your phone number, hours, and website link still match. A plant with two locations has two profiles.

We also make short videos shot on your floor, such as process, equipment, and recruiting videos, edited for your website, YouTube, and LinkedIn. A logo is $360. Video, capability statements, proposal decks, line cards, and trade show material are quoted per project, and you get the quote in writing before anything starts. Every other price is on our pricing page.

Work we do every month

We manage the Google Business Profiles and social media for Phillips Light Industrial, alongside the five websites we built for the group. That project also included a logo system in black, white, and PLI yellow, applied across the four division websites.

Social media does the most when buyers can find you and your website answers their questions. Our manufacturing website design and SEO for manufacturing companies take care of those, and the case studies show the results. To write directly to buyers at the companies you want to supply, from your own LinkedIn profile and by email, see our outbound lead generation.

Questions manufacturers ask about social media

Does social media work for manufacturers?
Social media works for manufacturers in two ways: it shows buyers who are already checking you that the shop is busy, and it helps you hire. It rarely brings in quote requests on its own, because those start with a drawing. It works best beside a clear website and search work, which bring buyers to you in the first place.
How much does social media management for manufacturers cost?
Social media and Google Business Profile management is $1,900 a month, month to month, with no minimum term. It covers three posts a week across all six platforms, the profile work, review replies, and a monthly report. Google Business Profile management on its own is $235 a month per profile.
Do you need to visit the plant to take the photographs?
No. We send a short shot list each month, and someone on your team takes the photos and phone video in about ten minutes a week. A line running on an ordinary Tuesday shows your plant as it really looks.
Does social media advertising for manufacturers cost extra?
Advertising is not part of the $1,900 a month fee, and we do not run ad budgets or take a share of ad spend. The fee covers the posts, the profiles, the review replies, and the monthly report.
Why does a manufacturer need a Google Business Profile?
Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing Google shows when someone searches your company name, with your phone number, hours, photos, and reviews. It also puts your plant on the map when a buyer looks for a supplier in their region. You can score yours with our Google Business Profile scorecard.
