B2B marketing for manufacturers is its own discipline — not a remix of B2B SaaS, not consumer with a longer sales cycle. Most of the strategy problems mid-size manufacturers face have one of three root causes: the wrong playbook (B2B SaaS templates applied to capital equipment), the wrong attribution (impressions chased instead of revenue), or the wrong team (junior staff doing the work that was sold by senior strategists). This post will walk through each one, starting with what we see most often.
