We run the websites for manufacturing associations across New England

Industrial Marketing builds and runs the websites of manufacturers associations, NTMA chapters and an aerospace and defense consortium across New England. It's the same manufacturing know-how we bring to every plant, put to work for the groups that hold the region's manufacturers together.

Who we power

These are the associations and consortiums whose websites we run.

Why manufacturing associations work with us

Associations work with us because we already speak manufacturing. We know the processes, certifications and buyer checks that make a member directory useful, so each listing says what a member makes in terms a buyer can search.

Association staff are stretched between events, members and the board. We take the website off their plate: the build, the monthly care and the technical side, with one team that answers when something needs to change.

What we run for associations

These are the parts of an association's web presence we take off the staff's plate. Which parts we run differs by association.

  1. Step 1, OP 10

    Website build

    A site that says what the association does for its members, built so staff can post news and events without waiting on anyone.

  2. Step 2, OP 20

    Hosting and care

    Hosting, updates, backups and security, handled every month so the site stays up and current.

  3. Step 3, OP 30

    Member directory

    A directory that says what each member actually makes, so a buyer looking for a capability in the region can find who runs it.

  4. Step 4, OP 40

    Events and news

    Event listings, registrations and member news, kept current between board meetings.

  5. Step 5, OP 50

    Discovery Suite for member companies

    A discovery program for member companies: what each plant can really do, written down so their own sites can say it.

Questions about Powering Partners

What does Industrial Marketing do for manufacturing associations?

We build and run their websites: hosting, updates, backups and security, member directories, and event and news listings. For some, we've also run discovery work for member companies. Which parts we run differs by association.

Does member data go into IKE?

Only with the association's and the member's agreement. What IKE learns is how manufacturers describe their work. Member records stay theirs.

Can a nonprofit get website help at no fee?

Yes. If you run an association, chapter or consortium that supports manufacturers, we'll help keep your website current, secure and working at no fee.

Can member companies work with you directly?

Yes. Member companies can hire us for anything we do for other industrial companies, starting with the paid Buyers Blueprint.
