EMAIL

Email marketing for engineering & manufacturing

The contacts you already have — past customers, old quotes, trade show lists — are the cheapest sales pipeline you own. Email marketing keeps you front of mind for the day their current supplier lets them down, at a fraction of the cost of winning a brand-new customer.

Who it's for

Is this you?

For industrial firms sitting on years of contacts they never email: lapsed customers, quoted-but-never-ordered prospects, trade counter accounts. If your sales team says “we should really keep in touch with these people” but nobody ever does — that's an email programme waiting to happen.

What's included

How we approach it.

Campaigns & newsletters

Regular, genuinely useful emails — new capabilities, lead times, case studies, technical tips — that keep your name in the buyer's mind without pestering.

Automations

Welcome sequences for new enquiries, re-engagement for old quotes, follow-ups after jobs complete — running quietly in the background, every single time.

List building & segmentation

Growing your list properly and legally (GDPR-compliant), segmented so fabricator clients don't get emails meant for distributors.

Deliverability done right

SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up properly, sending reputation protected — so your emails land in inboxes, not junk folders.

The process

Step by step.

List audit

What contacts you hold, where, and what you can legally use.

Foundations

Platform setup, GDPR compliance, deliverability records (SPF/DKIM).

Automations

Welcome, re-engagement and follow-up sequences built once, working forever.

Campaign rhythm

A sustainable monthly cadence of genuinely useful emails.

Optimise

Open, click and enquiry data used to sharpen every future send.

Common questions

Straight answers.

Is email marketing still worth it in 2026?
For B2B industrial, emphatically yes — it consistently delivers the highest return of any channel because you're talking to people who already know you. The average buyer changes supplier rarely; email means you're the first call when they finally do.
Is it legal to email our old customers and quote contacts?
Generally yes for B2B under UK GDPR/PECR, where there's a legitimate interest and an existing relationship — with proper unsubscribe options. We set this up compliantly and document the basis, so you're covered.
How often should we email without annoying people?
For most industrial firms, monthly is the sweet spot — enough to stay remembered, rare enough to stay welcome. Automations handle the rest, triggered by behaviour rather than a calendar.
