Leading Control and Automation Marketing Agency Empowering Organizations to Overcome Marketing Challenges

Written by Dan Konstantinovsky
Strategic Marketing, RH Blake

Eighty-five percent of industrial marketers use content marketing, but only 33% report their organization is clear on what a successful marketing program looks like. These statistics from the Content Marketing Institute reveal an alarming discrepancy. Too many control and automation companies are churning out marketing initiatives with weak foundations. They are not built on effective strategies or current market trends. The results: wasted resources and pitiful ROI.

These misguided efforts are understandable when we look at the current challenges of industrial marketing.

Growth Challenges Solved by Control and Automation-Focused Marketing Agency

First and foremost is the frequent flux of marketing. Control and automation marketers must keep up with myriad technologies and trends. The number of potential customer touchpoints continues to grow. Additionally, buyers have changed, and they continue to change. Marketers must understand and prioritize more marketing options than ever before.

Part of this challenge is to generate, not only more leads, but more of the right kind of leads. Optimized content that drives significant web traffic seems great. However, if this never generates business, these efforts are not producing the desired results. A shift in focus is clearly needed to convert these leads.

A key strategy in these conversions is effective content marketing. This poses a second challenge to marketers: How to influence prospects and channel partners with better control and automation content marketing. This is no easy task, as evidenced by the mere 46% of industrial marketers who report they deliver content consistently. Over the past year, 51% of industrial marketers admit a lack of strategy in this area has contributed to stagnant success.

Control and automation companies face the additional challenge of improving their market share. They want to expand, but it is difficult to maintain marketing strategies that grow with the business. The Content Marketing Institute reports only 33% of industrial marketers say their content marketing strategy has scalability. It’s easy for an organization to trip over out-grown shoes as it tries to leave a larger marketplace footprint.

The final biggest challenge facing industrial marketers is how to enhance margins. To do this, they must maintain razor-sharp initiatives that cut away all the fat and carve out additional market share. While taking risks to invest in new ideas and innovations, marketers must still ensure their endeavors achieve a high return. It’s a difficult balance to maintain.
