the challenge
The company was facing
- Outdated brand identity that did not reflect the company’s long history of precision and its innovative approach
- Ineffective marketing efforts that were generating poor-quality leads
- Dated website presence that didn’t engage or inform visitors
- Missed opportunities to showcase E-Fab’s expertise in engineering, manufacturing, and quality assurance that benefit industry leaders
In today’s B2B environment, 67% of buyers complete most of their research online before contacting suppliers. E-Fab’s outdated approach was invisibly costing them qualified opportunities.
the solution
We took a strategic approach to building a new E-Fab.
The Farinella team interviewed clients, management, and company personnel to understand what set them apart. We developed E-Fab’s core narrative, one story at a time, and then used those truths to craft a new brand and logo that reflected precision and innovation, with a nod to the company’s history.
We developed a series of logo concepts to begin the process and worked with the client to select a mark inspired by a part manufactured at E-Fab. Our design team developed a color and typography palette that evoked precision. The copywriting and creative direction team built a tone and voice document tailored to engineering decision-makers. We brought them together in a Brand Style Guide to ensure consistency across all touch points.
We utilized our learnings and the new look to develop an informative and engaging website, where we prioritized the information we knew engineers needed to pick E-Fab:
- Capabilities showcase detailing the company’s expertise and experience working in several industries with demanding technical specifications
- Material expertise and information are readily available for engineers
- Industry-specific solutions to speak directly to information seekers
Our team also visited E-Fab’s facility to photograph and video the process and people for added authenticity and realism.
The entire website was optimized for mobile devices, speed, and security.
Once launched, our digital marketing team strategized and optimized content, pay-per-click, and traditional SEO campaigns.
Specifically, we:
- Researched keywords for manufacturing-specific terms
- ICP and audience development for cost-effective spends
- Built campaigns across Google and Bing for pay-per-click advertising
- Executed technical SEO to ensure speed
- RFQ form optimization
- Directory, back-links, and guest posts for national and local SEO
- Continuously monitored and optimized campaigns for cost-per-conversion
The results from our work show consistent improvement —
In addition to ongoing digital marketing work, we create and execute content marketing and authority-building campaigns that feature technical blog posts on E-Fab’s manufacturing expertise, education content for engineers, and content written for search everywhere optimization (both search and LLM traffic). Our social media team produced informative and engaging LinkedIn posts, built relationships through community management, and grew E-Fab’s followers.
Throughout our engagement, we’ve partnered with E-Fab management to uncover new opportunities through outbound marketing campaigns such as Account-Based Marketing, Trade Show Creative, Collateral, and Follow-up Email Campaigns, as well as LinkedIn advertising efforts.
Our ABM strategy includes:
- Ideal customer profile definition
- Target account identification and research
- Multi-channel engagement strategy
- Lead magnet content and design for lead nurturing
- Programmatic advertising to target accounts
- LinkedIn advertising with custom audiences
- Email marketing sequences
- Sales enablement materials
To deliver the best possible results, we optimized E-Fab’s marketing tech-stack using HubSpot and Apollo IO.
