NEWSFLASH: Today is the final day to get Early Bird tickets for Industrial Marketing Summit 2026. If you want to get the best price for the most relevant marketing conference out there for manufacturers, engineering firms and technical companies, don't wait. ⚙️ industrialmarketingsummit(dot)com -- Just hearing about IMS for the first time? WELCOME! 🤗 The Industrial Marketing Summit was born out the conviction that marketers in industrial and engineering-driven companies deserve more than generic marketing playbooks. In working with hundreds of industrial and engineering clients, Gorilla 76 and TREW Marketing saw a common need – not just for better marketing knowledge, but for a community of people who face the same challenges, speak the same language and are ready to share what works. The conference is tailored to empower marketers in manufacturing and engineering companies with the strategies, tools and connections they need to lead confidently and grow their organizations – especially in lean, high-stakes environments where smart strategy matters most. #industrialmarketing #marketingconference #ims2026

Like a lot of manufacturers, the work we’re most proud of often happens behind the scenes. But being the best-kept secret isn’t doing your bottom line any favors. So when it’s time to bring that work to light, we believe it should be done with thoughtful purpose. Our content team knows how to turn complex value propositions into clear, compelling narratives — and one of our favorite ways to do that is through video. Thank you to our clients who’ve had us on site and trusted us to tell your stories in a visual way. Give our new reel a watch below, and get hyped with us. 🎥

Next week at #MTForecast in Schaumburg, Gorilla 76’s Joe Sullivan and Brendon Forrest 🪖🦍 take the stage. On Oct. 15, Brendon and Joe lead a positioning workshop for manufacturing leaders who value word of mouth – but are ready to scale that trust by clarifying their message for the right audience. Then on Oct. 17, Joe returns as a keynote speaker, tackling how manufacturers can align marketing ROI with business strategy. 👇

On October 17th, I’ll be back on stage at MTForecast for the second straight year – this time answering a question every manufacturing leader has asked at some point: “What’s the ROI of our marketing?” It’s the right instinct – but sometimes the wrong question, especially if you’re measuring ROI in months when your sales cycle is measured in quarters (or years). In my talk, I’ll cover: ⚙️ Why focusing on ROI too early can mislead you when it comes to marketing impact ⚙️ How to choose the right metrics when you're goal is short-term sales vs. long-term sustainable growth ⚙️ Aligning your key stakeholders around the most important BUSINESS OUTCOMES before deciding what tactics to execute and what success looks like Thanks to Christopher Downs and the crew at AMT - The Association For Manufacturing Technology for having me back! #mtforecast #manufacturing #industrialmarketing

Your marketing team needs to PRIME THE MARKET for sales. Here’s what I mean... If your ideal customers are seeing you regularly – through the content you publish, the events you host, the insights you share – you’re not just building awareness. You’re building trust. Then, when a trigger moment happens, like... 👉 they begin developing a new product 👉 it's time to expand their facility 👉 their current provider drops the ball 👉 (or whatever your customer's triggers are) ... you’re already on their radar. They know who you are. They’ve heard your perspective. They believe you’re an expert. That’s when sales conversations start to look totally different. You’re not starting from scratch, rattling off credentials and convincing them you’re a fit. You’re picking up a conversation with someone who already trusts you. I see it all the time in our business at Gorilla 76. After 270+ straight weeks of hosting The Manufacturing Executive Podcast, our team running bi-monthly live events (Industrial Marketing Collective Live) for four years, co-hosting The Industrial Marketing Summit and publishing insights across channels, we’ve had countless prospects say: “We’ve been following you for a while. You’re the only agency we’re talking to.” That’s not luck. That’s the compounding effect of showing up consistently in front of the right people. And here’s the thing: it doesn’t have to be a podcast or big events. It just has to be your version of consistently demonstrating expertise in front of the right audience. #industrialmarketing #manufacturing #b2bmarketing

We love to see it.

I love when I see our employees living our core values, especially outside of “9–5." So today, I gotta highlight our core value of Kindness and Gorilla 76's Brendon Forrest 🪖🦍. This past weekend, I traveled to Camp Ripley to see Brendon in his role of Garrison Commander in the Minnesota National Guard. Day one was for employers, and it was a chance for us to understand more about the role of our Guard/Reserve employees and how we can better support them. Day two was an open house for the community at large where anyone could learn more about what these men and women do. Here's where the core value of Kindness comes in... There wasn't a SINGLE kid that wanted to get on a tank or truck or helo or plane that Garrison Commander Forrest wasn't helping or reminding to be safe. And the same goes for adults with questions - he was there to field them all with a handshake and a smile. Brendon, thank you for wearing the uniform and living our core values. You make Gorilla proud, and it's an honor to have you on this team. 🦍
