Given the text: Schulte Building Systems, Inc. (SBS) is an IAS AC472 accredited manufacturer of pre-engineered metal buildings, steel framing systems and building components. They retained us to handle their marketing from the very beginning when the company was founded in 2005 and continue to be one of our valued clients.
In 2008, they acquired Inland Building Systems in Alabama and we’ve been tasked to handle their marketing too. The combined company is one of the fastest growing metal building and component manufacturers in the country.
Challenge: SBS, founded in 2005, was new to the industry that is dominated by a few well-known companies. The challenge was to position the company in its unique niche when larger competitors were consolidating, growing bigger and often less personal when dealing with customers.
Solution: Our solution—an integrated industrial marketing strategy that included both print media and digital strategies. The entire strategy was based on the client’s three key principles—relationships, quality and service.
To communicate this message, we wrote text that focused on over fifty years of name recognition of the principal founder. A name that has built relationships, exemplified quality and stood the test of time.
We developed a series of print ads built around relationships, which was followed by one that demonstrated their rapid growth with the recent opening of a third manufacturing plant, which complemented their existing facilities in Hockley, TX and Hueytown, near Birmingham, AL. The call to action was to drive traffic to their Web site.
The new website, also developed by us, shows different building types, framing systems and components. The site offers easy 1-click access to relevant content.
A full color product catalog and other collateral materials were created for the sales team. A comprehensive catalog of components with CAD drawings and pricing information was produced for both print and posting to the site.
SBS acquires Inland Building Systems and expands its footprint throughout the Midwest and Southeast U.S.
Air & Vacuum Process (AVP) is a distributor of natural gas and compressed air dehydrators and accessories. They retained us to redesign their website, optimize it and provide ongoing marketing support.
