For manufacturers and industrial companies doing $10M–$100M
Most manufacturers don't have a marketing problem. They have a revenue system nobody ever built.
Your product is good. Your reps are good. But leads sit in an inbox, quotes take four days, and your website hasn't produced a real opportunity in a year. I've spent 16 years fixing that from the inside — across 20+ companies, including as COO of a 300-person manufacturer I scaled from $12.5M to $75M. Meyer Ventures builds that same revenue infrastructure for companies like yours.
No pitch deck. I'll walk your site and funnel live and show you the three places you're losing money. 30 minutes.

Inside the P&L
Operating results from inside the businesses — not agency case studies. That distinction matters, and I'd rather you hear it from me than find it yourself.
The Reality
You're not losing deals to better products. You're losing them to faster systems.
Here's what I see in nearly every manufacturer I walk into:
Your website is a brochure. It describes what you make. It doesn't capture, qualify, or route a single opportunity.
RFQs go into an inbox. Someone gets to them when they get to them. Meanwhile the buyer already has two other quotes.
Nobody knows where the last 20 customers came from. So the marketing budget is a guess, defended annually with a shrug.
Your reps are your only channel. When one retires, the pipeline retires with them.
A competitor half your size is outranking you for the exact terms your buyers search — because they built the system and you didn't.
None of this is a marketing problem. It's an infrastructure problem. And it doesn't get fixed by hiring another marketing coordinator or redesigning the homepage.
Why Meyer Ventures
I've sat in your chair. That's the whole pitch.
Most agencies have never carried a number. They've never had to explain a missed quarter, never dealt with a channel conflict between a rep and a distributor, never watched a quote sit for four days because nobody owned the handoff.
I ran a 300-person, multi-site manufacturer as COO and took it from $12.5M to $75M. Before that I ran marketing for one of the largest automotive e-commerce companies in the country — multi-million-dollar budgets, a 30-person team, global product launches.
So when we talk, we're not going to talk about impressions. We're going to talk about quote-to-cash, cost per qualified opportunity, and what a 4% lift in close rate is worth against your gross margin.
Operator's Lens
16 years owning the numbers, the team, and the throughput — not just the campaign. I know what breaks when marketing hands something to sales, because I've owned both sides of that handoff.
Systems Over Tactics
We build infrastructure that compounds. Not a campaign that expires the day the retainer stops.
Selective Partnership
Fewer clients, deeper work. Every engagement starts with a paid diagnostic so we both know exactly what we're walking into before anyone commits to a build.
The Meyer Growth Engine
Four layers. One system.
01
Attention
Content and search infrastructure that puts you in front of buyers who are already specifying, comparing, and sourcing. Built for how industrial buyers actually research — not for going viral.
02
Conversion
Websites and funnels engineered to capture, qualify, and route. Every inquiry tracked from first touch to closed order.
03
Automation
AI workflows that kill the bottlenecks: lead qualification and routing, quote and RFQ acceleration, CRM hygiene, follow-up sequences that don't depend on someone remembering.
04
Measurement
Tracking and dashboards that tell you where revenue comes from — so next year's budget is a decision instead of a guess.

Fit Check
Who this is for.
Good Fit
Manufacturers, industrial, and building-products companies doing $10M–$100M
Owner-operated or PE-backed, with a decision-maker who can say yes in one meeting
A real product and real customers — you need distribution and infrastructure, not a turnaround
Willing to give a partner access to actual revenue data
Ready to spend $35K+ on a build and treat it as capex, not an experiment
Not a Fit
"We just need a website"
Under $10M in revenue
Pre-revenue or pre-product
Anyone who wants to go viral
Companies where three people have to agree before anything ships
The Process
It starts with a diagnostic. Always.
01
Teardown call — 30 minutes, free
I walk your site, funnel, and inquiry flow live and show you the three biggest leaks. You get value whether or not we work together.
02
Revenue Diagnostic — 3 weeks, $9,500
I map your entire revenue system from first touch to reorder, size every leak in dollars, and hand you a prioritized 12-month roadmap. You own it outright. The full fee is credited toward a build if you start within 60 days.
03
Build — 6 weeks to 6 months
We engineer and launch the system the diagnostic specified. Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed timeline.
04
Operating Partner — ongoing
I stay in the seat: continuous optimization, new automation, and monthly reporting to your leadership team.
Why a paid diagnostic instead of a free proposal?
Because a free proposal is a guess, and guesses get priced defensively. Three weeks inside your numbers means the build we quote is the build you actually need — and you keep the roadmap either way.
Investment
Real numbers, on the website, before you call.
Revenue Diagnostic
$9,500 · 3 weeks · credited toward your build
Foundation Build
$35,000 · 6–8 weeks
Growth Engine Build
$75,000 · 12–16 weeks
Enterprise Engine
$150,000+ · 6 months
Operating Partner
$8,000–$15,000/mo · 6-month minimum
Most engagements land between $45,000 and $120,000 in year one.
If those numbers don't fit, we're not a fit — and you just saved us both a call.
Straight Answers
Questions worth asking.
"How is this different from hiring an agency?"
An agency sells you deliverables and reports on activity. I build infrastructure and report on revenue. And I've run a manufacturer — most of the people pitching you haven't run anything.
"We already have a marketing person."
Good. They usually become the biggest beneficiary. I build the system; they run it with far better tooling than they have now. I'm not here to replace a coordinator — I'm here to give them something worth coordinating.
"Our buyers don't buy online."
They don't buy online. They decide online, then call your rep. The research, the shortlist, and the spec all happen before anyone picks up a phone. That's the part that's currently invisible to you.
"What does month one actually look like?"
Week 1, I'm in your data and interviewing your sales team. Week 2, I'm mapping and sizing every leak. Week 3, you get the roadmap and we spend 90 minutes walking your leadership through it. Nothing is vague and nothing waits on a creative review.
"What if we don't want to continue after the diagnostic?"
Then you keep the roadmap and we shake hands. It's your document, whether I build it or your team does.
If your revenue depends on five reps and a phone, let's talk.
I take on a small number of builds at a time because I'm in every one of them personally.
