Sell the Story, Win the Deal: Marketing 101 for Automation Providers

Every automation company claims to be different. Few can prove it in 10 seconds. In this episode, Daniel Castro Maia, Forest Lee, and Mandy Dwight break down how to stand out in a crowded robotics market through clear storytelling, purposeful design, and adaptive strategy.

This episode breaks down brand as a system and shows how storytelling turns complex specs into real outcomes. The discussion covers how design guides decisions, how value should appear in your website and UX, and how messaging changes by audience. End users want proof of throughput and integration, while investors look for momentum.

The team then gets tactical with a real multi-channel approach for automation. They explain why LinkedIn alone is not a strategy and how paid search, trade show geo-targeting, retargeting, and education-first content build trust. They highlight the need for agility, A/B testing, and budgeting based on real signals. They also touch on the limits of part-time marketing and the value of outside partners when internal teams are stretched.

If you build something great and tell a true story about how it changes work, demand rises and sales cycles shorten. This episode shows you how to cut the noise and drive meaningful growth.
