Using the Web to Market Your Waterjet

For this blog post we get into the subject of marketing your waterjet online. I’ve asked our in-house expert and global marketing communications manager Jessica Harding to give us some quick tips. Take it away, Jessica.

You might be good at making stuff with your waterjet, but not as confident at marketing your waterjet capabilities.

Yet, when you really dig in and move past the natural mystique of what goes on in the secret algorithms within, you’ll find that if you consistently follow some simple best practices your business’s awareness will rise. Yes, it’s true, we could go on and on about how to refine your internet presence, but for today, we are going to merely touch on some powerful basics. For this post I am going to assume you already have a website up and running. If you don’t, I suggest you start there. There are numerous services available to help you build a site from scratch. No code experience necessary.
