The Challenge

This engineering staffing firm specializes in placing mechanical, electrical, and process engineers at manufacturing and construction companies. The market is traditional—most business comes from referrals and trade shows.

They wanted to grow faster but couldn't afford to wait for referrals. Their target buyers—VPs of Operations, Plant Managers, and Engineering Directors—don't respond to typical staffing outreach.

  • Traditional industry—slow growth via referrals and trade shows
  • Target buyers skeptical of staffing firm outreach
  • Specialized talent requires understanding of technical requirements
  • Need to demonstrate industry expertise in first touch

The Solution

They deployed 7 AI agents targeting industrial companies with specific engineering needs:

VP Operations
Manufacturing plants, 200+ employees
Plant Managers
Automotive and aerospace suppliers
Engineering Directors
Companies with capital projects
Project Managers
Construction and infrastructure firms

Messaging focused on specific engineering challenges: automation implementation, lean manufacturing initiatives, facility expansions, and compliance requirements. Each message demonstrated deep industry knowledge.
