Many manufacturers are looking to get into the e-commerce game and to do so, they can go about it one of two ways:

• Do the work themselves while hoping to figure it out as they go along and stare at a huge learning curve.
• Hire a marketing firm to do the work for them.

The issue with hiring a marketing firm is ensuring they understand your product, business model, and selling process. Read about one manufacturer’s experience when they sought to gain visibility using a marketing firm. So how should manufacturing companies venture into the e-commerce world?
