The idea that helps Manufacturing engineers

Manufacturing engineers want to reduce downtime and maintenance costs. However, they can't get it because they struggle with predictive maintenance.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. PredictiveMx.

Predictive Maintenance Software for Manufacturing : PredictiveMx is an innovative software solution that uses predictive analytics and machine learning to help manufacturing engineers anticipate equipment failures, reduce downtime, and optimize maintenance schedules. Of course it is much better than the stuff from MaintenancePro, or PredictiveTech!

How to find Manufacturing engineers

You can get insights about the pain points of manufacturing engineers if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

Find out where manufacturing engineers hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of manufacturing engineers, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: Predictive Maintenance Software for Manufacturing.

I described the process here in my blog post: Identify a hungry audience.
