Innovation & Growth
Does your strategy and roadmap provide direction into the future?
The difference between surviving and thriving is the prioritization of innovation and growth. Manufacturers must embrace these concepts to try new business models, enhance or create products and parts, and pursue new strategies.
NJMEP’s programs help manufacturers in the following key areas:
Branding and Licensing
Manufacturers can get more exposure for their products through licensing. The right licensing strategy can help you enhance brand awareness and increase sales.
Business Financing
Client Research and Lead Generation Services
All potential customers don’t convert into sales; this is why a constant stream of leads is required to set the foundation for sales growth.
Content Marketing
Compelling content is a key factor to Internet success. Our writers can help you more effectively communicate through multiple online marketing channels.
Contingency and Emergency Planning
If a disaster strikes, having a comprehensive plan can help you protect your workforce, minimize damage, and keep your operations moving forward
Corporate Mission
Your corporate mission statement is the foundation of your business. NJMEP can help you discover and communicate your mission to your customers and stakeholders.
Corporate Sales Training and Development
Nurturing leads along the sales cycle is no easy task. The sales process has changed, as customer needs and technology have evolved. Your sales team needs to be trained and prepared to navigate the new business climate.
Corporate Valuation & Optimization
Determining the correct value of your organization is critical in preparation of selling your business. Making strategic decisions about your organization can improve your value when it comes time for the sale.
Design & Development
Your website should serve as a digital salesperson. We help manufacturers launch websites that are modern and professional looking, optimized for mobile technology, and designed to produce a constant stream of qualified leads
Email Marketing

Strategic Planning
