Manufacturing, Relationships, and Branding w/ Lisa Kilwin

What happens when your company does incredible work… but you can’t show half of it? On this episode of He Said, She Said: Razor Branding™ Podcast , we talk with Lisa Kilwin of Midwest Machining Solutions , a full-service machining and fabrication shop she and her husband built from auction equipment… in a two-car garage… nearly 25 years ago. Lisa shares what it’s really like to grow a custom shop (not production) where every job is different, confidentiality is real, and relationships have literally kept the business afloat. We also dig into the marketing reality most manufacturing leaders live every day: limited time, limited resources, too many options, and a whole lot of “I don’t know what I should even ask for.” If you’ve ever felt like marketing is moving faster than you can catch the train—Lisa will make you feel seen… and give you a smarter path forward.
