Marketing for construction machinery

Marketing for construction machinery starts with the product.

Launching a new machine, looking for content from real-world applications or trying to make more of social media? We get to grips with the product and build the right communication around the job — from campaigns and video to social media and paid social.

INDUSTRY UNDERSTANDING

Marketing construction machinery requires an understanding of the technology.

With construction machinery, the important differences are often in the detail. Those differences need to be clear in the communication.

We prepare for the product and its application in advance and clarify open technical questions with the right people before production — whether that is product management, sales or application specialists. That means the relevant topics are clear before the cameras start rolling.

Before the video shoot begins, the product, the plan and any open questions have been clarified. On the day, the focus is on production.

Typical briefs

What are you working on right now?

We start with the job, not with a predefined package.

01

Launching a new machine

Plan the launch, product video, social content or campaign around the actual objective.

02

Supporting a trade show or product focus

Use content deliberately before, during and after the event.

03

Creating content from real-world applications

Follow machinery at customer sites and turn it into video, photography and social content.

04

Keeping social media active

Plan, produce and publish content, with paid social where it adds value.

Projects

Three briefs. Three different approaches.

Construction machinery projects can require very different types of communication.

ZEPPELIN · PRODUCT LAUNCH

Introducing three new telehandlers clearly.

For the launch of three new telehandlers, we developed different video formats for social media, YouTube, the website and trade shows.

SENNEBOGEN · Product & operator

Introducing the new 728 E in real-world use.

For the launch of the SENNEBOGEN 728 E, we developed an on-camera format together with SENNEBOGEN and an experienced operator. Technical features were explained in conversation and demonstrated directly on the working machine.

Before we communicate the product, we want to understand it.

You know your machine. We get far enough into the product to communicate what makes it different.

Anything we do not know, we clarify directly with the right people. From there, we decide which formats and channels make sense for the job.

  1. Understand the product
  2. Define the job
  3. Plan the formats
  4. Produce
  5. Distribute

The job determines the measures.

Not every product launch, shoot or trade show requires the same mix of services.

Campaigns & concept development

Align objectives, messages, formats and channels.

Social media & paid social

Plan, produce and publish content, then distribute it where paid support adds value.

Photography

Plan product and application photography alongside the production.

Real-world applications

The differences between machines become clear in operation.

Many product advantages only become clear when the machine is working. That is why we produce directly with customers, on site and in real-world applications.

The goal is not simply the most dramatic shot, but one that makes the product benefit easier to understand.

Before the shoot, we decide what the material needs to do afterwards.

When the machine, operator and production crew are all together, we plan ahead for the content that will actually be needed.

Depending on the job, one production can provide a product video, social clips, photography or material for trade shows and paid social.

We step in where your team needs support.

Sometimes the job is a single shoot. Sometimes it is a product launch or ongoing content.

We take on the parts where your team needs additional time, capacity or production support. If several markets are involved, language versions and formats can be planned from the start.

Questions that often come up before a project.

  • 01Can we hire on:LAND for a single video shoot?

    Yes. We take on individual productions as well as larger campaigns. It depends on where your team needs support.

  • Yes. We work directly with marketing, product management, sales teams and external partners, taking on the areas where additional support is needed.

  • We clarify the product, its application and the relevant differences directly with the right people — before the shoot and, where useful, on site.

  • Yes. If the intended use is clear early on, formats and language versions can be planned from the start.
