Background

Two Years of Wanting Social Media, No Time to Start

The company develops and sells roll-forming machines used in construction, automotive, machinery manufacturing and other industries.

It’s a classic “one-person company”: the owner handles production, sales, negotiations and operations alone. As early as 2023, the owner wanted to use social media to open overseas markets, but with limited time and no operating experience, a steady lead channel never took shape.
