Participate in Woodworking Manufacturing Month

Woodworking Manufacturing Month’s mission is to drive awareness of the industry as a source of innovative solutions for customers and a career destination for job seekers. Woodworking Manufacturing Month was created by WMMA and WMIA for the benefit of their members and the wood products industry at large. The campaign is developed and produced by IWF. Woodworking Manufacturing Month is being staged in October in conjunction with Manufacturing Day.

This October, highlight your company’s latest innovations in any way that makes sense for your business. You could hold an event, run a social media campaign, or do another kind of other promotional activity. Here are just a few possible ways to participate:

• Run a special promotion around a new product or service
• Invite customers or prospects on a factory tour, in-person or virtual
• Invite students from a local technical college or high school to visit your facility, promoting careers in manufacturing
• Post a series of short videos on social media with people from your business sharing how they innovate in their daily work
• Video a demonstration of one of your latest products and post it on your website and social channels
• Send customers and prospects a series of e-blasts about innovations from your company that will make their jobs easier

However you choose to participate, you’ll be part of the larger national advertising and promotional campaign produced by IWF to shine a bright spotlight on woodworking industry innovation.
