For Engineering & Manufacturing Business Owners
Stop Growing on Referrals
You Can't Control.

managers of engineering and manufacturing firms a
documented, repeatable Business Development engine —
built with the same operational discipline they use on the shop
floor.

Pipeline.

No documented process — just hustle, memory, and relationships
You quote constantly but can't explain why you win or lose
You've hired salespeople and it never sticks — no process to plug into
Growth is happening but you can't repeat it on purpose

The Problem
You'd Never Run Your Shop Floor on Gut Feel.
Most engineering and manufacturing firms grow the same way — referrals, relationships, the right person following up at the right time. It works until it doesn't.
The moment you want to grow on purpose — the system breaks. Because there is no system. Business Development is an operational function. It can be documented, measured, and improved — the same way any process on your shop floor can be.
"We submitted 40 quotes last quarter. I have no idea why we won 11 and lost the rest."
"Our best person handles all the relationships in his head. If he left, the pipeline goes with him."
"We keep hiring Business Development people and it never sticks — there's no process for them to plug into."
WHY LISTEN TO MIKE?
HE RUNS THE SYSTEM HE TEACHES
Mike Hill is the Chief Growth Officer of Big Rocks Manufacturing Holdings. He is not a consultant who studied manufacturing from the outside. He has spent 20+ years inside engineering and manufacturing organizations — running plants, leading teams, and delivering results.
The Engineering Growth System is not a course built from theory. It is the exact Business Development framework Mike built and runs inside his own manufacturing portfolio today.
