Hot Shot Oven & Kiln

We’ve helped this industry disrupter rapidly expand its reach via paid search, social media, and email marketing, resulting in massive sales increases.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Hot Shot Oven & Kiln is disrupting the heat-treating oven industry with the world’s safest and first cool-to-touch heat treat oven. Their products are made in the USA, ready to ship, and tailored to several niche industries, including machining, knifemaking, glass art, and low-temp ceramics.

The market for heat-treating ovens is enormous and dominated by companies that have been in business for generations. Hot Shot Oven & Kiln is the young upstart on the block, working to grab market share with their innovative design.

While we don’t usually work with new companies, we had a previous relationship with the owner of Hot Shot and we could see that his team had designed a product that was superior to anything in the industry. It was a feat of engineering to create an oven that can get to 2000 degrees on the inside, but still remain safe to touch on the outside.

Like all new clients, we guided Hot Shot through our Marketing Discovery & Blueprint process. This process allows us to deeply understand the total addressable market, Hot Shot’s ideal customer profiles and assess all possible advertising channels so we can build a solid plan to break through this very established market.

THE OUTCOME

Within 4 short months, we were able to help Hot Shot Oven & Kiln establish paid search and social campaigns, ramp up their new marketing CRM, build out their social media channels, and create numerous sales and marketing resources, resulting in over six-figure in sales. At the current trajectory, sales should continue to double every 2-3 months.
