We exist to help metal fabricators, contractors, and shops thrive in a market that's moved online — whether or not they have.
WHY WE EXIST
Without metal manufacturing, progress stops.
Metal manufacturers sit at the core of the economy. Metal powers the essentials — construction, agriculture, architecture, art, and most of the innovations that quietly improve how people live.
And yet metal shops routinely face stagnant growth, inconsistent pipelines, and opportunities nobody ever followed up on. Not because the work isn't good. Because the system around the work was never built.
That's the part we handle. The technology, the automation, and the strategy a shop needs to stop losing jobs it already earned.
THE PROBLEM
Most agencies market a dentist on Monday and a fab shop on Tuesday.
One day they're running ads for a restaurant, the next for a fabrication business. They don't know your equipment, your sales cycle, or the difference between structural steel and ornamental iron.
So they generate volume instead of quality. You end up estimating jobs that were never going to close, or competing purely on price against shops you shouldn't be compared to.
Specialists outperform generalists. That's the entire premise this company is built on.
OUR STORY
Built by someone who's been on the floor.
MetalWorks SEO came out of firsthand experience in manufacturing. Founder Jeff Barison spent years around shop floors before building and growing businesses on the marketing and operations side — and the gap between those two worlds is exactly where this company sits.
I spent 20 years at metalworks. I watched us lose a $10000 job because nobody picked up the phone on a Friday afternoon — and then watched the same thing happen the following month. The work was never the problem. The system around the work was.
Every shop I've walked into since has had the same leak. That's what MetalWorks exists to close.
HOW WE WORK
Small on purpose.
You won't be handed to an account manager while a junior writes your content. You work with the people actually building your system.
Laser-focused expertise
We speak your language. We know how to position you to win commercial contracts and premium residential work — because it's the only thing we do.
Systems, not campaigns
We don't just generate leads. We build the machinery that answers, qualifies, and books them while you're on the floor.
One shop per market
We cap how many shops we take on in any local market. You're not competing with another client for the same job.
WHAT WE HOLD TO
Craftsmanship in our code and campaigns
Education before selling
Long-term partnerships over quick wins
Radical transparency in reporting
Measurable business outcomes over vanity metrics
Continuous innovation in automation
WHO WE SERVE
Companies that design, fabricate, and install metal.
If you make it out of steel, iron, or aluminium and someone pays you to install it, you're who we built this for.
