Marketing for engineers by an engineer
I’m Achinta Mitra, the chief content creator and owner of this blog. I’m also the Founder and President of Tiecas, Inc., a Houston-based industrial marketing and consulting company that has been in business since 1987. I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering and an MBA in Marketing. That’s why I call myself a marketing engineer.
Bottom line – I don’t learn industrial marketing at your expense because I know your engineering and technical customers well from my 30+ years of hands-on experience.
