Digital agency for manufacturers
Make your systems work as hard as your people.
You need a website that helps buyers understand what you do, an ecommerce platform that makes purchasing easier and marketing that reaches the right people. Behind the scenes, you need systems that share information rather than creating more work for your team.
Teapot brings brand, design, development and marketing around the same table, with the technical expertise to connect the systems that power your business. So what customers see works brilliantly, and what happens behind it works just as hard.
When growth exposes the gaps
As manufacturing businesses evolve, the digital setup around them does not always keep pace. What once worked can become a source of friction for customers, sales teams and the people keeping everything moving behind the scenes.
Customers, distributors and trade buyers struggle to find the right information, configure products or take the next step.
The right buyers are not finding you
Limited visibility across search, AI platforms and paid media makes it harder to reach people actively looking for what you offer.
Your website undersells the business
Your capabilities have moved on, but your website no longer reflects the quality, expertise or scale of what you deliver.
More orders and enquiries create more administration because the technology underneath the business cannot scale with demand.
Your systems do not talk to each other
Orders, stock, pricing and customer information sit in different places, leaving your team to fill the gaps.
Manual processes take up valuable time
Re-keying information, checking spreadsheets and correcting avoidable errors pull people away from more important work.
Connect the systems behind your growth
Your website or ecommerce platform is only one part of the picture. Orders, stock, pricing, production, fulfilment and customer information may all depend on other systems working properly behind the scenes.
Connected Commerce brings those systems together. We connect ecommerce platforms, customer portals, ERPs, warehouse systems, finance software and other business-critical technology, allowing information to move reliably across your operation.
The result is less manual administration, fewer errors and a clearer view of what is happening across the business. Your customers get a smoother experience, while your team gets technology that supports growth rather than making it harder.
Multiple challenges. One unified approach.
The best results rarely come from treating brand, technology and marketing as separate jobs. We bring the right expertise together around what your business needs to achieve.
Web design and development
Turn complex products, services and capabilities into clear digital experiences that build confidence and make it easier for customers to take the next step.
Ecommerce and connected systems
Create dependable ecommerce platforms, customer portals and bespoke software that fit the way your business works. From custom connectors and system integrations to specialist functionality, we build the technology needed to simplify purchasing and reduce friction across your operation.
SEO and AI visibility
Help the right buyers discover and understand your business across traditional search results and the AI tools influencing research and supplier selection.
PPC and paid social
Reach specific audiences, generate demand and support product launches or commercial priorities with focused, measurable campaigns.
"We felt a true two-way flow of communication throughout the process and ended up with a design that we are proud of and is now flying off the shelves."

FAQs
What services do you provide for manufacturers?
We provide brand and web design, website development, ecommerce, bespoke software, system integrations, SEO and AI search optimisation, marketing strategy, PPC and paid social. We bring these services together around the commercial and operational needs of your business.
Can you connect our website or ecommerce platform to our existing systems?
We can connect ecommerce platforms and customer portals with ERPs, warehouse systems, finance software, CRMs and other business-critical technology. We begin by understanding how information currently moves through the business and where an integration could remove friction.
Can you build bespoke software or custom connectors?
Yes. When an off-the-shelf integration or application cannot meet the requirement, our development team can create bespoke connectors, portals and software functionality around the way your business operates.
Which website and ecommerce platforms do you work with?
We work with platforms including WordPress, WooCommerce, Shopify and PrestaShop, as well as bespoke systems. We recommend the most appropriate technology based on your products, processes, existing systems and plans for growth.
Can you build trade-ready B2B websites as well as B2C and D2C ecommerce sites?
Yes. We build ecommerce websites for B2B, B2C and D2C businesses, including platforms that support trade accounts, customer-specific pricing, bulk ordering, restricted products, credit terms and different purchasing journeys. Where required, we can connect the website with your ERP, stock, finance and fulfilment systems.
Can you work with our existing website, systems or internal team?
A project does not always require replacing everything. We can improve an existing platform, solve a specific integration problem or work alongside your internal team and other technology providers.
How long does a manufacturing website or integration project take?
Timescales depend on the scope, content, technical requirements and number of systems involved. We will define the work and provide a realistic delivery plan before development begins, including any discovery or integration testing required.
Can you support the website and integrations after launch?
Yes, we can provide ongoing hosting, support and development to keep websites, ecommerce platforms and integrations secure, dependable and ready to support future growth.
Can you also help us reach more customers?
Our marketing team provides SEO, AI visibility, PPC and social media services help manufacturers reach buyers during research, comparison and purchasing. Because our marketing and development expertise work together, we can also address website or technical issues that may be limiting performance.
