A manufacturers' rep
& marketing company.

/ Partner in success

Our team blends technical rep engineers, account managers, and an in-house marketing crew under one roof. We're not a directory of independent reps — we're a coordinated rep & marketing agency that treats every principal like our flagship line.

Engineers on the floor.

Keith Brown — Owner & President

Keith Brown

Owner & President

Territory: OH · WV · Western PA

Keith leads FactoryLink with a simple bet: technical lines deserve reps who know the application as well as the customer does. Nearly four decades later, that bet still drives every territory, every demo, every campaign.

/ How we work

The Midwest's premier manufacturers' rep & marketing company.

01

Technical first

Every rep can hold their own on the floor — applications, materials, machines.

02

Long horizon

We measure success in territory growth over years, not orders this quarter.

03

No overlap

Principals never compete inside our bag. Focus is the product.

04

Show up

Demos on the floor. Trials on real parts. Data left on the table.

05

In-house marketing

Design, video, email, social — built under our roof for principal campaigns.

06

Midwest grit

Six states. One team. Plymouth, Michigan since 1987.

"
FactoryLink is among the most strategic and tactical rep & marketing organizations I have ever worked with. They have set the bar for what a tech-rep agency can be. If you are looking for the whole package and not just the order-takers — work with the FactoryLink team.
