ODM Tool & MFG
METICULOUS MARKETING FOR THE METAL STAMPER KNOWN FOR BIG PRESSES
Automotive Metal Stamping | Robotic Welding | Assembly
The Task at Hand
ODM Tool & Manufacturing has been solving production challenges since 1946. What started as a Chicago-area tool and die shop has evolved into a high-volume metal stamping and welding manufacturer serving automotive, appliance, agriculture, heavy truck, defense, and other demanding markets. With 1,200- and 1,500-ton presses, advanced automation, and decades of manufacturing experience, ODM had a strong story to tell.
Vive helped give that story a sharper edge. A new website brought ODM’s stamping, welding, automation, and value-added capabilities into clearer focus. From the production floor to the trade show floor, the brand was assembled around real equipment, real people, and real capability—then reinforced through social media and sharp-looking sales materials.

Website Development
Vive transformed ODM’s deep manufacturing expertise into an easily navigable website designed around how engineers and buyers evaluate suppliers.

Search Engine Optimization
Search visibility shouldn’t stop at “metal stamping.” ODM competes across a much wider technical landscape, from high-tonnage stamping and robotic welding to automation, tooling, and complex assemblies. Vive’s SEO strategy expands that footprint by connecting individual capabilities, industries, and technical topics to the searches engineers and sourcing teams are already making—giving ODM more ways to enter the conversation before a supplier list is ever finalized.

Social Media Management
Plenty is happening inside an operation like ODM, and Vive helped turn that activity into consistent LinkedIn content highlighting equipment, capabilities, automation, employees, company milestones, and the industries ODM serves. Bold, creative, and straightforward manufacturing messaging keeps the ODM brand visible while giving customers and prospects a better look at the expertise behind the parts.
Social Media
Photo & Video
Nothing makes a statement quite like a gigantic piece of machinery. Large presses, robotic welding cells, and decades of manufacturing experience are better seen than described. Vive captured ODM’s people, equipment, and production environment, creating an authentic library of photography and video that brings their operation to life across the website, social media, sales materials, and other manufacturing marketing channels.
