Our take
TREW Marketing is the strongest fit in our first group of robotics marketing agencies, and it ranks first. It has marketed to engineers since 20081, it prints its prices on its website2,3, and it can point to named robotics clients with numbers attached4,5.
The trade-off is size. TREW is a small, founder-led firm, so buyers who need large paid media budgets, global PR teams, or many markets at once may find a larger agency such as Walker Sands a better match.
Scores by criterion
Pricing transparency (8.6): retainer ranges, project ranges, and three fixed-price packages are all on the website2,3.
Robotics and B2B tech expertise (8.5): an engineering-only client base since 2008, a systems integrator program, and robotics clients such as Path Robotics and Gray Solutions1,6,4,5.
Client results evidence (7.6): named robotics case studies with media numbers, but few published revenue or pipeline figures4,5.
Company durability (7.0): 18 years in business, 70% yearly client retention, and a four-year average client tenure, offset by a small team1.
Service breadth (8.0): strategy, brand, content, marketing automation, sales enablement, websites, and PR7,4.
Each criterion is defined in how we score marketing agencies.
Who uses TREW and what it's for
TREW works with engineering and technical companies, and says it has worked with more than 100 engineering clients7. Its menu covers manufacturing and automation systems, and it runs a dedicated program for systems integrators7,6.
Typical buyers are marketing leaders at robot makers, automation integrators, and industrial technology firms who need technical content written by people who understand the product. TREW says clients usually start with a 6 or 12-month retainer and stay about four years1.
Services and pricing
TREW publishes three pricing bands. Execution retainers run $10,000 to $16,000 a month, strategy projects $10,000 to $30,000 each, and agency of record retainers $12,000 to $25,000 a month2.
It also sells fixed-price quick wins: 10 customer interviews with a report for $5,500, a content, website, HubSpot, or competitive audit for $12,000, and a mini-campaign plan with content and a playbook for $20,0003. Few agencies in this group publish prices this clearly.
Robotics and automation work
For Path Robotics, the AI welding robot maker, TREW ran an integrated PR campaign around the Automate trade show. It expanded media outreach from 5 to 32 outlets, and the campaign produced 7 media pickups and 5 pre-show or at-show interviews against targets of 4 to 6 and 1 to 24.
For Gray Solutions, a robotics and automation systems integrator now part of Gray AES, TREW built content for a full rebrand in under a year and connected HubSpot to the existing CRM5.
Company size and durability
TREW reports a 70% yearly client retention rate, an average client tenure of four years, an average staff tenure of 7.5 years, and a Net Promoter Score of 9.21. Its team averages more than 15 years of technical marketing experience7.
TREW does not publish revenue or headcount. Third-party company listings put its team at between 22 and 50 people9. Robotics Reviewed estimates yearly revenue of roughly $4 million to $8 million, based on that headcount range and the retainer prices TREW publishes. This is an estimate, not a reported figure.

Limits
TREW is small. A team of a few dozen people limits how many markets, languages, and channels it can run at the same time.
Paid media is not a headline service on its menu, which centers on strategy, content, HubSpot, and websites7.
Most published results are activity measures such as outlets, pickups, and interviews rather than pipeline or revenue4.
What customers say
Where it helps
We were impressed by TREW's deep understanding of both industrial automation and the specific challenges faced by our industry. Their expertise was invaluable during the content development process, as they were able to translate complex technical concepts into clear, engaging content that's on brand and resonates with our target audience.
We brought a compelling story, and TREW Marketing helped us make sure our audience heard it when it mattered.
Where it falls short
We found no published complaints. The gaps buyers are likeliest to notice are scale and paid media depth, since TREW is a small team whose menu centers on content, HubSpot, and websites7.
Where customer reviews couldn't be found, our analysts attempted to give a voice to buyer sentiment, drawing on real information from review sites, forums and product documentation. Based on: TREW Marketing case studies and service pages, accessed November 1, 2026.
