A strategy for communicating with specifiers [EVENT]

It is often the case that construction products are selected by more than just one influencer. For the product manufacturer, it is important to understand which specifiers are influencing product selection in their market, and the timing of their decisions, in order to effectively communicate with them - at the right time.

In this seminar, led by Chris Ashworth of Competitive Advantage, we will explore how to use insight to find your future construction customers and the communication channels available to engage with them in a changing market.
