They delve into the unique challenges and opportunities within construction marketing, emphasising the importance of strategic planning over mere tactical execution. Peter shares insights from his extensive experience in the industry, highlighting how marketing should be viewed as a revenue generator rather than a cost. He discusses the need for businesses to understand their marketing objectives and the significance of thorough market research and positioning. The episode also touches on the evolving perception of trades and the construction industry, advocating for a shift in how apprenticeships and careers in construction are viewed. With a focus on innovation and technology, Peter outlines the types of clients he typically works with and the value of having both internal marketing teams and external consultants to drive effective marketing strategies.
