Expansion potential
Our clients believe that increases in turnover could be achieved by: • Embarking upon an aggressive marketing campaign to promote name awareness • Further website development • Sourcing contracts outside of Dudley MBC. This would however require the employment of a full time sales representative. • Looking at other sector within the ‘refurb’ sector such as Kitchens, Bathrooms etc to provide a one stop shop approach. • Our client has recently informed us that they are due to secure another 3 year contact with an existing client due to start September/October time.
