How PlantMiner's new business development team has helped local suppliers win over $37mil worth of work
If I followed you around work for a day, what would I observe? How much of your day are you able to spend on finding more customers, better contracts or moving towards achieving your business goals? To keep your employees busy, you need more than industry knowledge, but strong business development skills to get in front of prospective clients who remember your company when it’s time to request a bid for upcoming projects. For many hire and subcontractor companies, it's increasingly difficult to find the time and resources needed each week to work on effective business development.
This year, we've expanded our Business Development team to include a dedicated on the ground team where each member visits upwards of 100+ job-sites each week across Australia. They move from site to site building personal relationships and digging up new leads for businesses just like yours.
How to utilise our Business Development team as an extension of yours
Our site teams have extensive experience in numerous markets including engineering, construction, mining, government, and operate on a regional, state, and national level to target projects on your behalf.
Have your eye on an upcoming project? Or have a piece of gear collecting dust? The first step you need to take is to establish and nurture relationships with decision markers on projects and in procurement.
If you're an equipment supplier or subcontractor, partnering with PlantMiner means you can tap into an established and growing network of project managers, estimators and site foreman to grow your contact base, and receive comprehensive project information so that you can quote effectively.
This team has help secured over $37 million of work for our listed suppliers. You can read about some of their successes here:
