Generate demand for higher-value work.

A larger project is won on trust and proof, not on being the cheapest quote. The work is to build authority for the higher-value job, bring in better-qualified enquiries, and follow up fast enough to win them.

The market

Competing on price is a race to the smallest job.

Construction and trades marketing tends to pull in whoever is cheapest and quickest to ask, which fills the diary with small, price-led work and quotes that never convert. The higher-value project is decided differently: the client wants evidence the work will be done well, and they reward the business that answers quickly and looks credible. The constraint is qualification and speed, not raw enquiry count.

How it is run

Won on qualification and speed, both measured.

Quote enquiries and the speed they are answered at are instrumented together, the constraint is diagnosed from the pair rather than from enquiry volume alone, and one change is made against it. It is the method set out on The Practice, pointed at the higher-value job rather than the fastest one.
