CONTEXT
To position the company as a leader in reused steel temporary structures
For several years now, Locapal has built up a solid reputation in the field of temporary structures thanks to the quality of its organisation: design and methods office + stock of materials + manufacturing workshop + works teams. However, the company has virtually no marketing or sales support.
Locapal wants to outsource 100% of its marketing in order to meet its ambitious growth targets, while maintaining a reasonable level of support, adapted to the size of an SME. Involvement, commitment, experience, a passion for the technical world and the ability to work as part of a team are all required to successfully meet this challenge.
