My role is not just about bringing in new painting work for Bagnalls, it's about assessing which area of the market to target at any one time. Bagnalls is a company capable of working in every area, be it heavy industrial sites or idyllic historical buildings, schools and universities or office blocks, I need to focus my customer development in the right area for Bagnalls' Wolverhampton branch at the right time. We are selective with whom we work for because we believe in the importance of fairness and relationship, preferring to work alongside people who share those values.
To find those customers and prove to them that Bagnalls really is the company they should look to for reliable, professional, customer focused painting services, whatever their needs.
