Email Marketing

Build stronger relationships. Drive sales.

In the construction and building product industries, relationships matter. Email marketing is one of the most cost-effective ways to nurture those relationships, build trust, and drive repeat business — all while keeping your brand top of mind with distributors, contractors, architects, and decision-makers.

At Smart Marketing Works, we craft targeted email marketing strategies designed specifically for the unique needs of building product manufacturers, suppliers, and construction firms. Whether you’re launching new products, promoting project case studies, or staying in front of your dealer network, our email campaigns are designed to deliver real results.

Why email marketing matters in construction & building products

Your customers are busy — architects, builders, and contractors don’t have time to scroll through endless social feeds or sift through Google search results. But they do check their email.

Email marketing gives you a direct line to your audience, helping you:

  • Keep your brand top of mind throughout long sales cycles

  • Share technical resources, installation guides, and spec sheets

  • Announce new products or updates to your dealer network

  • Highlight successful projects and customer testimonials

  • Drive traffic to your website and nurture leads

The result? Better engagement, stronger relationships, and increased sales.

Who we work with

Don’t take our word for it, hear what our clients have to say

We are working to develop a library of CPDs, including digitised versions. The team have been easy to work with and have grasped the technical features of our products before creating engaging CPD content that will be of great use to us.

Accsys

We have enjoyed working with the team, who professionally utilised the content we provided, resulting in a slick and dynamic learning seminar which has been well received by forward thinking specifiers. The digitised version of the presentation has been particularly popular in line with modern day work nature.

The support provided to us by Smart Marketing Works has been crucial in developing our brand. In large part this is enabled by the skills that the company has in-house and also the wide experience that team members have in our industry.
