Background
Metec, a leader in engineering consultancy, recognised the need to broaden its revenue streams beyond traditional building-services design. Emerging regulations and client demand presented significant growth opportunities in:
- Operational Energy Modelling – leveraging digital twins and simulations to optimise building performance.
- BER Pathway – guiding clients through stringent Building Energy Rating requirements.
- Data Centre Consultancy – advising on high-intensity power, cooling strategies and sustainability metrics.
To capitalise on these opportunities, Metec partnered with Generate Leads to build a market-ready platform for each new service line and raise awareness among their ideal “bullseye” customers.
Challenges
- Unclear Service Proposition
Metec’s expertise was well established, but the precise value-adds and packaging of these three new offerings remained undefined. - Target Audience Definition
It was essential to identify exactly who would invest in advanced energy modelling, BER compliance management or data-centre optimisation - and to tailor each message accordingly. - Go-to-Market Readiness
Metec lacked dedicated digital touchpoints and educational collateral to nurture prospects through a technically driven sales cycle.
