The problem
Your construction pipeline depends on events and relationships that cannot scale
You spend $30K-$80K per year on industry events and sponsorships for intermittent networking opportunities. Between events, your business development goes quiet.
Your top business developer retired last year and took half your relationships with them. Your pipeline dropped 40% because your firm's brand is tied to individual people, not digital presence.
A competing GC runs LinkedIn video ads showing project timelapses to developers in your metro area every week. When a new project goes out for pre-qualification, they are already top-of-mind.
The solution
Video ads that put your construction portfolio in front of decision-makers year-round
We produce video ads showcasing your completed projects, safety record, and capabilities — formatted for LinkedIn, YouTube pre-roll, and targeted industry placements.
Every ad targets project owners, real estate developers, GCs, and construction managers in your geographic markets and project type specialties. No impressions wasted on irrelevant audiences.
Bi-weekly creative refresh based on engagement data. We test different project showcases, capability highlights, and safety messaging to find what drives the most pre-qualification invitations.
The construction & infrastructure context
Built for how construction companies actually buy
Project owner, general contractor, real estate developer, or government procurement officer evaluating contractors for $500K-$50M+ projects. Risk-averse, safety-conscious, and credential-driven. Reviews project portfolios, safety records, and bonding capacity before pre-qualifying a contractor. Values demonstrated experience on similar project types.
What construction & infrastructure companies are up against
- Traditionally offline industry going digital — competitors with better online presence are winning bids from new clients
- Relationship-based sales means pipeline collapses when key business developers leave or retire
- Workforce recruitment is a constant challenge as skilled tradespeople are harder to find than ever
- Project portfolio showcasing is limited to PDF proposals that fail to convey the scale and quality of completed work
Where video moves the needle
- Project portfolio and timelapse showcase videos
- Safety culture and training demonstration videos
- Heavy equipment and capability showcase
- Workforce recruitment and culture videos
- Pre-qualification and bid support presentation videos

LinkedIn video ads, YouTube pre-roll, 9:16 for mobile feeds, and display formats. Native to each platform and optimised for construction decision-makers.
Why this matters
Why construction companies need video ad creatives
Construction business development has been relationship-first for decades. But the industry is shifting. Project owners and developers increasingly research contractors online before networking events.
They Google firms, check LinkedIn, and watch project videos. Video ads accelerate this shift in your favour. LinkedIn targeting for construction is remarkably precise: real estate developers in specific metros, project owners in healthcare or education, GCs looking for specialty subcontractors.
Combined with video showing your actual completed projects, the result is year-round brand awareness with the exact people who award contracts. This does not replace relationship-based BD — it amplifies it. When an owner hears your name at an event, they have already seen 5 project videos.
The relationship starts warmer.
Is this right for your construction & infrastructure company?
We want to be upfront about who we work best with.
Right for you if:
- Construction company wanting to supplement relationship-based BD with always-on digital awareness
- Your completed project portfolio is visually impressive and showcases your firm's capabilities
- You want to reach project owners in specific geographies and project types year-round
- Your pipeline is too dependent on individual business developers' personal networks
Probably not the right fit if:
- You are not ready to invest in digital advertising alongside traditional business development
- Your projects are all confidential and cannot be shown in advertisements
- You only compete for public works bids where pre-qualification is purely credential-based
- Your monthly ad budget is under $3K — the geographic targeting precision may not justify the spend
