Case study

How do you create brand preference among tradespeople?

Sharing knowledge, building skills and showcasing know-how

A technical subject that often gets sidelined

For plumbers and heating engineers, water treatment is a topic often relegated to the back burner. Too technical? Not profitable enough? Not visible enough? And yet it is a key subject: for the durability of installations, customer satisfaction and the energy performance of homes.

At BWT, the European leader, one conviction stands out: water treatment is a real opportunity for on-site pros. They just need to be given the means to seize it!

The challenges: build skills, demystify, inspire

  • Put water treatment back on installers' agenda.

  • Equip the pros so they can better inform, advise and sell.

  • Build loyalty among plumbers by offering useful, simple and inspiring content.

Our response: 
the BWT PRO MAG, the 100% useful blog for installers

An e-magazine dedicated to professionals

To bring this ambition to life, together with BWT we designed and developed a medium unique on the market: the BWT PRO MAG, the water treatment blog dedicated to plumbing and heating installers. 

A tool designed by and for on-site pros, with a clear editorial line: friendly, accessible, never preachy. We talk regulations, worksites, sales tips... but always with the tone and examples of the field. 

It is a brand media with strong added value, designed to build connection and competence.

Useful, varied, actionable content

  • In-depth articles on water treatment solutions, their uses and their benefits
  • Expert insights into regulations and market challenges
  • Interviews with pros, worksite feedback, customer case studies
  • Sales tips and pitch techniques
  • Downloadable practical fact sheets: checklists, infographics, guides
  • Video web series with a relaxed tone, close to on-site realities
  • Social media content to ensure effective distribution right where the pros are

RESULTS

Content that builds skills... and trust

The BWT PRO MAG enables the brand to build a direct, lasting and constructive relationship with installers.

  • It repositions water treatment as a matter of skill and differentiation.
  • It gives the pros practical keys to grow their business, build customer loyalty and showcase their expertise.
  • It strengthens BWT's legitimacy as an expert brand that is useful and close to the field.

With the BWT PRO MAG, the brand isn't just selling water softeners: it is helping tradespeople become ambassadors for water quality. And that changes everything.

Beyond the support we receive throughout a project, what is particularly valuable when working with Convergence is the upstream phase: they take the time to analyse the environment and the target audiences, and to take a step back. That is very important for our strategic projects!
