Constantly engaging with the customers is extremely important for the company’s growth and brand reputation.
With innumerable channels to stay connected, it is up to the organisation to choose the best one and keep it live and ticking.
Clear and transparent communication makes the functioning simpler.
What is communication strategy?
While exchange of information between the sender and receiver is communication, the effectiveness is the focus, now.

Now, there are a whole lot of options for communication. Devising a plan to share the information effectively is communication strategy.
We, at Propel Industries, have a tried and tested communication strategy in place and our employees are completely committed to the strategy. We understand the importance of a great communication strategy without which it would be difficult to compete in the market.
We focus on all three types of strategy - visual, verbal and non-verbal.

- During the discussion with the customer, we look out for land options where the crusher plant can be erected.
- We get a verbal confirmation about the pollution certificate.

This stage involves individual meetings, phone calls and email exchanges.
