If there are other trades on site, walk in and ask them who you should talk to.
They might help, they might not.

Or maybe prepare some sort of professional looking information packet and slide it under the door.

Re: Approaching New Retail Sites?


I got into retail jobs as a referal. When I wanted to do more retail jobs I found a web site Retail Construction. This site was great. It tells you the top retail construction companys nationwide. Many of the companys have a link for you to fill out a online app. telling them about your company and your coverage area. I did this and it was totaly free. It works, I receive about 3-4 calls a month from out of town contractors wanting me to bid on their project. If I taking on work I tell them yes and I either recieve blueprints in the mail ( 2-3 days ) or they will e-mail you prints. If I'm to busy I have told contractors I was not available and call me on the next one. Them have.

Your likely late on the sales process, the job is bid out long before the trades are on site. I would still go in and find out the bidding process that way you can catch the next one if you missed this one.
