Vendée welcomes a new broker from Activ travaux

From Bignon to Jard-sur-Mer, a serious boost for individuals and artisans

An electrician for over 15 years, Gérald Paqui has just founded his own construction brokerage company in La Copechagnière, Vendée. At 38, he joined the Activ Travaux network (80 brokers in France), strengthening the regional reach of this Nantes-based company.
As the third Activ Travaux broker established in Vendée, Gérald Paqui's territory is vast. From Bignon (south of Loire-Atlantique) to Jard-sur-Mer (in Vendée), this housing professional provides a significant boost to individuals and tradespeople.

Born in Vendée, Gérald Paqui knows his region well. Coming from a construction background, he's a master of his craft. "I'm truly in my element. Since I've been doing this job, I don't feel like I'm working because I enjoy it so much."
In just two months, he's already landed his first deals: installing solar panels, renovating roofs, installing a heat pump... In the region, residents seem very keen on renewable energy.

The best housing professionals
Given his background, Gérald Paqui quickly built his network of partners. He knew who he wanted to work with. Today, he is surrounded by top professionals in the main trades. In high demand, he receives an average of two to three calls per week from entrepreneurs eager to work with him.
From construction to development work, Gérald Paqui manages each project from A to Z. Very vigilant about the quality of execution and the responsiveness of craftsmen, Gérald Paqui selects his future partners based on professional criteria. He favors artisanal structures (on average, 5 workers). All are well-established and provide the guarantees essential to the practice of their profession (professional insurance in particular). Gérald Paqui also relies on the technical skills of project managers and architects.

Support in carrying out the work
As a project facilitator, Gérald Paqui is a solution provider. "It's difficult to find the right tradespeople. The first service I provide to my clients is to introduce them to the professionals who will bring their projects to fruition, in the highest quality possible," explains our broker.
As his clients' sole interface, Gérald Paqui offers a turnkey service. His service is free and without obligation, as it is entirely managed by construction professionals. From project qualification to quote signing, this hands-on man defends his clients' interests. He even provides commercial follow-up. At the end of the project, a satisfaction survey allows him to confirm the reliability of the recommended tradespeople and the quality of their work.

Solutions on a platter
Gérald Paqui devotes a great deal of time to qualifying each project. This essential step not only allows him to provide craftsmen with precise specifications for the work to be completed, but also to refine the design of the decorative elements with his clients. Materials, colors, textures, furniture... he presents them with samples before directing them to showrooms where they can make their choice in complete peace of mind.

For craftspeople, the benefits are just as tangible. Professionals unanimously see only advantages. No sales prospecting, qualified projects, clients truly motivated to carry out their work, simplified customer relations... in short, business brought to the table for those who can deliver in terms of quality, deadlines, and price. Gérald Paqui isn't here to break the market, but to guarantee his clients quality work at a fair price.

Aware of the value of this commercial support, tradespeople readily agree to pay a portion of their profit to this business provider. Especially since the commercial relationship offered by Activ Travaux is completely transparent: there are no entry fees or membership fees, but remuneration based on the volume of business actually provided.
For example, out of eight cases presented to an electrician-plumber, four have already been finalized.
