Our agency was approached by an affiliate network that represented one of the largest developers in Poland. Their goal was to reach new customers throughout the country - people looking for apartments and those interested in investing in real estate. It was crucial for the developer to obtain not only a sufficient number of clicks, but most importantly valuable leads that could translate into real interest in the offer and potential sales. The campaign included an ambitious goal of acquiring 25,000 clicks to generate the required conversion rate of 0.7%. The challenge required a precise and thoughtful approach to the entire process, so the team undertook the task with full commitment. Executing such an extensive campaign on a nationwide scale, while meeting the client's expectations, required us to have an in-depth understanding of the real estate market and tailor a strategy that would allow us to effectively reach a precisely defined audience.
Profile of the ideal customer
In order to effectively reach those most interested in the developer's offer, we began by creating a detailed profile of the ideal recipient. Based on an analysis of the real estate market and the characteristics of the products offered by our client, we defined a target group that best matched the goals of the campaign and could realistically translate into the generation of valuable leads.
Our key audiences were people between the ages of 25 and 45, who are most likely to be starting out in the real estate business or considering investing in an apartment. We mainly targeted residents of large and medium-sized cities, which are experiencing a steady increase in demand for new units, but we did not forget about suburban areas and more developed villages, where demand for real estate is also growing. We paid attention to economically active people with stable incomes who have an adequate budget or qualify for a mortgage. The financial profile of our potential customers took into account both those with higher incomes, looking for higher-standard housing, and those looking for starter homes at attractive prices.
The ideal recipients of the campaign are not only those planning to buy property for personal use, but also those interested in investment opportunities. We determined that many of the potential customers were those following the real estate market in search of profitable investments, especially in cities with dynamic infrastructure development. The profile also included an interest in additional financing options - including preferential mortgage terms, which are often an important consideration in the decision to purchase real estate.
Specifying the profile of the ideal audience allowed us not only to effectively select marketing content, but also to precisely choose the communication channels that most closely matched the preferences of this target group. As a result, we were able to accurately target the campaign to people with the highest purchasing potential, which greatly influenced the effectiveness of the entire project.
Strategy for marketing activities
In order to maximize the potential of the campaign and reach a wide range of people interested in buying a property, we developed an integrated marketing strategy, combining email marketing, display ads and SMS marketing. Each of these channels had a specific role, tailored to the stage of the purchase path and the characteristics of the audience, in order to achieve high effectiveness and the desired conversion rate.
E-mail marketing
The first step was to prepare personalized e-mails addressed to people potentially interested in the developer's offer. Each e-mail was designed to be visually appealing, with attention to detail and an intuitive layout of information. In the communications, we included the main assets of the apartments offered by the client, including their location, amenities and access to infrastructure. In addition, the e-mails included educational elements, such as guides to financing the purchase of real estate and advice on how to buy an apartment for the first time, which built trust and engagement with the recipients. Through this form of communication, we significantly increased awareness of the offer, and generated valuable clicks, which were the first step to establishing a relationship with a potential customer.
Display ads
Display ads played a key role in building recognition and generating interest in the housing offerings. These ads were displayed on sites visited by people meeting the profile of the ideal customer, which allowed us to precisely reach the audience on a large scale. We used attractive graphics and slogans emphasizing the unique advantages of the investment, including the location of the apartments in rapidly developing neighborhoods, the availability of green areas and the high standard of finish. Thanks to effective targeting, we were able to achieve a number of impressions of 1.2 million, which significantly increased the visibility of the campaign nationwide and attracted the attention of customers at various stages of their purchase decision.
SMS marketing
SMS marketing was the third pillar of our strategy, designed to keep people engaged who had expressed interest in the offer but had not yet decided to contact the developer. Each SMS message was concise and contained a clear call-to-action, such as "Check out available apartments in your location!" or "Don't miss out on an exceptional offer on new apartments!". SMS messaging worked well as an effective channel to remind people about the offer and encourage them to take the next steps. We were able to increase interaction and engagement with users who had already shown initial interest, contributing to the required number of leads.
An integrated strategy of marketing activities allowed us to precisely target audiences with high purchase potential and effectively use each communication channel to maximize the chances of generating valuable leads and meeting campaign goals.
Effects of the campaign
In just one month, we were able to meet all campaign objectives, achieving the required 25,000 clicks and exceeding the expected conversion rate. Thanks to precise targeting and an integrated strategy, instead of the planned 0.7%, we managed to achieve a conversion rate of 0.75%, which translated into an impressive 188 leads. Each lead represented a real opportunity to acquire a new customer, so we built a strong foundation for further cooperation. The client was particularly pleased with the quality of the leads and the smooth running of the campaign, which allowed him not only to reach new audiences, but also to strengthen the recognition of his real estate development brand on the national market.
In addition, thanks to the increased number of ad impressions and precise targeting, the campaign also brought significant benefits in the form of increased brand awareness. Recognition of the developer increased not only among the campaign's direct audience, but also among a wider group of people who may have encountered the brand's message at various stages of the purchase path. The campaign not only achieved the intended quantitative and qualitative goals, but also laid a solid foundation for future activities, which resulted in the client's announcement of continued cooperation.
Summary and future plans
The effective implementation of the campaign and the achievement of all qualitative and quantitative objectives allowed our client not only to reach a new group of potential buyers, but also to increase the recognition of its brand in the real estate market. Exceeding the expected conversion rate and delivering high-quality leads convinced the client of the effectiveness of our strategy and professional approach to project implementation. As a result, our cooperation has gained a solid foundation for further development, and the client has expressed his satisfaction, announcing his desire to continue working on future projects.
Planned future activities include an even more integrated approach and the use of additional marketing channels that can increase the reach and effectiveness of campaigns. We are also analyzing the possibility of implementing more advanced targeting methods, such as dynamic personalized ads and social media remarketing, to reach the target audience even more accurately and increase conversion rates. Future campaigns could also take into account the seasonality of the real estate market, allowing communications to be precisely tailored to the needs and preferences of the audience at any given time.
The long-term plan is to develop strategic cooperation with the client, supporting him not only in acquiring new leads, but also in building a positive brand image and loyalty among potential buyers. The success of the campaign and openness to cooperation on future projects is a clear signal to us that our approach brings tangible benefits and meets the high expectations of the market.
