Client Overview

The Situation

A new residential development needed to generate qualified buyer leads ahead of launch. Drone footage, virtual tour content, and precisely targeted Meta and Google campaigns delivered over 400 qualified leads in the pre-launch window.

The Problem

The developer had strong architectural plans but no digital presence and no lead pipeline ahead of their launch date. Competing developments were already running paid campaigns, and the client needed to build awareness and capture buyer interest fast.

Our Strategy

We produced cinematic drone footage and a virtual property walkthrough, built a dedicated project microsite with lead capture, and ran parallel Meta and Google Ads campaigns targeting property-intent audiences segmented by budget and family stage.

Implementation

  • Drone photography and video production covering the full development site
  • Dedicated project microsite with floor plans, pricing, and lead capture forms
  • Meta Ads campaign with custom and lookalike audience targeting
  • Google Search and Display campaigns targeting property-purchase intent keywords
  • Automated lead follow-up sequence via email and WhatsApp
  • Weekly lead quality reporting with the sales team
