Our Differentiated Marketing Strategy Resulted In A Lease Up That Exceeded Revenue Targets By +21%

During our competitive analysis, we uncovered an opportunity to differentiate 30 Kent Street's amenity programming and create sub-identities for the amenity spaces. This was in stark contrast to the "laundry list" of amenities that our competitors marketed.

Our market analysis revealed renters' confusion between Kent Ave in well-known Williamsburg and Kent Street in Greenpoint. During early construction, we launched a guerilla brand awareness campaign on the streets of Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan to create awareness about Kent Street, Greenpoint.

This was a really fun experiment in creating an effective brand in both the digital and physical realms. We had the privilege of being involved with the project from day one with our hands in everything from amenity planning through building signage, allowing us to create a really cohesive message across all visual and marketing assets. The guerilla marketing posters were the cherry on top presenting an awesome opportunity to deliver a creative approach to the Kent Street vs. Kent Ave confusion.
