Spotlight #3

Best Brand Continuity Project – Masonwood

Locally‑owned and operated, Masonwood has been focused on new communities in Austin for four decades building communities and homes that deliver a unique luxury lifestyle. To build an even stronger, unified brand, Masonwood knew it was time to integrate its three business units that were operating as separate divisions: Urban Infill, Home Building, Master Plan Development.

 

The Mission

Develop a new unified brand image and consistency of style for an already established brand that would resonate with multiple buyer demographics, including low‑density boutique infill, investment duplex, and master plan community home buyers. In addition to the new brand, Masonwood also wanted to launch a new website and advertising campaign sequentially in 120 days.

The Solution

SmartTouch® Interactive enhanced the Masonwood brand bringing all the disparate home offers together, establishing consistency in style, standards, photography, and graphics across all of the home builder’s communication channels (email, social, website, print ads, onsite signage/merchandising, collateral, and paper system).

With the execution of digital marketing campaigns, special promotions, and the launch of a new website SmartTouch brought their master plan developments, home builder, and urban infill communities into a single cohesive brand. The new website also allows home buyers to interact with floor plans, photo galleries, available inventory, matter ports, and virtual tours and schedule appointments online – further engaging a range of home buyers.

The Outcome

SmartTouch® Interactive successfully integrated Masonwood’s three different operating units into one seamless yet distinct brand, launched a new website and ad campaign in under 120 days on budget. Masonwood went from generating 30 leads a month to 100+ since launching the new site, brand, and ad campaign. The company also went from a run rate of 2 sales per month in March of 2020 in their two active communities to 6 in September and October of 2020.
