Background

Real Property Management initially came to

Fishman PR asking us to produce a printed

newsletter to promote customer retention by

regularly communicating with their clients –

property owners.

The Fishman PR content marketing team saw

much greater potential and an opportunity to

increase the ROI of the initiative.

The Idea

By creating a Branded Hub and distributing the high-quality articles

created for the print newsletter online, Real Property Management

would be able to drive traffic to its website, generate more leads

and retain customers.

Branded Hub

The Fishman PR team developed an optimized

Branded Hub that features the latest in SEO

tools.

The right background technical setup allows for

Google’s “crawlers” to scan content so that it

may rank higher in searches.

The Branded Hub directs valuable traffic toward

Real Property Management’s website.

Print Newsletter

The print newsletter acted as a

strategic piece of direct mail marketing

collateral that Real Property

Management franchisees could

provide to their clients. It highlighted

and provide snippets of the articles that

were featured on the Branded Hub.

The printed newsletter gave clients a

physical reminder about why they are

working with RPM – because RPM is the

expert.

Results

Brand awareness and driving traffic to a

franchise website is an ongoing process.

Fishman PR worked with Real Property

Management to ensure every piece of

content created would achieve higher

search results and attract the interest of

the target audience – current clients.

Over the course of our engagement our Branded Hub was able to show:

The Branded Hub was the 4th largest generator of organic search engine traffic for the entire system.

Out of 575 pages on the national website, the Branded Hub ranked in the top 5.

Of the top 5 pages on the RPM website, visitors spent the most time on the Branded Hub - over 6 minutes per session.

Online content on the Branded Hub were the most shared pieces of content on social networks.

The high-quality content distributed to the Branded Hub was also delivered in a bi-monthly eNewsletter and print brochure.
