I strongly recommend BrandPartners to any company seeking a true business partner.

BrandPartners is a member of my team and a trusted advisor.

I hired BrandPartners to fill the interim Chief Marketing Officer position for my company. I worked closely with their co-founder, Melis Steiner, and built a wonderful working relationship. She’s a great person who truly cares about her clients. Her broad range of skills are incredibly helpful for a startup like mine since she was able to help with everything from strategies and PR to video demos, branding, and website content. I never felt like I was lost in the shuffle of a big agency. She became a member of my team and a trusted advisor. I recommend her and BrandPartners to anyone.

OPENING THE GATE TO A 40% BOOST IN SALES

TARGETED, MULTI-CHANNEL MARKETING CAMPAIGN PROVIDES VALUABLE ACCESS TO GATED COMMUNITIES FOR ROOFING CONTRACTOR

SUCCESS STORY: 40% BOOST IN MONTHLY SALES

Our roofing client had a robust canvassing program with massive success in door-to-door sales. However, they faced challenges in gated neighborhoods, which were becoming more strict about sales activities—even when they were granted entry. We worked with them and several vendors to devise a multi-channel digital and direct mail strategy to generate qualified leads and appointments for their sales team. Once the appointments were set, the sales teams could gain access to the homeowners. These appointments often resulted in introductions to neighbors and became a significant source of referrals for our client.

This effort required collaboration with a data science company and direct mail printing vendor. Over the course of six months, these efforts generated 970 qualified appointments. The company successfully closed the vast majority of these leads, achieving a 40% increase in their monthly sales.

BrandPartners provided strategy, creative direction, design, copywriting, and project management services for all elements of the marketing campaign.
We also creative directed and produced the video and photo content to ensure we could maximize their value across ad campaigns, the website, recruitment efforts, and social media.
We collaborated with the data analytics company to specifically target the gated communities with the perfect combination of factors as defined by the client. Specifically, those that experienced a recent storm and had expensive roof types that our client specialized in.
Our multi-channel marketing efforts included:
- direct mail
