When Christine Gleed approached us to support the launch of The Osprey Luxury Townhomes, we eagerly stepped in with our tried-and-true Real Estate New Build Development Program: The Foundation. Our team provided end-to-end strategic support—crafting the brand identity, building a lead-generating online funnel, and developing polished sales materials. With the foundational tools in place, Christine’s team simply added the unique details of their stunning seaside build.
We also partnered with our rendering artist and drone photographer to capture breathtaking imagery, seamlessly integrating renderings into real-world drone shots to give prospective buyers a clear and astonishing view of this fabulous location. To build early momentum, we activated our trusted realtor network, ensuring buzz around this exciting new offering reached the right audience from day one.

Swank Creative Inc’s strategic marketing services for the Early Music Society of the Islands comprised a series of essential phases. Commencing with an in-depth strategic planning session, which included a SWOT analysis, the process laid a solid foundation for the subsequent strategic actions.
A crucial aspect of the initial phase involved Swank Creative Inc gaining access to all existing digital marketing assets. This was followed by a meticulous audit of the previous year’s performance, providing valuable insights into the society’s past marketing endeavors. Additionally, one-to-one interviews with board members and the team were conducted to capture diverse perspectives, culminating in a comprehensive report detailing the collective findings.
Following the information-gathering phase, a dedicated 2-hour strategic planning meeting ensued, wherein the identified opportunities and challenges were thoroughly discussed. The subsequent focus shifted to campaign planning, outlining actionable steps for the upcoming period. Post-implementation, a comprehensive report detailing the results after three months was presented, offering a thorough performance overview.
To fortify the Early Music Society’s marketing approach for the future, Swank Creative Inc developed campaign implementation checklists and creative design templates for the upcoming year. This holistic strategy not only addressed immediate needs but also laid the groundwork for sustained success and growth. An Annual Process that we continue to review, evaluate, and optimize for them year after year.

The implementation of a robust marketing strategy, inclusive of checklists, website optimizations, and consistent campaign design, played a pivotal role in revitalizing the Early Music Society. The strategic approach provided a clear roadmap for effective communication and engagement. Through regular reports, the society gained valuable insights into campaign performance, allowing for informed decision-making. Moreover, the integration of editable templates empowered the team, fostering a sense of autonomy and flexibility in adapting to evolving needs. This holistic marketing framework not only supported the society’s immediate goals but also laid a foundation for sustained success and adaptability in the ever-changing landscape of the arts community.
“We were referred to Kathryn and her team after working with a larger agency in Victoria. Swank Creative Inc. provided us with the holistic approach to our marketing that we needed, rather than just focussing on a particular campaign. This involved providing us with a strategic marketing plan, refining our website and social media channels, providing immediate insights and optimizations that had a substantial impact. They also furnished us with a detailed analysis of results, editable templates, and checklists for membership renewals and event promotion, allowing us to replicate successful campaigns.
Our goal was to evolve to be more savvy and proactive about our marketing and promotional activities. Kathryn and her team have moved us forward in achieving that goal not only by designing and managing our campaigns, but by helping us develop insights and skills that allow us to leverage the advice and technical work we receive from her.
We have experienced concrete results since starting to work with Swank Creative Inc. as we claw our way back from the pandemic’s impacts. We have seen a direct relationship between our marketing efforts and our 36% year-on-year revenue growth and 51% increase in subscriptions. Most importantly, we are seeing not only the recapture of our pre-pandemic market, but the building of a new audience, with 69% of the growth represented by new audience members, and a 35% increase in our mailing list.
Kathryn’s responsiveness, transparency and willingness to share her knowledge and expertise truly set her apart.”
