The Challenge
Holbrook, a premier senior living community, struggled to generate high-quality leads and maximize their digital presence. Despite having a strong service offering, their online visibility was limited, conversion costs were high, and their search rankings were inconsistent.

- SEO Optimization: Improving search engine rankings by targeting high-intent keywords and enhancing local visibility through Google’s Map Pack.
- Search Engine Marketing (SEM): Refining PPC campaigns to optimize bid strategies, improve ad relevance, and lower cost-per-click while increasing conversions.
- Email Marketing: Establishing a structured welcome series to engage potential residents and nurture leads effectively.
