When you get the privilege of handling a company’s branding from its start-up, anything is possible. That was our attitude when we began working with Campus Crest in 2004—and that was Campus Crest’s attitude when they set out to become the highest quality provider of student housing worldwide. To help them get there, we developed brand identity that positioned their student housing properties, The Grove, as radically different student housing.
The success of our strategy rests on one key insight: it’s not about the pool; it’s about what happens at the pool. The market is crowded with student housing options that push amenities. We cut through the market clutter by building and promoting lifestyle—a fully loaded college living experience students couldn’t find anywhere else. Every Grove decision, from building bigger clubhouses to hosting outrageous social events to connecting residents with rewarding volunteer opportunities, was designed to enhance The Grove lifestyle.
Why? We recognized that the most important marketer in any consumer’s life is someone he trusts, so we created a brand experience that inspires students to tell their friends about life at The Grove. We supported that experience with fun promotional and sales collateral that was also designed to be talkable.
It paid off. Grove communities began selling out of beds before construction was even completed. We fed this word of mouth fueled momentum with strategic messaging, marketing campaigns, online engagement, and brand development. The brand grew strong enough to take Campus Crest public—even in the middle of a recession. Named 2009’s second fastest growing private real estate company in the U.S., the organization raised $380 million in public offerings and officially went public in October 2010.
