28 COLLATERAL

We recommend that the following marketing collateral be
available from the phase one in order to ensure that the
pre-sales period, sales events and exhibitions are as successful

and informative as possible.

Brochure / Property Report

The brochures should include a number
of external and internal CGIs of the
development, including communal areas
and amenities, as well as an overview
of the proposed specification. We can
commission a research based property
report giving an overview of the local
Wollongong area.

CGIs

We recommend that professional
photography is used to create view lines
of each aspect from every floor.

Social Media

Social media is fast becoming an integral
part of the marketing mix. Therefore, a
well-planned, strategic campaign must
be in place to develop relationships with
potential purchasers. There are a number
of routes to reach and cultivate this
relationship: YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook.

Radio

radio in the Illawarra is a highly
potent force for marketing. With one
radio station dominating the local
demographics, enquiries from previous
campaigns have added to over 30% of all
enquiry for residential campaigns.
