KBS’ Digital Strategy Reaches Decision-Makers at 80% of Closed Deals

Situation

KBS and CBRE were looking for a way to communicate The Offices at Park Place’s message to end-users directly, especially post-tour as critical leasing decisions are being made. Despite having great relationships with the local brokerage community, they were still missing a foundational component of any marketing strategy – proactively reaching their potential customers.

Furthermore, it was critical for CBRE to apply their market knowledge to specifically target companies they had identified as qualified prospects. Within these firms, they needed to reach those involved in real estate discussions and, ultimately, execute a lease.

Solution

In February of 2021, KBS armored CBRE with RealtyAds Pursuit Marketing technology to help the brokers transact with more success. The tool instantly gave CBRE the ability to leverage their valuable data and market intelligence in a proactive fashion. CBRE immediately began populating their targeting lists in RealtyAds with tenants in the market, active pursuits, and companies who had toured the property.

At the start of Q4, after the adoption of RealtyAds, KBS announced multiple completed deals at The Offices at Park Place. RealtyAds algorithm, RITA, had reached the C-Level decision makers at 80% of the companies that signed leases at The Offices at Park Place over the previous 8 months.
