Marketing & Branding

To complement the Urbanity Advisors’ urban planning and real estate development services, we also offer marketing and branding to help municipalities and developers advertise their projects.

From an urban planning perspective, this can include anything that may be needed to encourage effective community engagement, such as social media management, website creation, as well as general branding and design. We’ve found that community members lend more trust to processes that are well put together, which includes the visual materials provided and distributed through the neighborhood. Additionally, social media can serve as a great medium for connecting to the younger community members to obtain the often missed youth opinion.

For developers, Urbanity Advisors prevents piecemeal messaging by complementing our market research services and providing a partnership that will result in consistent messaging from groundbreaking to grand opening. We will handle the development of your brand, while creating excitement and buzz through social media and the web, with an unmatched understanding of your target audience and environment.
