Building a Consistent Brand Voice: The Evolution of Gene

Building a Consistent Brand Voice: The Evolution of Gene

marketing 5 May 2025

When Imagine Communications, a marketing firm known for helping clients define their brand and deliver consistent messaging, decided to revamp their own website and voice, they realized that a new approach was necessary. The challenge was not just to create a cohesive voice, but to break free from the trap of data overload and conflicting creative opinions.

  1. The Challenges of Branding Close to Home

    • Branding your own company can be incredibly difficult when you’re deeply invested.

    • Multiple creative voices can cause the product to become an imperfect mosaic.

    • Too much information leads to confusion and difficulty simplifying the message.

    • Cynthia Hartness, Art Director, compared the difficulty to painting portraits of her own children—being too close to the subject can hinder the process.

  2. The Solution: Treating Themselves Like a Client

    • The team took a step back and approached the rebranding as if they were their own client.

    • The leadership team reviewed progress at regular intervals instead of involving everyone.

    • This helped prevent the issue of "too many cooks" and allowed for focused decision-making.

  3. Gene: The Birth of the Brand Voice

    • Instead of guessing what the audience would think, the team created a persona: Gene.

    • Gene embodies the company’s collective voice—friendly, honest, and straightforward, with a touch of humor.

    • Gene became a filter for all content, making it easier to stay consistent and true to the brand’s personality.

  4. Gene’s Personality: More Than Just a Voice

    • Gene is the office figure who’s trusted, easygoing, and reliable.

    • The team focused on traits of people they admired to form Gene’s persona, asking, “What would Gene say?”

    • Gene serves as a consistent, relatable presence that reflects the company’s values without feeling like an individual voice.

  5. The Evolution of Web Content with Gene

    • Gene’s personality was shaped by current trends in web development, favoring short, social media-style bits of information.

    • Gene’s tone adds humor while still delivering valuable data and expertise.

    • Bobby Long noted that working from the client side gave them new insights into the rebranding process.

By creating the persona of Gene, Imagine Communications has developed a brand voice that is consistent, approachable, and engaging. Gene serves as a filter for all content, ensuring a cohesive and friendly tone that resonates with their audience, all while navigating the evolving landscape of modern web development. The process not only led to a more effective rebranding but also offered the team valuable insights into the client experience.

RMG's Digital-First Strategy: Transforming Commercial Real Estate Marketing

RMG's Digital-First Strategy: Transforming Commercial Real Estate Marketing

marketing 5 May 2025

For years, the formula for commercial real estate marketing was simple: list a property on a portal and wait for buyers. However, this passive strategy is becoming increasingly outdated. Ready Media Group (RMG) CEO Nick Materia warns that the market needs a shift to an integrated, multi-channel approach by 2025.

  1. The Evolution of Commercial Real Estate Marketing

    • In the past, the biggest challenge was transitioning from print to digital marketing.

    • Today, the challenge is moving beyond the outdated classified model to a more integrated, dynamic marketing approach.

    • Social media has become a dominant force in marketing, with people spending hours on their feeds compared to minutes on property portals.

  2. The Role of Social Media in Real Estate Marketing

    • Nick Materia emphasizes the importance of social media as part of a comprehensive marketing strategy.

    • Not incorporating social media into campaigns is a missed opportunity.

    • RMG has adapted its offerings to include more social media integration to stay relevant and competitive.

  3. New Social Media Lead-Boosting Packages

    • RMG has introduced two new social media lead-boosting packages designed to generate interest at the critical midpoint of a property campaign.

    • These packages supplement existing social integrations in their marketing suite.

    • Early trials in Victoria have yielded positive results, with plans for a national rollout soon.

  4. RMG’s Digital-First Strategy

    • RMG has embraced a digital-first strategy with an integrated, multi-channel approach.

    • The strategy includes enhanced data solutions, social media lead generation, SEO optimization, and targeted EDMs to reach high-value investors.

    • RMG takes a proactive approach, directly delivering properties to potential buyers rather than waiting for them to come to the listings.

  5. RMG’s Multi-Channel Strategy Explained

    • Omnichannel Visibility: Leveraging social media, hyper-targeted EDMs, SEO optimization, and precision advertising to capture a broad audience.

    • Instant Digital Documentation: Providing immediate access to property information via InstaDocs, simplifying due diligence for buyers and agents.

    • Dynamic Campaign Engagement: Using multiple touchpoints throughout the campaign to maintain buyer interest and drive conversions.

Ready Media Group’s approach to commercial real estate marketing has evolved to meet the demands of 2025 and beyond. By integrating social media and adopting a digital-first, multi-channel strategy, RMG ensures that their clients can connect with high-value investors at multiple touchpoints, ultimately driving more successful campaigns and faster sales.

Domo Research: Cloud Data Warehouses See 116% Growth in Usage Over Five Years

cloud technology 5 May 2025

Domo's latest analysis of platform usage across over 4,500 customers in North America, Japan, and EMEA reveals a significant shift in how businesses manage their data. From March 2020 to March 2025, the percentage of data visualizations sourced from Cloud Data Warehouses (CDWs) surged by 116%, highlighting the increasing reliance on cloud-based solutions for data management.

  1. Growth of CDW Usage

    • Initial Usage: In March 2020, data sourced from CDWs accounted for less than 16% of total Domo card views.

    • Current Usage: By March 2025, that figure has more than doubled, with over 33% of card views now coming from CDWs.

    • Increase in Usage: This marks a 116% increase in CDW adoption, demonstrating the rapid evolution of data management strategies.

  2. Industry-Specific Trends

    • Media Industry's Shift: Media companies saw the most dramatic shift, going from lagging behind to leading in CDW usage. Now, 57% of their card views are sourced from CDWs, representing a 500% increase over the last five years.

    • Ben Schein's Insight: “The media industry’s shift to cloud platforms is driven by the need for instant access to data, enabling organizations to stay competitive in real-time.”

    • Other Industries:

      • High Tech and Manufacturing: Over 30% of their card views come from CDWs.

      • Financial Services, Retail, and Professional Services: These sectors are growing but still lag behind the 30% mark.

  3. Regional Trends in CDW Usage

    • North America and Japan: These regions have grown their CDW usage by more than 125% over the past five years, though they still trail EMEA in terms of adoption.

  4. Regulatory Influence on Cloud Adoption

    • Data Sovereignty in EMEA: European businesses, particularly those in the EMEA region, have accelerated their cloud adoption due to data sovereignty requirements and GDPR compliance.

    • Schein's Perspective: "The regulatory landscape in Europe has driven businesses toward platforms with built-in compliance capabilities, making cloud adoption not just a preference but a necessity."

  5. Implications for the Future

    • Cloud Computing Industry Growth: The increase in CDW adoption is a positive sign for the $1 trillion cloud computing industry.

    • AI and Cloud Integration: As AI becomes integral to business operations, cloud data and data products are emerging as essential infrastructure for AI initiatives.

The growth of Cloud Data Warehouses (CDWs) across industries and regions is transforming how businesses handle and leverage their data. From the media industry's swift adoption to EMEA's regulatory-driven surge, CDWs are becoming a key component of modern business infrastructure. As AI and machine learning initiatives continue to evolve, CDWs are poised to play an even more critical role in shaping the future of business data strategy.
