One regional story, twelve county voices.
A 12-county economic development alliance needed to strengthen its shared brand and market Southwest Arkansas as one connected region.
Click for MoreThe Challenge
The Southwest Arkansas Development Alliance is a collaborative effort of 12 counties that came together to strengthen their regional brand and market their collective abilities as one group. The project had a tight deadline and required a team that understood both economic development strategy and the kind of storytelling needed to make communities stand out.
The Discovery Process
We began by identifying key influencers in each county and scheduling time with them to understand local goals, priorities, challenges, and opportunities. Those conversations helped shape the story of each county while keeping the larger regional message consistent.
The Research
From there, our team identified local businesses to highlight, researched demographics and statistics, and studied housing and workforce trends. The goal was to build a story that was useful for site developers and selectors, while still feeling authentic to the people and communities of Southwest Arkansas.
The Site Selector Detail
Economic development marketing has to answer practical questions quickly. We researched and organized the details site selectors need when evaluating a location, including healthcare access, utilities, schools, restaurants, housing, workforce availability, demographics, transportation, available incentives, and the local quality-of-life factors that influence long-term decisions.
The Video Execution
The final story came to life through video. The site launched with more than 50 videos highlighting each county's lifestyle, workforce, current industries, available sites and buildings, and housing opportunities.
The Expansion
The work expanded into separate websites for Lafayette County and Howard County, each going into deeper detail about local economic and community development. Together, the three sites provide relevant, targeted information for site developers and selectors while also giving residents and potential residents a clear picture of the communities, the opportunities, and the reasons to stay, return, or move.
- Regional brand strategy for a 12-county economic development alliance
- County-level interviews, influencer outreach, demographics, statistics, housing, and workforce research
- Site selector research covering healthcare, utilities, schools, restaurants, incentives, transportation, and quality of life
- More than 50 launch videos covering lifestyle, workforce, industries, sites, buildings, and housing
- Expanded development into Lafayette County and Howard County community and economic development sites
Fragmented identity to national brand.
Bank of England Mortgage came to DNT as a $600 million mortgage bank with huge upside, but a fractured brand system that needed one clear identity.
Click for MoreThe Challenge
Bank of England Mortgage came to DNT as a $600 million mortgage bank positioned for tremendous growth. The opportunity was clear, but the brand was not. Across the company and its branches, BOE was operating with three different identities and nearly a dozen different logos.
The Brand Unification
Our first step was to bring order to the brand. We conducted market research into names, colors, and identity direction, then created a single brand system that every branch could use. That gave the company a consistent national presence while still supporting the local relationships that drive mortgage business.
The Digital Infrastructure
As the partnership grew, DNT became a major digital and technical partner for BOE. We built more than 100 websites for the company and its branches, developed a custom CRM, built and operated the company store, created a custom document templating engine, and developed multiple compliance systems.
The Mobile Experience
We also helped BOE move deeper into mobile. That included a mobile app and a mobile mortgage application designed to make the lending process easier to access, easier to manage, and more useful for borrowers, loan officers, and branch teams.
The Marketing Engine
Beyond software and web development, we managed BOE's email marketing, published a monthly eNewsletter to more than 300,000 customers, and wrote, printed, and published a monthly magazine that helped loan officers co-market their services to realtors.
The Result
Over the decade-long partnership, DNT helped BOE support massive growth. The brand grew from $600 million in annual mortgage loans to more than $7.5 billion, backed by a unified identity, branch-level marketing support, custom technology, and a scalable communication system.
- Brand research, naming direction, color research, and unified identity system
- 100+ company and branch websites, custom CRM, company store, and document templating engine
- Compliance systems, mobile app, and mobile mortgage application
- Email marketing, 300k+ customer eNewsletter, and monthly realtor co-marketing magazine
- Growth from $600 million to more than $7.5 billion in annual mortgage loans
Becoming the Science of Shot.
After a down year, Patternmaster came to DNT ready to sharpen the brand, the message, and the market plan.
Click for MoreThe Challenge
Patternmaster came to DNT Media in 2009 after the first down year in the company's 16-year history. The product had a real performance story, but the brand, packaging, website, and marketing system needed to do a better job explaining why Patternmaster was different.
The Brand Reset
We started with a complete overhaul of the brand. That included a new logo, a new slogan, redesigned packaging, and a new website. The goal was not just to make the company look better. It was to make the value of the product easier to understand, easier to believe, and easier for dealers and consumers to talk about.
The Science Of Shot
The heart of the repositioning was Patternmaster's research and patented technology. We built the message around the slogan "The Science of Shot," giving the brand a clear, ownable idea that separated it from commodity choke tubes and centered the conversation on proof, performance, and precision.
The Campaign System
Starting with a small first-year marketing budget, we built a broad campaign ecosystem around that new position. Over time, DNT created digital marketing pieces, print marketing pieces, mobile apps, dealer posters, dealer catalogs, email marketing campaigns, and the annual consumer catalog.
Beyond Creative
Our work expanded into the operational side of growth. We managed printing and mailing for the annual catalog, made recommendations for product line expansion, advised on apparel and promotional items, helped develop a field staff, and supported the creation of a nationwide sales and marketing team.
The Result
What began as a brand rejuvenation became a growth partnership. By focusing on what made Patternmaster different and building a complete marketing system around that difference, the marketing budget grew to nearly 15 times the original investment.
- Logo, slogan, packaging, website, and brand repositioning
- Digital, print, mobile app, email, dealer, and catalog marketing
- Product line, apparel, promotional item, and sales team support
- Nearly 15x growth in marketing budget over the life of the partnership
