Campaign Illustrates How Apartments.com Empowers Its Advertisers to Become Everyday Superheroes Through Unmatched Exposure and Products Renters Demand
CHICAGO (June 25, 2009) – Flying into the Mandalay Bay Convention Center faster than a speeding bullet, Apartments.com announced today the launch of its new marketing campaign, “Your Most Powerful Partner” targeted to multifamily owners, investors and marketers. Debuting at the 2009 National Apartment Association (NAA) Conference and Exposition in Las Vegas, the campaign depicts how the exposure and products Apartments.com provides its advertisers turns them from mild-mannered to super-successful leasing professionals.
“Through an inspirational theme that turns every day leasing professionals into superheroes, the campaign reminds advertisers of the many benefits to partnering with Apartments.com,” said Kevin Doyle, senior vice president and general manager Aparments.com. “Despite the challenging economy, we’re committed to ensuring our advertisers continue to be heroic by adding exposure opportunities and first-class products that drive qualified renter traffic to their leasing office doors.”
As one of the most visited online destinations for renters in search of an apartment, Apartments.com has been providing its advertisers with a leading, cost-effective marketing solution for more than eleven years. “Your Most Powerful Partner” highlights the various ways Apartments.com continues to deliver its advertisers with highly qualified renter leads increasing their return on investment:
