Construction Content Development

UNANIMOUS helps Darland promote their great commercial construction projects with regularly scheduled content development. Project broadcasts are case studies featuring a particular project and outlining Darland’s capabilities to deliver on partner goals. They are produced monthly and sent out to clients via email. Broadcasts demonstrate that Darland is proud of their end product and also promote steady communication with potential partners, allowing Darland to stay top-of-mind with potential clients.

Brochures, inserts, business cards, flyers, personalized letters, booklets, and more are all interchangeable and may be included depending on their business development needs. The folder allows for a professionally bundled, custom-tailored presentation that is considerate of potential clients’ time and desire for specific information.
