Singapore, 17th November 2008:
PropertyGuru, Singapore’s leading real estate website used by 220,000 house-hunters every month, launches a national outdoor advertising campaign created by Rocket X Media. Buses and taxis splashed in red houses, prominent PropertyGuru logo and “The FASTEST way to FIND A HOME” strapline, will be seen across the Island starting this week.
Rocket X Media, highly familiar with the local property scene and with many real estate accounts under their portfolio, has been appointed as PropertyGuru’s creative agency. To support PropertyGuru's newly revamped website, Rocket X Media has adopted a visually arresting creative concept highlighting PropertyGuru's corporate logo together with bold colours and images. The campaign aptly fulfills the marketing and branding objectives of PropertyGuru.
The first phase of the creative is direct and attention-grabbing, with the primary objective of increasing brand awareness among Consumers, Real Estate Agents and Property Developers. The campaign also aims to highlight the speed and convenience benefits of finding property online with PropertyGuru.
“PropertyGuru has been embraced by house-hunters and property advertisers since its launch in 2007 and monthly users have grown from 28,000 to 220,000 in 2008 alone. This campaign will further enhance awareness, augment our positioning in the marketplace and reinforce our brand as THE place to find property and property information online” stated Jani Rautiainen and Steve Melhuish, co-founders of PropertyGuru.com.sg.
PropertyGuru works with prominent Singapore and overseas real estate developers, agencies and agents to provide instant access to 25,000 properties online. It also offers property alerts, monthly newsletters, expert mortgage advice, real estate market news, pricing trends, new property launches, condo directories, HDB guides and online consumer property questions and answers service.
