The Challenge
The Carnegie at Washingtonian Center was the first debut of the Kisco Signature senior living communities in the Northeast. This 8-story community residence would be home to a younger senior lifestyle experience for independent, assisted living, and memory care. With a building yet to be constructed, a handful of renderings and little brand recognition, Point was challenged to get the attention of early adopters and create interest in future residence at The Carnegie, and garnered incredible lead gen results over the course of 6 months.

Our Strategy
Localized with Mass Appeal
Market research revealed a key component to the marketing strategy needed to center on a localized appeal that resonated with the younger senior target audience on the cusp of retirement. Within a highly competitive environment, we knew we needed to make a strong statement about the Kisco brand (coming in from California) that would showcase its strength and value in the senior living luxury tier brandscape.

Our Strategy
A Place for Discovery
The first step was to create an immersive experience and provide a place for prospective residents to experience the grandeur of the architecture and interior design before the building would open two years later. The Discovery Center serves as a backdrop for multiple interactive kiosks that told the story from different points of view: leadership, associates, and residents of existing Kisco communities.
The Solution
Multi-Tiered Immersion
The educational series campaign centered on driving traffic to the website for lead capture and visits to The Discovery Center for a tour of the built-to-scale two-bedroom model and common area as The Carnegie was being built right down the street. The goal was to gain the attention of prospects thinking 18 months in advance for their retirement and luring them to a customer experience tour at The Discovery Center.
We knew that video would be a key marketing tool to bring the brand to life and showcase the multiple attributes The Carnegie had to offer. Six kiosks were built in partnership with Engrain Touch Technology to reveal videos, testimonials, and photos of the six pillars of wellness and signature five-star service. The videos became an integral part of the communications campaign, blending with the power of PR, the engagement of social media, and the lead nurturing of email marketing.
