Brand

Development

Take advantage of the more than 30 years of experience we have in building brands for the mortgage and real estate industries.

Noted digital marketing expert Niel Patel and longtime Google CEO Eric Emerson Schmidt share the belief that the most significant influencer of your online visibility is your brand.

The simple fact is that company’s performance is directly tied to the strength, influence and integrity of your brand ─ not only in terms of winning new business, but also in terms attracting and retaining top-performers in the mortgage industry.

According to Forbes Magazine, “Put simply, your ’brand‘ is what your prospect thinks of when he or she hears your brand name.” It’s everything the public thinks it knows about your name brand offering —both factual (e.g., It comes in a robin’s-egg-blue box) and emotional (e.g., It’s romantic). Your brand name exists objectively; people can see it. It’s fixed. But your brand exists only in someone’s mind.”

If you struggle to define your brand and what it stands for, or if you find yourself in a perpetual state of rebranding due to a lack of brand confidence or focus, take advantage of our more than 30 years of branding experience. Rather than simply rebranding, let us help you develop a brand strategy that works for you and your company. As brand consultants to the mortgage and real estate industries, we know how to build your brand and, therefore, your success.

At Seroka, we have perfected a branding process over time. It’s focused on growing the key performance indicators (KPIs) and critical metrics that bring you success in your market. In addition, we design strategies for creating cultures of continuous improvement. The result is improved operational excellence and product/service leadership.
