Innovation Regeneration

When Realmark launched their new brand two months ago, it was more than a cosmetic change of logo. It was a statement to the market place reflecting their values and service, designed to meet the needs of their contemporary clients.

Realmark started nearly 20 years ago as a single office with less than 10employees. Today the business comprises five offices with more than 100 staff. Along the way they have operated independently, as well as part of a franchise. Now they are a stand-alone group again, with innovation as their mantra.

“Perth is a young, fresh, contemporary city with a fast corporate life,” says Realmark principal Mr John Percudani. “Realmark differentiates itself from its competitors by being first to market with new ideas and fresh concepts. That’s why we are a recognised innovator and communicator in the marketplace.”

This is supported by the team’s outstanding success at the recent 2007 Real Estate Institute of WA Excellence awards where they collected the prizes for both Innovation and Communication. Launching their new brand is another way of promoting their unique marketing approach, which embraces full utilization of the web through their e-marketing campaigns and other methods.

“We provide buyers with information about our properties which is rich in information, including quality photography and virtual on-line experiences,” say Mr Percudani. “This gives our clients an advantage because buyers arrive at property inspections with all the facts. They are ready to make informed buying decisions. Our properties sell quicker and both sellers and buyers are satisfied.”

Mr Percudani and his team researched what leading marketers do across the world to promote and deliver products to their client base.

“A lot of agencies go through cosmetic brand changes,” says Mr Percudani. “But we have made real changes – to systems, tools and marketing methods. And our clients benefit from this ongoing improvement.”
