The Ritz-Carlton Residences in Baltimore is luxury living at the heart of Federal Hill’s waterfront.

Prior to their grand opening, the Ritz-Carlton Residences in Baltimore had 139 contracts for 192 units. And then the housing crisis of 2008 happened. More than 85% of those contracts defaulted.

To make matters worse, if users searched for “the ritz in baltimore” on Google, they would find a local gentlemen’s club before Ritz-Carlton Residences. They knew they needed higher search visibility and more sales, fast.

Unprecedented marketing reporting showed the revenue impact of each online marketing channel.

Through a process designed for clear communication built a foundation of trust, Ritz-Carlton Residences and Silverback drove qualified web traffic with a higher likelihood of purchasing luxury properties.

The Ritz-Carlton Residences targeted keywords across search channels that captured audiences with a higher chance of converting into sales.

The technical foundation of the Ritz-Carlton Residences website was improved to align with the keyword strategy.

Advanced analytics ensured Ritz-Carlton Residences drove high-quality leads, not just quantity.

We went from having 10 sales in a year to averaging 30 to 40 sales a year for the next three years.
