Introduction

Japaspace is a fictional real estate brand created for this concept project. Every strategy, framework, calendar and metric shown here is illustrative — built to demonstrate how a considered social media system would guide a property brand from first impression to qualified inquiry.

01 — Project Overview

A social media system with four jobs to do

Japaspace needed social media to do more than look beautiful. Each objective below maps to a stage of the buying decision. Select a card to see why it matters.

02 — The Challenge

Attention existed. Direction did not.

Japaspace had visual assets and an audience, but no system connecting the two to business outcomes.

01

Inconsistent content direction

02

Property features needed stronger value-based storytelling

03

Opportunity to turn social engagement into qualified inquiries

The work below rebuilds the account around one question: what does a prospective buyer need at each stage, and what content answers it?

03 — Audience Insight

Four buyers, four different anxieties

The same property means something different to each segment. Switch between them to see the pain points, goals and content needs that drive the strategy.
