The Situation
A multifamily community in Roswell, Georgia, was entering a period of strong population and job growth, creating increased demand from prospective renters. Despite favorable market conditions, the property wasn't capturing the available demand. Additionally, limited visibility across key digital channels resulted in low website traffic and fewer opportunities to convert prospective residents.
To capitalize on the local market opportunity and address their visibility issues, the property partnered with Conversion Logix to leverage our proprietary Unified Attribution model and reporting, which identifies the campaigns having the greatest impact. By reallocating budget toward the channels driving the strongest conversion paths and optimizing campaign performance, the community significantly expanded its reach and engagement over a three-month period.
The Solution
Leveraging insights from Unified Attribution that uncovered the touchpoints to conversions, Conversion Logix shifted investment away from lower-performing retargeting efforts and toward Paid Search and Social Media, the channels most consistently influencing leasing conversions.
The strategy focused on increasing visibility earlier in the renter journey while giving Google's optimization tools enough data to improve campaign performance.
The impact was immediate.
Website traffic increased 156%, Paid Search impressions grew 190%, and website clicks climbed 218%, signaling a substantial increase in qualified renter interest.
Social Media also became a major driver of awareness. Impressions increased by 249% while clicks rose 213% through highly targeted Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube campaigns designed to reach renters actively searching within the market.
Together, Paid Search and Social Media created the property's strongest attribution pathway, generating more qualified engagement while supporting leasing performance. By June 2026, occupancy had reached 81%, representing nearly a 20% increase during the campaign period.

Campaign refinements, including keyword additions and exclusions introduced in March, helped drive a 233% increase in visits to the leasing portal, demonstrating stronger purchase intent from prospective renters.

- Website traffic - 156%
- Impressions - 190%

Targeted messaging and audience segmentation helped dramatically expand visibility while driving higher engagement.
