Slate Asset Management aimed to elevate Corktown Condos into a must-have address in downtown Hamilton—a city in transformation. With discerning urban buyers and investors to engage, Corktown needed more than a website or media plan.

LinkedIn Ads: Targeted professionals and real estate investors with messaging tailored to urban growth and market potential.

Publisher Direct & Ethnic Media

Strategic placements across top-tier Hamilton and GTA news outlets.
Culturally resonant campaigns in ethnic media to reach a broad, diverse audience segment.
