Client Background

Gibson Beach Rentals, a vacation rental business, offers short-term rental properties in the beautiful locations of Destin, Miramar Beach, and Panama City Beach, FL. Despite their prime locations, Gibson Beach Rentals faced challenges in making their brand stand out online and reaching their target audience effectively.

  • Online Presence: Their branding and digital visibility needed significant improvement.
  • Email List: They aimed to grow their email list to maintain better communication with potential and existing customers.
  • Website Traffic and Social Media Following: Increasing traffic to their website and expanding their social media reach were also top priorities.

Implementation

Our approach was methodical and strategic. We rolled out the services within two weeks of commencing the project. Here’s how we implemented each service:

  • Branding and Design: The new logo and brand elements gave Gibson Beach Rentals a fresh and cohesive look.
  • Email Marketing: The monthly email campaigns were designed to grow their list and improve engagement rates.
  • SEO and Blogging: The blogs not only improved SEO but also provided valuable information to potential guests.
  • Social Media Content: By highlighting specific units, showcasing testimonials, and creating shareable content, we drove more traffic to their website and increased social media engagement.

Results

The project, which ran from 2021 to 2024, yielded impressive results:

The Polished Chef

Nathan Davis

“Partnering with Tabatha has been a dream come true. I hired her to do 45-60 edited short videos each month. Her work has been great and communication is top notch. I ran into some process issues on my end that weren't efficient and considered no longer using the service. Instead of forcing me to do it a certain way, she took the time to help me find a new, better way and now we are back on track and I couldnt be happier. Seriously, thank you so much Tabatha.”
