Bakground

When Team Clarke approached us in early 2018, it had a problem. Despite being North Vancouver’s top selling real estate team year after year, its brand and digital presence were stuck in the past.

It needed a new brand and website overhaul that reflected the evolution of Team Clarke, while building on the reputation and carrying on the legacy its late Founder, Shirley Clarke, had spent her life creating.

The Importance of Legacy

For Team Clarke, we didn’t have to search very hard to uncover the ‘ethos’ of its Founder, Shirley. Her legacy lives on today through the charity drives, community events and campaigns she facilitated throughout her life.

Beyond her reputation as a stellar REALTOR, she was known as a community builder; a connecter and facilitator; someone who intentionally created events and environments where newcomers and long-standing residents of North Vancouver could connect and form meaningful relationships. For Shirley Clarke, real estate was a chance to help people find a home, but more importantly, a vehicle to foster and create a resilient communities.

Yes, this new brand needed to be fresh and versatile, but real success meant capturing Shirley’s heart for community above all and carrying it across every brand touchpoint.

Prioritizing the User’s Needs

The new site features a custom-built map search that integrates with MLS and incorporates convenient features like “search by dragging the map” and toggles between viewing styles. We also connected the site to Yelp so users could search nearby restaurants, cafes, parks, and other attractions.

Because we know people factor a listing’s surroundings into their decision-making process, each listing details page pulls in local attractions. Similarly, on attraction detail pages, nearby listings are displayed.
