Project Overview:
Red Door partnered with Shea Homes to introduce and launch a new product called Shea3D. The Shea3D product gives potential homeowners the ability to create their perfect home by tailoring the primary living space to match their unique lifestyle. With Shea3D’s patent-pending YourPlans™, the homeowner chooses the placement of their kitchen, dining, entertainment, outdoor and other living areas to design a home that perfectly matches how they live. While paint colors, materials and finishes are important, the most critical decision a potential homebuyer will make is the floor plan – this is why Shea created Shea3D. The right Shea3D floor plan improves the way your family lives from the ground up. Red Door was challenged to introduce the new product in a thoughtful, accurate and simple way in order to communicate the benefits to our audience.
Goals:
Our goal was to effectively launch Shea3D online and in the market. We set out to develop a communication strategy and messaging hierarchy that thoughfully, clearly and simply defines the new product benefits. Ultimately, we wanted to drive interest and demand for Shea3D YourPlans™.
Tactics:
Product Platform RDI provided strategic recommendations for Shea3D’s product platform, story, positioning and identity. RDI also provided recommendations on a narrative and naming around the individual kitchen options as well as high-level exploration around the current logo and color palette.
