Problems

Typical problems we see

Typical pain #1 – Every stakeholder tells a different story

  • Retail leasing, hotel operators, and civic partners produce disconnected decks.
  • Investors struggle to see how the pieces connect into a resilient program.
  • Chinese partners only see isolated building facts, not the district promise.

Typical pain #2 – Demand generation stalls after launch events

  • Showcase events in China create buzz but no structured follow-up.
  • No shared KPI dashboard for leasing, hospitality, and placemaking teams.
  • Marketing budgets can’t be defended because impact is anecdotal.

Solution

How we solve this

Pillar 1 – Waterfront master narrative & governance

Align all stakeholders on a China-specific positioning system and a shared source of truth for messaging.

Pillar 2 – Modular content & experience library

Hero films, immersive landing pages, and tenant pitch kits localized once, then tailored by use case.

Pillar 3 – Demand & leasing operating system

Campaign cadences, partner enablement, and reporting that show which activations move leasing and investment outcomes.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you coordinate messaging across multiple joint-venture partners?

Yes. We typically establish a shared positioning playbook and governance rituals so each JV partner tells the same China story.

Do you support retail tenant and hospitality operator outreach?

We create localized pitch materials and outreach sequences for each category, then work with your leasing or operator teams to run them.
