Brand Strategy for Matthews of Chester
History
We have been working with Matthews of Chester Chester’s biggest and most successful Estate Agent for over 5 years, building a website for them in conjunction with a leading Chester design agency back in 2015. As with all Estate Agency Websites, we build in WordPress and link to their Property Management system, originally CFP. We continued to work with Matthews to optimise their website for Google search and helped on ad-hoc development projects. We had however, long been keen to help them more with their marketing so put together ideas for a more structured Digital Marketing and content plan.
Key messaging Workshops
Towards the end of 2019 our discussions with Matthews turned to branding. Their messaging and branding had become confused over time. What did Matthews stand for? Where did they fit in the local market? What made their business so special? We felt that if we could answer these questions and distil them into messages to the market, it would move their marketing forward hugely. We already had a great understanding of the business but suggested running a number of Branding Workshops.
We organised a workshop, inviting all of the senior team at Matthews. We ran a number of exercises with the team designed to brainstorm what Matthews offer to the market. Our aim here was to document all of the outcomes and distil these down into the most valuable and powerful differentiators Matthews deliver every day.

Branding
With a full Branding and Messaging strategy document, our Design Director was able to design a number brand ideas that reflected all of the messaging. Matthews chose their brand ideas and the work began to create a new website and all marketing collateral. We continue our work with Matthews growing their website traffic and solidifying their position as Chester’s premium estate agency.
Content Marketing and Search Engine Optimisation
