TownX

Building the digital growth engine for a real estate developer.

When I joined TownX, there was no structured digital marketing system in place. There were no active ad campaigns, no conversion tracking, no website enquiry forms, no CRM-connected inbound flow, and no reliable lifecycle setup. My role quickly became bigger than campaign execution. I led the effort to build the company’s digital growth infrastructure from scratch across paid media, website journeys, CRM automation, analytics, WhatsApp, email, SEO direction, and overall marketing systems.

The starting point

An underbuilt digital stack that needed to be rebuilt properly

TownX had projects ready to market, but the digital foundation behind growth was largely missing. Before campaigns could scale, the core system had to be designed and implemented first.

What I walked into

There were no active paid campaigns, no structured ad accounts, no business manager clarity, no conversion tracking, no website contact or enquiry forms, and no unified CRM-connected inbound flow. Most inbound activity came inconsistently through scattered social media accounts, which made follow-up and attribution unreliable from the start.

Core gaps

  • No active paid media setup across Google, Meta, or LinkedIn
  • No conversion tracking or event framework in place
  • No website enquiry or lead capture forms
  • No CRM-connected lead pipeline
  • Duplicate and fragmented social account presence
  • Weak website structure, SEO issues, and duplicated blog content
The real challenge: this was not about improving an existing funnel. It was about creating the company’s digital acquisition foundation from the ground up and making it scalable enough to support multiple projects at once.
My role

More than campaign execution

While my title is Digital Marketing Manager, my role has effectively been to build and lead the company’s digital marketing function. That meant setting direction, making infrastructure decisions, coordinating specialists, and ensuring every channel and system worked as one connected engine.

Strategic ownership

  • Defined overall digital acquisition direction
  • Shaped paid media strategy across launches
  • Directed messaging and creative approach for ads
  • Planned landing page journeys and funnel structure

Cross-functional leadership

  • Worked with the CRM specialist to guide automation setup
  • Sourced and coordinated with the freelance SEO specialist
  • Set direction for social media content and platform presence
  • Aligned marketing systems with sales workflow and reporting needs
What I built

The digital growth system behind TownX

The work spanned far beyond ads. The focus was on building the underlying infrastructure that allows marketing to generate, route, nurture, and measure demand properly.

Paid media engine

Built the paid media foundation across Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, and YouTube for Luma Park Views, 11 Hills Park, and Ashley Hills.

  • Structured campaigns around audience intent
  • Created dedicated ad-to-landing journeys on subdomains
  • Aligned UTMs, keywords, copy, and layouts for stronger message match
  • Directed creative and copy direction across paid platforms

Website revamp

The website needed a serious rebuild before it could support performance properly. I overhauled the experience with a stronger focus on clarity, conversion, and professionalism.

  • Improved page structure and content hierarchy
  • Resolved duplicated blog content and weak SEO implementation
  • Created a more polished, conversion-ready web presence
  • Improved the website enough for leadership to confidently send traffic to it

Lead capture + CRM pipeline

One of the biggest shifts was turning TownX into a business with a real inbound system instead of scattered enquiries.

  • Implemented website contact and enquiry forms from scratch
  • Built automated lead routing into Zoho via Zapier and APIs
  • Connected website forms, Unbounce, Meta Lead Ads, and LinkedIn Lead Gen
  • Set up validation, reCAPTCHA, deduping, SLA-based assignment, and source reporting

Tracking + measurement

Reliable decision-making needed proper data. I stood up the measurement layer needed to understand what marketing was actually doing.

  • Built GTM event tracking structure
  • Configured GA4 with a clearer event taxonomy
  • Implemented enhanced conversions where relevant
  • Created cleaner attribution through consistent UTM structure

Lifecycle marketing

Beyond lead capture, I built the communication layer needed to nurture demand across channels.

  • Set up WhatsApp API marketing through Brevo
  • Built segmented WhatsApp broadcasts and journey flows
  • Implemented email marketing via Zoho
  • Used UTMs and CRM sync to improve source-level visibility

SEO + content direction

I also helped shape the longer-term organic foundation by coordinating specialists and setting clearer direction across search and social.

  • Sourced and onboarded the freelance SEO specialist
  • Worked with him to improve TownX’s search presence
  • Defined direction for social media content, copy, and creative
  • Built stronger consistency across paid, web, social, and lifecycle messaging

Infrastructure & security recovery

During my time at TownX, the website server was compromised. I helped drive the recovery process end-to-end, including identifying infected files, cleaning the environment, restoring clean backups, migrating the website to a VPS setup, and strengthening protection through Cloudflare and additional hardening steps. That work improved not just security, but also long-term reliability and performance.

Impact

What this work changed

The biggest outcome was not a single campaign metric. It was the creation of a working digital growth system that TownX did not previously have.

First real inbound system

Website lead capture, landing pages, lead forms, and CRM routing were built from scratch to create a proper inbound channel.

~10 hours saved weekly

Automation removed multiple manual steps across lead handling, validation, assignment, and reporting.

Stronger cross-channel clarity

Paid media, website journeys, CRM, WhatsApp, and email are now connected in a way that supports better attribution and decision-making.

Most importantly: TownX now has a structured digital acquisition system capable of supporting multiple project launches simultaneously; something that did not exist before.
