Challenge

SunRidge Management Group, overseeing 130 properties with 25,000 units nationwide, sought an AI-powered platform to enhance its small team's digital and localized marketing efforts. The primary challenges included:

  • Overburdened onsite managers struggling to balance content creation and social engagement with daily responsibilities.
  • Manual, time-intensive online reputation management, requiring review responses with unmanageable reporting.
  • Lack of robust reporting capabilities to demonstrate ROI for marketing.
  • Lack of localization in social media content, leading to cookie-cutter, non-targeted messaging due to lack of staffing, especially during busy seasons.

SOCi Genius Agents have transformed our marketing and reputation management efforts. They allow us to localize content and drive meaningful engagement, all from a corporate level. It’s like having an extra team member that never needs to take a break. SOCi saves us time, improves retention rates, and helps make our communities stronger. Genius Agents are an essential part of our team, always reliable and incredibly efficient.

To address these challenges, SunRidge Management Group implemented the three core SOCi Genius Agents:

    • With tools like Genius Search Agent and Social Agent, we can now efficiently target specific communities by leveraging localized content.
