Cappella Digital Marketing Solutions

Cappella Digital Marketing Solutions (CDMS) was formed to provide non-profit senior living community operators with an affordable, customized option for digital marketing. As a service of Cappella Living Solutions, we bring years of non-profit senior living experience, passion and vision to our clients. We understand what makes non-profits unique and how to leverage it as an asset.

CDMS does not subscribe to the ‘If you build it they will come’ philosophy when it comes to websites. Websites are resources for prospects, lead-generation tools, and brand awareness builders. But nothing can be accomplished in a vacuum without regular maintenance and content updates. We don’t charge by the hour for regular updates and maintenance, and we review site performance metrics monthly.

Experience and Success in Senior Living Digital Marketing

We understand the need to hire an agency, sometimes you just don’t have the internal resources to devote to managing your Digital Marketing. Previous experience has taught us what makes an agency effective and what doesn’t. The most important element is the relationship between you and your agency. They must know what makes your organization great and how to translate that into messaging and content.

CDMS has successfully managed multiple non-profit communities, all with unique services, values, and demographics. Our portfolio ranges from full Life Plan communities to smaller Assisted Living or Memory Care only, from large urban neighborhoods to small rural communities. A cookie-cutter approach to the strategies for these communities would be a disservice. Once the marketing team at CDMS creates and executes a tailor-made strategy it is not uncommon for these communities to see a 100% increase in traffic to their websites in the first year.  But traffic is only one metric. What really matters is the quality of that traffic. We work to understand the demographic and what they need to become a qualified lead.

While this type of acknowledgment is important to us, hearing directly from a client that “now they feel like they have a real team behind them” is even more meaningful.
