The Place

Heavily wooded. Lakefront. Two parcels worth telling a story about.

Cypress Point sits on Bois d'Arc Lake with a primary lakefront parcel and a complementary inland community. The site plan below is the canvas. Our marketing turns it into the North Texas lake address in the affluent DFW imagination.

The Opportunity

A once-in-a-region moment, staged not sold.

Cypress Point isn't another DFW exurb development. Heavily wooded, lakefront, amenity-rich lots between $300K and $1.2M place it in the rare air of true destination communities. Places people don't buy into. They arrive at. Bois d'Arc Lake gives North Texas its first credible answer to that category, and Cypress Point is the address that defines it.

The hard part isn't the inventory. The hard part is the perception. North Texas's affluent buyer pool, the DFW executives, surgeons, founders, and family-office principals, has never been told they can have that kind of place 45 minutes from home. Our job is to tell them, then bring them to a buying event that feels like an arrival, not a sales floor.

"We're not running ads for lots. We're staging the launch of a place, and a moment buyers will tell their friends they were there for."

This proposal lays out the four pillars that drive the launch: organic content production and social management, paid media, press and publicity, and event activation. Each is delivered in the format Nativz has refined across its content engagements.

How We Win

Four pillars, one coordinated launch.

Each pillar runs in parallel from kickoff through event day, with one accountable lead at Nativz and a clear deliverable cadence. After the launch buying event, the engagement transitions into an ongoing retainer.

Pillar 01

Organic Social & Content Production

The visual identity of Cypress Point, captured, edited, and published by Nativz. Drone, on-site shoots, lifestyle reels, and the tone-of-voice that signals "destination community," not "subdivision."

Pillar 02

Paid Media Management

A 90-day, ramped paid spend across Meta and Google, geo-fenced and income-targeted to the high-affluence DFW corridor. Spend escalates each month toward event day.

Pillar 03

Press & Publicity

A press release written, distributed, and personally pitched by Kristen Skladd, senior publicist with 20+ years of media relationships and direct outreach to publication editors.

Pillar 04

Eventbrite × Landing Page

A buying event that reads like an invitation, not an open house. Custom landing page, application-style RSVP, day-of orchestration, and a follow-through funnel that converts attendees into closed lots.

Our Work

Three reels Nativz already shot in residential real estate.

The visual language we'd bring to Cypress Point isn't theoretical. Below are three pieces from recent residential engagements, the kind of cinematic, place-driven storytelling that makes a development feel like an arrival.

01
Residential Reel
Place-driven cinematic storytelling for a residential listing.
02
Residential Reel
Lifestyle and architecture, paced for social.
03
Residential Reel
Drone, interior, and lifestyle in a single arc.

Featured · Motion Graphics × Drone

Deep Ellum

A motion-graphics-led, drone-driven place piece. The directorial register we'd bring to a Cypress Point hero film, lake aerials cut against typographic moments, scored to feel like an arrival.

Pillar Two 02

Paid Media Ads Management

Where organic builds the brand, paid drives the buying event. We segment the DFW affluence pool by ZIP, household income, and lifestyle indicators, then sequence them through a four-stage funnel from cold awareness to RSVP. Spend ramps each month so the heaviest weight lands closest to event day.

  • Geo and income targeting
  • 4-stage funnel architecture
  • Creative concepts
Ongoing Management
  • Meta (Facebook + Instagram)

  • Weekly creative refresh
Reporting
  • Real-time dashboard access
  • Bi-weekly optimization report
  • Cost-per-RSVP KPIs
  • Attribution diagnostics
  • Post-event deconstruction

Pillar Four 04

Eventbrite × Landing Page Marketing

The buying event is the proposal's center of gravity. Everything else exists to bring the right 200 people to it. This pillar covers the digital architecture: an application-style RSVP that filters tire-kickers, a landing page that reads like a brand book, and a follow-through sequence that turns RSVP into attendance into showing into close.

  • Cinematic hero video
  • Interactive site plan + lot inquiry
  • RSVP + qualification form
  • Mobile-first, SEO-optimized
  • Hosted on Netlify (CDN-fast)

  • Tiered RSVP (general, VIP, press)
  • Qualification questions
  • Confirmation + reminder emails
  • Calendar integration

Next Steps

Cypress Point only opens once.

The buying event isn't a milestone. It's the brand. We'd like 30 minutes to walk through this proposal, refine pricing where it needs refining, and lock kickoff so we can begin the foundation phase before the runway compresses.
