About Discovery Commons Senior Living

Discovery Commons is the approachable mid tier sister brand to the luxury Discovery Village, featuring 7 senior living communities primarily located in Florida, Virginia, and Maryland. As a core part of the Discovery Senior Living corporate family, the brand offers independent living, compassionate assisted living, and highly secure memory care, all set within welcoming, community focused environments. Operating within the competitive healthcare and senior living sector, they are known for providing high quality clinical care, approachable and active lifestyles, and a strong emphasis on daily resident engagement.

Challenge

Discovery Commons needed to compete in crowded, saturated local senior living markets while operating on a very lean, strict advertising budget, which meant every single marketing dollar had to work significantly harder to generate a return. Their local competitors included both large, well funded national brands and deeply entrenched, smaller independent local operators, making it difficult to clearly differentiate their brand online. The challenge was building sharp, hyper local SEO and highly efficient, low cost paid search campaigns while simultaneously keeping all landing pages optimized to successfully convert highly qualified family caregivers into booked physical tours. Because generating highly qualified local leads at a strictly efficient cost was essential to sustaining their growth, SmartSites engineered a highly rigorous, results oriented digital strategy designed specifically to address each budget challenge directly.
