State of the Union · 90-Day Launch + Brand Identity

The Cypress Point progress tracker.

Where we are. What's underway. What happens next. Two workstreams are running in parallel — the 90-Day Launch marketing engine and a launch-grade brand identity. We're in the onboarding window now, with kickoff the week of June 15–20 and the launch weekend on September 4–5.

Kickoff set to the week of June 15–20

Kickoff is now a June 15–20 window rather than a single day, giving the team room to edit the videos following the first shoot.

Kickoff call held

Engagement scoped with the Cypress Point team. Strategy, timeline, and next steps captured.

The Journey

Eight phases. You are here.

Phase 01

Proposal & Sign-Off

Cypress Point approved the 90-Day Launch Marketing Engagement — four concurrent pillars staged across Foundation, Build, and Activate, all pointing at the launch event.

Done
Phase 02

Day-1 Authorization

The combined Day-1 authorization cleared: the Launch Foundation (Press & Publicity + Event Marketing) and the first month of Organic Social, with months two and three set to auto-bill. The whole program is funded and active.

Done
Phase 03

Onboard & Audit

We're here. Codifying the Cypress Point brand voice, gathering existing materials and imagery, lining up account access, and prepping the pixel and conversion tracking. This is the window that makes the first shoot count.

You Are Here In Progress
▸ You are here
Phase 04

Kickoff

The week of June 15–20. Strategy locked, calendar built, and the first on-site production day scheduled — a window that gives the team room to edit the videos after the shoot. The brand voice guide and content calendar go live and the engine starts turning.

Up Next · Jun 15–20
Phase 05

Foundation

First on-site production day at Cypress Point: heavily wooded lakefront capture, drone aerials over Bois d'Arc Lake, lifestyle photography, and cinematic reels. The custom landing page and branded Eventbrite go live, the pixel is installed, and Kristen Skladd writes and distributes the launch press release.

Upcoming
Phase 06

Acceleration

Paid media ramps across Meta, Google, and YouTube on the four-stage funnel (awareness, consideration, application, close). Bi-weekly on-site shoots feed weekly creative refreshes, organic cadence increases, and VIP and press invites land.

Upcoming
Phase 07

Activation

Paid spend ramps to peak. The final pre-event shoot wraps, the application form tightens against real RSVPs, and the sales team handoff is prepped. Everything is staged for launch day.

Upcoming
Phase 08

Launch & Optimize

The two-day launch event on September 4–5 (Friday and Saturday). Day-of capture across both days, then the post-event nurture sequence fires within 24 hours. We report on the full funnel and scope the transition to an ongoing retainer.

Engagement 01 · The 90-Day Launch

One launch. Four pillars working as one.

The first workstream. The 90-Day Launch runs four pillars at once — each one feeding the others. The shoot day fuels the paid funnel; the press push fills the event; the event proves the product. Here's the full structure underneath the launch.

Engagement 02 · The Brand Identity

A launch-grade brand book, built alongside the launch.

The second workstream. A complete, codified identity for Cypress Point — direction, type, color, symbols, and logo — so every touchpoint from the entry monument to the website walks, talks, and acts the same. Led by our in-house designer; delivered with usage guidance and the editable master files, two revision rounds on each.

Phase 01 · In progress

Brand Direction & Strategy

Positioning, brand attributes, a competitive and category read, moodboards, and one approved creative territory. Everything else is built on this — so we get your direction sign-off before a single mark is drawn.

Designer-ledUnderway
Phase 02 · Queued

Typography

A defined type system — display and text families, weights, and the pairing rules that keep every headline and paragraph on-brand.

Designer-ledAfter sign-off
Phase 03 · Queued

Color & Brand Kits

The palette of the place — primary, secondary, and accent color with usage rules, packaged into ready-to-use brand kits.

Phase 04 · Queued

Symbols

A cohesive symbol and iconography set for wayfinding, amenity signage, and the digital touchpoints across the community.

Phase 05 · Queued

Logo Development

The master logo suite — primary, stacked, and symbol lockups in full-color and single-color, sized to hold from a favicon to an entry monument.

Delivery & Master Files

Usage guidance plus the editable master files, yours outright on completion. Two rounds of revisions are included on every major deliverable.

HandoffFiles included
Scope: the brand identity only. The optional custom website add-on is not part of this engagement — this workstream is the brand book.
The Community

What we're marketing. A life on the water.

Cypress Point is a master-planned lakefront community on Bois d'Arc Lake — North Texas's newest major lake. Thirteen amenities, a heavily wooded shoreline, and a sense of place that sells itself once a buyer sees it. The whole campaign exists to put that in front of the right people.

The Setting

Bois d'Arc Lake

North Texas's newest major lake and a heavily wooded, secluded shoreline. The landscape is the hero of every shoot — drone aerials over the water, golden-hour lifestyle, and cinematic reels that make the place feel like a destination.

The Buyer

The DFW executive cohort

Geo- and income-targeted across the funnel: awareness through to a qualified application. The point of the event and the nurture flow is to filter for real buyers, not just RSVPs — so the sales team's time goes where it counts.

Waterfront & Nature
On the water

Dock, Pier & Boardwalk

A community dock, fishing pier, and lakeside boardwalk — the postcard shots that anchor the brand on the water.

Outdoors

Pond & Walking Trails

A stocked fishing pond and walking trails winding through the wooded landscape that defines the community.

Gathering

Outdoor Amphitheater

An open-air amphitheater for community events — a natural backdrop for launch-day programming.

Recreation & Sport
Racquet

Tennis & Pickleball

Tennis courts plus three dedicated pickleball courts — the amenity buyers ask about first right now.

Sand

Volleyball Courts

Two sand volleyball courts — active, social, and great on camera for the lifestyle reels.

Family

Parks & Playgrounds

Parks and playgrounds throughout the community — the family-life story that broadens the buyer pool.

Community Core
The hub

Cypress Point Clubhouse

The clubhouse is the social center of the community and a premium venue for VIP and launch-day moments.

Green space

Central Park

A central park at the heart of the plan — the connective green space the whole community is built around.

Landmark

Gazebo

A signature gazebo — a small landmark that makes the place instantly recognizable in content.

The Funnel

From a scroll to a signed lot.

A DFW executive sees a drone reel of the wooded shoreline on Instagram. A retargeting ad brings them back to the landing page. They read the press coverage and request more information. The application-style RSVP filters them in as a real buyer. They attend the launch event, walk the community, and meet the team. The post-event nurture closes the loop within 24 hours.

The Onboarding

Everything we gather before kickoff Monday.

What's outstanding before we shoot.

A short list stands between onboarding and a flawless first production day. Knocking these out this week keeps the June 15–20 kickoff and the first capture day on schedule.

Cypress Point · Approval

Approve the 90-Day Launch engagement

The proposal is signed off and the four-pillar program is locked. This is what set everything in motion.

Cypress Point · Authorization

Authorize the Day-1 launch foundation

The combined Day-1 authorization cleared — Launch Foundation plus the first month of Organic Social, with months two and three set to auto-bill. The program is funded.

Cypress Point · Brand

Share brand assets & existing imagery

Any existing logos, guidelines, color/fonts, and photography or renderings of the community. These ground both the brand identity work and give the edit room a head start before our first shoot.

Cypress Point · Brand Direction

Review & approve the brand direction

Phase 01 of the brand book ends in a direction sign-off — positioning, attributes, and one approved creative territory. Your approval here is the green light for our designer to build type, color, symbols, and the logo on top of it.

Cypress Point · Access

Grant social account & ad-account access

Admin access to the Cypress Point social profiles for cross-posting, plus the advertising account so we can install the pixel and stand up the paid funnel. Ad spend is billed by the platforms directly to Cypress Point.

Cypress Point · Domain

Confirm the domain & DNS for the landing page

Confirm the domain or subdomain the launch landing page should live on, and share DNS access so we can point it with a single record. No change to your root domain or email.

Cypress Point · Sales

Provide lot pricing & sales details for the funnel

Current lot availability, pricing tiers, and the sales process so the funnel and application form route qualified buyers straight to your team.

Cypress Point · Press

Confirm the spokesperson & press inputs

The name and title for an on-record quote, plus any milestones or facts to feature. Kristen Skladd needs these to write and place the launch press release through direct editor outreach.

Cypress Point · Event

Lock the launch event date, time & venue

Confirm the launch event details so we can build the branded Eventbrite and open the application-style RSVP flow. Current target: the September 4–5 launch weekend — confirm and we'll set it live.

Kickoff is this week. Let's launch Cypress Point.

The program is funded and the engine is warming up. Clear the short list above this week and we hit June 15–20 at a sprint — straight toward September 4–5.
