Government Industry Partners - GovCon Wealth - GROW: Building a Sellable GovC...
Column case study
1. HATCH DESIGN GROUP
Building
On Success
THE CHALLENGE:
Column Financial, the commer-
cial mortgage division of Credit
Suisse, is one of it’s most
profitable sub-brands, having
closed more than 8,300 mort-
gage loans totalling over $86
billion. Leveraging on the
strength of it’s parent company,
Credit Suisse, Column faced the
challenge of repositioning itself
as a one-stop, innovative
provider of real estate financing.
THE SOLUTION:
Hatch distinguished Column
Financial from the rest of the
highly competitive market by
developing a branded, integrat-
ed communications program.
Starting with a new corporate
logo and printed collateral
materials (Fig. 1-2), Hatch brand-
ed Column with the tagline
“A Unique Perspective on
Real Estate Finance” to
emphasize the company’s
industry-leading expertise.
We then empowered its
sales force with customiz-
able presentations (Fig. 3)
and targeted potential bor-
rowers with advertisements
featuring Column’s diverse
loan offerings (Fig. 4). For
conventions in both the
U.S. and Canada, Hatch
produced trade show
booths to further promote
the Column brand. (Fig. 5).
