The Fairview Futures brand has been my labor of love since October, 2018. I have personally taken on the many responsibilities associated with creating, building, and managing this brand. As such, the work represented in the following case study is only the tip of the iceberg. My responsibilities for this brand were vast and do not all make sense to include in this portfolio case study.
Business initiatives such as brand identity, social media marketing, SEO, online presence, marketing strategies, advertising strategies, lead nurturing methods, etc. will not be directly included in this case study.
