Riverview Landscapes
Building a Scalable Marketing System for a 17-Branch Commercial Landscaping Platform
Riverview Landscapes is a Commercial Landscaping platform—a holding company acquiring and integrating regional brands under a centralized structure for marketing, operations, and recruiting.
They needed a platform-ready system that could deliver centralized strategy, brand consistency, and HoldCo-level performance oversight—while still empowering branch-level execution with local credibility and control.
Halstead architected the marketing infrastructure behind that transformation, drawing on deep commercial expertise to design a framework that powers recruitment marketing, local lead generation, and brand consistency across 17 locations.
The Project Scope
Halstead partnered with Riverview’s leadership to operationalize a platform-wide commercial marketing framework, creating a centralized system built to support rapid expansion and consistent execution across all branches.
This wasn’t a marketing refresh—it was the creation of a platform-wide system built to integrate new acquisitions, maintain brand control, and power continued growth at scale.
Key Initiatives:
Platform Integration: Unified 17 acquired brands under one commercial identity using a shared system of messaging, positioning, and digital infrastructure.
Branch Enablement: Expanded SEO coverage and digital presence across 17+ locations—ensuring branch-level visibility within a platform-wide strategy.
Scalable Web Architecture: Designed and launched a multi-branch website built to easily onboard future acquisitions.
Unified Brand Rollout: Activated the Riverview identity across digital, print, and field materials to maintain brand alignment from awareness to proposal.
Sales Enablement System: Equipped local teams with consistent, on-brand collateral using a shared creative library to ensure brand control across the HoldCo structure.
