Complete Health – Scalable Lead Generation with AI-Powered ROI Tracking

The Challenge

Complete Health, a rapidly growing Jacksonville-based healthcare organization, needed a marketing strategy that could scale alongside its expansion—from 3 locations in 2019 to 39 practices nationwide by 2025. Key hurdles included:

  • Fragmented patient data across multiple Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems, making ROI tracking nearly impossible.
  • Consistent brand & lead generation for new practice acquisitions in competitive markets.
  • Adapting to digital shifts, including post-pandemic patient behavior changes.

  2. Future-Proof Performance Tracking
    • Partnered with an AI development firm to unify disparate EMR data, enabling:
      • Real-time ROI attribution for every tactic (digital ads, SEO, direct mail).

RYAM – Strategic Rebranding for a Global Cellulose Leader

The Challenge

RYAM (formerly Rayonier Advanced Materials), an international cellulose specialties manufacturer, faced two pivotal moments requiring brand evolution:

  1. Corporate Restructuring (2014): Needed a distinct identity after spinning off from Rayonier (NYSE: RAY).
  2. Global Expansion (2022): Required modernization post-Tembec acquisition, with assets in French and English for North American/European markets.

The Solution

BroadBased executed two future-proof rebrands, focusing on:

  1. Modular Brand Architecture
    • Developed scalable logos and guidelines adaptable to mergers (e.g., Tembec integration) and market shifts.
    • Bilingual assets (French/English) ensured consistency across 3 countries.
  2. Storytelling Beyond Aesthetics
    • Internal Comms: Aligned employees post-split (2014) and post-acquisition (2017) through culture-driven messaging.
    • Investor Relations: Positioned RYAM’s innovation in cellulose specialties via video and digital assets.
  3. Data-Driven Evolution
    • 2022 rebrand retained equity from 2014 identity while modernizing for ESG-focused audiences—critical for industrial sectors.

The Results

Rebrands That Endured Industry Shifts:

  • 2014–2022: Seamless transition from Rayonier Advanced Materials to RYAM, maintaining stakeholder trust through structural changes.
  • Global Compliance: 100% bilingual materials eliminated friction in Canadian/French operations post-Tembec acquisition.

Strategic Impact:

  • Supported RYAM’s growth as a publicly traded leader (NYSE: RYAM).
  • Videos and employer branding assets reduced hiring cycles by 30% (per internal data).
