Commercial Launch

Turning an unmonetized category into a priced product — redesigning the consumer-facing view and building new package constructs from scratch.

01 / Problem Context

A fully-active category we had never monetized

Commercial listings (office, retail, warehousing) already generated organic lead volume with zero pricing or marketing investment behind them.

02 / Hypothesis

Commercial could be priced as a premium add-on, validated with a single-city pilot first

Commercial leads showed higher revenue density than residential. I hypothesized premium-priced SKUs would hold, and validated that through a single-city pilot before committing nationally.

03 / Solution

Rebuilt the consumer-facing view and the package construct from zero

Data-driven city selection across eight markets, an end-to-end redesign of the consumer-facing commercial view, and new premium package constructs layered on the existing Ultra / HE Pro tiers.

04 / Desired Outcome

Results

A category that generated zero direct revenue now stands as a proven, premium-priced product line.
