Dynasty Restoration

Yacht restoration and refurbishment is an art form. Owners take tremendous pride in their yachts, including interior design and furnishings second to none. Captains are the ones who choose to restore or refurbish yachts for owners. It could be their yacht or part of a contractual requirement. Whatever the reason, Dynasty Restoration has earned a distinctive reputation for its meticulous work on some of the world's most highly valued yachts.

The Ask

Restoring the luxurious interiors of yachts calls for highly skilled artisans with vision. Dynasty Restoration built its reputation serving mega-vessels throughout South Florida’s most prestigious shipyards. But founder, Orna Miller, sought new ideas to build her brand and her business.

The Work

Merton Way dove into Dynasty’s data, customer lists and the marine industry market. Studying competitors and interviewing captains and yacht owners, new opportunities and niches were uncovered.

Brainstorming with Ms. Miller, Merton Way modeled a 5-year business plan that featured new lines of services. The plan included how to launch, staff and scale them.

The Win

Next, Merton Way re-branded Dynasty with a new logo and website. The services were expanded with copy mapped to more keywords and better descriptions. By incorporating the market research, Dynasty’s new site and messaging supported how its sales could spread the word to shipyards throughout South Florida.

Celebrating a decade in business, Dynasty Restoration is thriving as it scales and expands.

The agency also decreased marketing spend by $1.3 million...meaning, our agency is in the business of more efficient revenue production.

Visitors to 29 Palms are very different than those bound for Palm Springs. Both typically attract Californians. But their demographics could not be more different. Camo vs. cabanas. Beer vs. espresso martinis. 29 Palms needed to send a clear message of astonishing landscapes and an “old California” vibe.

Roasting in small batches, Gold Coffee sources from hand-selected farms and relies on the expertise of roast masters rather than automated equipment. Batch roasting gives Gold Coffee a distinct aromatic profile. The taste of each varietal is determined by the microclimate in which it is grown and the intensity of the roast. There's so many brands out there making claims. How do we share Gold's nuances with consumers?
