The Approach

Marketing that doesn't lie.

Most property marketing oversells what's there.

Stretches a view. Crops out the neighbour.

We don't.

We show the land as it is.

The wide horizon. The unfinished fence. The morning light.

Because the buyer coming to a 100-acre rural lot is not the buyer you fool with a photoshop sky.

Honest footage converts higher. Every time.

Estimate only. Not a prediction.

This tool shows general estimates based on assumptions and the inputs you provide. It is not financial, investment, or lending advice, not a loan approval, and not a guarantee of performance or borrowing capacity.

Only a licensed lender or mortgage broker can assess your eligibility for finance. Speak to a broker, financial advisor, or accountant before making any decision.

"If you fail to plan. You plan to fail."

Over 40 years in the property Development and sales business, Matt Steinhour has refined a criteria for successful marketing and the milestones that need to be achieved to pay the banks back and return a profit.

We have taken all this logic, and thinking and learning and built an engine around it. We call it The Engine.

Like any engine, it needs to be lubricated and tuned.

Before we market your Development,
we determine if it should launch.

Most Developments fail for three reasons: Price, Position, and Promotion.

This is a strategic estimate, not a formal quote.

Change — regional lake

Production

Real rooms. Real roads. Real light.

Our production unit lives on the land we shoot.

A truck. A drone. A crew of three.

No studio. No stock footage. No fake sky replacements.

Just the place.

Authenticity isn't a style — it's our baseline.

01 — What We Are Doing

Each property is its own campaign. Not a listing.

We are creating a bespoke, end-to-end marketing system for individual investment land and property opportunities across regional Queensland — including Toowoomba, Warwick, Crows Nest and beyond.

The system combines on-site field production, narrative creative development, video, photography and written assets, a dedicated conversion landing page, a professionally written property memorandum, print and digital collateral, targeted media distribution, human-led lead qualification, and monthly reporting and campaign refinement.

The system includes:

  • On-site field production
  • Narrative creative development
  • Video, photography & written assets
  • Dedicated conversion landing page
  • Property memorandum
  • Print and digital collateral
  • Targeted media distribution
  • Human-led lead qualification
  • Monthly reporting & refinement

02 — Why This Way

The problem with traditional property marketing

Most campaigns:

  • Push people into browsing behaviour
  • Rely on templated listings and generic copy
  • Hand leads to impersonal automation or offshore call centres
  • Measure success by clicks rather than conversations

Our response:

  • We remove distractions
  • We replace automation with human follow-up
  • We tell the truth about the land
  • We position Matt as a guide, not a salesman

This creates a filter, not a funnel.

03 — How This Is Different

Three principles that change everything

Narrative Over Listings

We don't just show what the land is — we explain why people buy in this region, what makes it suitable and unsuitable, and what brochures and portals usually leave out.

Each property has a clear narrative position in the market.

The lifestyle
Blue skies

One Page, One Purpose — ipqld.land

All campaigns drive enquiries to a single conversion page. No listings, no comparisons, no competing messages.

ipqld.land exists to establish who you are dealing with, set expectations for a direct human conversation, and capture contact details so that conversation can happen.

Properties are discussed after contact is made, not before.

Human Qualification, Not Bots

All enquiries are handled personally by Linda. No AI calls. No automated "human-sounding" messages. No offshore call centres.

Every lead becomes a real conversation.

04 — What Each Campaign Includes

Structured framework, tailored to each site

The process begins with a positioning brief from Matt / the client.

A

Site Visit & Field Immersion

2–3 days on location
  • Site inspection and location scouting
  • Video and photographic capture (drone and land-based)
  • Surrounds, access, and town context
  • Ground-truth understanding before creative development

Day 1: Arrive for sunset. Day 2: First light to last light. Day 3: Pick-ups and return.

B

Creative Development & Strategy

  • Narrative positioning
  • Key messages and exclusions ("who this is not for")
  • Video structure and tone
  • Visual direction, scripts, and mood boards
  • Distribution logic by platform
  • Call-to-action strategy

This forms the intellectual backbone of the campaign.

C

Production (Video & Photography)

  • Narrative-led video capture (drone and land)
  • Still photography for digital and print
  • Direction and sequencing
  • Assembly edits during shoot days

10-hour production days (first light to last light).

D

Post-Production & Finishing

  • Music, voice-over, and final edits
  • Colour grading and sound polish
  • Multiple versions for different platforms
  • Image selection, grading, and formatting

Deliverables: Master film (3:30–6:30), 90s teaser, 30s teaser, 15s teaser, 30–40 Instagram-ready photographs.

E

Landing Page Build

  • Design and build of dedicated landing page
  • Clear narrative flow
  • Lead capture form
  • UTM tracking integration
  • Mobile-first optimisation

Intentionally simple and conversion-focused.

F

Property Memorandum

  • Integrated photography

Supports Linda's conversations and provides substance post-call.

G

Design & Print Collateral

Supports inspections, follow-ups, and offline conversations.

H

Media Distribution

  • RealEstate.com.au (REA)
  • YouTube

All media directs traffic back to the conversion landing page, not to listings.

09 — Outdoor Advertising

Physical-world presence and legitimacy

Outdoor does not explain — it anchors. "This is real. This is established. This is worth considering."

Key Highway Corridors

Queensland

  • Brisbane → Toowoomba (Warrego)
  • Brisbane → Warwick (Cunningham)
  • Brisbane → Sunshine Coast
  • Brisbane → Gold Coast

Interstate

  • Sydney → Brisbane (Pacific / M1)
  • Melbourne → Sydney (Hume)
  • Melbourne → Brisbane

$9,000 – $18,000

1–2 regional billboards, 4–8 weeks

Flagship

$21,000 – $52,000+

2–4 billboards, multiple corridors, 8–12 weeks

10 — Radio

Sound familiar. Sound credible. Be remembered.

Radio is intimate, habitual, and trusted — particularly outside metro centres. Its strength is mental availability, not explanation.

Standard — Quarterly

$6,500 – $13,000

One 4–6 week burst, regional focus

Flagship — Quarterly

$11,500 – $28,000

Multiple bursts, regional + metro outbound

11 — Cinema

Undivided attention in a premium environment

Cinema is not about reach. It is about impact and legitimacy. "This is established. This is credible. This is worth attention."

Standard — Quarterly

$7,000 – $14,000

One 4-week cinema run, regional focus

Flagship — Quarterly

$13,000 – $27,000+

Multiple locations, extended runs

12 — Google Search & Display

Capture intent, not clicks

Google captures explicit intent. It reaches people who are already researching, comparing, and looking for clarity before making contact.

Google Search (Primary)

  • Regional investment land searches
  • Industrial / logistics land
  • "Over the ranges" queries
  • Brand searches (IPQLD, Matt Steinhour)

Google Display (Retargeting Only)

  • Website visitors
  • YouTube viewers
  • Instagram / Facebook warm audiences
  • Reinforces recognition and recall

Standard — Quarterly

$1,800 – $3,600

$20–$40/day

Flagship — Quarterly

$3,600 – $6,750+

$40–$75+/day

13 — UTM Tracking & Attribution

Attribution, not surveillance

No personal data is captured. No behaviour is automated. UTMs give us a clear, ethical way to understand what's working.

What UTMs allow us to report on:

Enquiries by channel
Enquiries by campaign
Enquiries by creative
Assisted conversions
Cost per enquiry by source
Channel shifts over time

UTMs support decisions — they do not make them.

14 — Why Notion

The thinking layer

The most important information in this system is not the metrics — it's the thinking behind the decisions.

Holds the whole story

Each client's Notion space becomes a campaign memory — what launched, what worked, what was adjusted, what buyers actually said.

Quantitative + qualitative

UTM reports and lead counts sit next to Linda's call notes and buyer sentiment. That's where real insight lives.

Supports judgment

Does not auto-optimise. Does not chase vanity metrics. Gives humans a clear surface to decide better.

Scales cleanly

Each client gets their own workspace. No learning resets to zero. Patterns emerge across projects.

Data informs. Humans decide.

15 — The IronBark Model

90 days. Three phases. One outcome.

This system is designed to produce clarity, not activity.

Day 1–30

Production + Authority

On-site shoot. Content production. Brand authority established. The market starts to hear the name before a single lot is listed.

Day 31–60

Launch + Takeoff

Media goes live. Paid and organic across all channels. Landing page active. Pony is on the phone. Leads are flowing.

Day 61–90

Acceleration + Decision

Data refines the campaign. Budget shifts to what's working. Conversion intensifies. The sell-out window opens.

The IronBark

Got a development that needs to move?

Talk to Pony and Matt. No pitch decks. No fluff. Just a conversation about what's possible.
