01 — THE CHALLENGE
Growing Beyond a Vendor Relationship to Build a Recognized Regional Brand
Corum Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning needed more than a marketing agency. As the
company pursued aggressive growth goals, they were looking for a strategic partner who
could help elevate their brand, increase market visibility, and position them as one of the
leading plumbing and HVAC providers in the Kansas City metro. They needed a marketing
team that understood their business, could adapt as they scaled, and would serve as an
extension of their organization rather than simply executing marketing tasks. As they
evaluated different approaches and partners, it became increasingly important to find a
team capable of supporting long-term growth while building a brand that homeowners
throughout the region would recognize and trust.
02 — OUR APPROACH
Building a Brand, Not Just Generating Leads
From the beginning, we recognized that Corum Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning was
different. Caleb and his leadership team weren’t interested in blending in with the
competition. They had a clear vision of creating a premium, professional brand experience
that reflected the quality of service their customers received, from technician uniforms and
wrapped vehicles to their digital presence and advertising.
Rather than focusing solely on lead generation, we developed a brand-first marketing
strategy designed to increase recognition and trust throughout the Kansas City metro.
Leveraging Corum’s distinctive purple branding, we introduced the “Purple Reign” concept,
creating a memorable platform that connected the company to Kansas City’s culture while
reinforcing its position as a market leader in plumbing and HVAC services.
Our team worked to ensure consistency across every customer touchpoint, including
website design, social media, advertising, direct mail, vehicle graphics, photography, video
content, and brand messaging. By creating a cohesive identity and clear market positioning,
we helped Corum build more than awareness. We helped establish a brand that homeowners would
recognize, remember, and trust when they needed plumbing or HVAC services.

06 — THE PARTNERSHIP
More Than a Vendor, An Extension of Our Team
"At Corum, there are only a handful of partners we truly consider an extension of our team, and J29 Creative Group is one of them. They've played a significant role in our growth and have helped us build a stronger brand throughout the Kansas City market.
— Caleb Corum, Owner
We've worked with other marketing companies in the past, and the difference is night and day. Those experiences cost us time, money, and opportunities without delivering meaningful results. With J29, we have a partner that understands our business, shares our vision, and consistently delivers value. Looking back, we'll never make that mistake again."
Corum Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning wanted more than a marketing vendor. They
needed a strategic partner to help grow their brand, increase visibility, and support long-
term growth.
Through cohesive branding, targeted marketing campaigns, and the “Purple Reign”
platform, J29 helped generate more than 460 qualified leads while strengthening Corum’s
position as a trusted plumbing and HVAC provider in the Kansas City metro.
