JDPR will advise Greenville-based lending firm on marketing communication initiatives in the midst of the company’s rapid growth.
GREENVILLE, S.C. — Lima One Capital, which specializes in hard money lending for residential real estate investors, has announced that Greenville-based Jeff Dezen Public Relations (JDPR) will serve as its PR agency of record. JDPR is tasked with providing guidance on internal and external messaging, strategic planning, social media development and national-level media relations.
Former Marine Corps officer John Warren started Lima One Capital in 2010 after serving two tours of duty in Iraq and the Middle East. Currently operating in South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia, Lima One is in the midst of a multi-market expansion to nine additional states and the District of Columbia. This growth reflects Lima One’s national-level recognition as the premier hard money lender. In three years, Lima One has ascended to the position of the largest, private hard money lender in the Southeast. Warren also recently participated in the selling of over 1,400 rental properties in Atlanta to Blackstone Group, a deal worth over $100 million.
“My team is confident in JDPR’s ability to align our communication strategy with the standard of excellence that has made Lima One Capital successful, and to assist in maintaining a strong growth trajectory,” said Warren, Lima One’s president and founder. “JDPR’s established credentials in marketing communications, social media know-how and national and regional media relations will bolster the Lima One brand story— our company is a true American success story and we are working to drive the revitalization of American homes in the wake of the Great Recession.”
According to Jeff Dezen, president and founder of JDPR, “My company loves working with brands like Lima One Capital. Just a few years ago, John Warren was commanding troops on the battlefields of Iraq, and he’s used that experience to establish Lima One as a leader in innovation in the financial services industry. Lima One is a home-grown success story.”
