NO FAIR NO FEES Marketing Campaign Urbane Lab Project #061309

At the suggestion of the ApartmentExpert, Lisa Trosien, we have embarked on a summer Marketing Campaign, No Fair No Fees, mocked after Southwest Airlines 'Freedom From Fees' Policy. We have a pretty different approach at Urbane Apartments, so this seemed like an excellent opportunity to showcase that. To be fair here, what emerged may not even be what Lisa originally envisioned, as this spurred over a Twitter conversation, and never got past that. You can sometimes only garner so much from 140 charters!

Lets Poke at the Competition
We basically just listed out what we thought the differences were between us and the other guys and listed that up on the Home Page of our Web Site
