Partnership Proposal for Maple Manor & Comarkit

This partnership is designed to bring the same level of visibility to Wayne, Novi, and Howell and unify Maple Manor as a brand.

01

Wayne Facility

Full content coverage, staff interviews, and a dedicated video tour.

02

Novi Facility

Full content coverage, staff interviews, and a dedicated video tour.

03

Howell Facility

Full content coverage, an Open House shoot, and a dedicated video tour.

The cost of staying quiet

Maple Manor doesn't have a dedicated team whose job is to stay visible to the case managers and families deciding where a loved one goes next. Here's what that gap is actually worth.

~80%
National skilled nursing occupancy in 2026 — a 10-year high, and still roughly 1 in 5 beds empty industry-wide on any given day.
131
Skilled and rehab beds across Wayne and Novi today — before Howell adds more.
$127,750
What one of those beds costs Maple Manor if it sits empty for a year, at the Michigan skilled-nursing average rate.
One empty bed, one year
$127,750
Based on a ~$350/day average skilled-nursing rate in Michigan (CareScout / Genworth Cost of Care data).
VS
comarkit partnership
$120,000
Covers photography, video, social, events, the website, dedicated consultants — across all three locations.

Fill one bed that would have otherwise sat empty, for one year, and the partnership has already paid for itself — before counting the other 130.

Case managers and discharge planners send patients to the facility they know and trust — not necessarily the best one, just the most visible one at the moment a decision gets made. That's what the events, the content, and the referral relationships in this partnership are actually for. Right now, nobody at Maple Manor has that as their job. This partnership is that job.

Occupancy and cost figures are 2026 industry estimates (NIC MAP Vision, CareScout / Genworth Cost of Care Survey) shown for context. Maple Manor's own occupancy, payer mix, and per-diem revenue will differ by location and are not implied by these figures.

Why a website refresh

For a family searching for rehab care at 2am, the website is often the first and most important impression of Maple Manor, and a dated site can quietly undercut trust the care team has spent years earning in person. A modern redesign replaces that friction with clarity: one calm, confident page with a single clear next step — "Request an Admissions Call" or "Explore Programs" allowing anxious families and referring case managers alike know exactly what to do next.


Below are examples of our work both in-house for healthcare clients and event recaps that every sponsor receives after each event.

Tailored Brand & Event Recap Videography

Every event becomes more than a single day — it becomes a library of usable content. Recap photography styled to Maple Manor's own visual identity turns High Tea, Friendsgiving, and Gather & Grow into weeks of social posts, sponsor follow-ups, and proof points for the referral partners who weren't in the room.

Custom videos for Heritage Dialysis has 3x the engagement and visibility on their social platforms, which were mainly stock photography prior to us.

Our Pups, Pours, and Professionals event was targeted to over 150 nurse case managers to bring dedicated visibility to a niche group.

This Ribbon Cutting video we created for Optalis Bloomfield Hills has been reshared over 20x within 1 week of posting.

Event & On-Site Photography

This is a camera in the room when it counts — at a sponsor event, in the therapy gym, during a family's first tour. It replaces the generic stock photography every competitor uses with real staff, real spaces, and real moments, which is what actually builds trust with a family or case manager making a placement decision.

Social Media & Custom Graphic Design

Consistent posting and on-brand graphics keep Maple Manor visible in the months between events, not just during them. Every post, caption, and graphic carries the same look and voice, so referral partners and searching families recognize the name before they ever schedule a tour.

How it unfolds

Content work starts now — the event calendar and website build carry the partnership through January 2028.

A warm, seasonal gathering celebrating community and connection ahead of the holidays — fully produced and photographed.

A warm year-end send-off for the Maple Manor community, closing out the partnership's first full year.

Post-New Year's Celebration

An intimate in-house celebration welcoming the new year, with families and partners — the capstone on year one.
