[Case Study] Pacific Private Money Website Redesign

Pacific Private Money is a private money lender and investment fund specializing in real estate-backed loans for California borrowers. Founded in 2008, they have since funded over 1,200 loans totalling over $350M while continually delivering with speed and reliability.

They faced a problem: Their outdated PPM website did not address the needs of its two target audiences.

Lightmark started from the ground up with the redesign project, developing SEO and UX details from the back end that would maximize PPM’s search rankings and conversions.

In addition, their website was designed to be fully optimized for mobile and tablet users.

Most importantly, Lightmark began drafting clear, articulate messaging toward their target audiences.

Due to their expertise in real estate, Lightmark was able to accurately communicate why PPM is the premier source for non-conventional financing to borrowers and an accredited investment option for investors.

As a result, PPM witnessed an increase in both unique visitors and website conversions on a percentage basis compared to prior time periods. This is because their website was now more easily accessible and faster than ever.

Converting website visitors to clients has always been a goal of PPM and now with Lightmark’s help, they are attracting more investors and borrowers to their site who are becoming PPM customers.

Penn Capital, a Philadelphia-based private equity firm, successfully raised $6.5M from Accredited Investors to acquire Creekside Athens, a 98-unit multifamily property in Huntsville, AL, despite economic uncertainty.

The challenge involved generating new Accredited Investor leads through various platforms and nurturing these connections to secure investments.

To overcome this, a nationwide marketing campaign was launched by Lightmark Media, targeting Accredited Investors through:

-Paid advertising on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Google
-Email and SMS marketing campaigns
-Long-form articles and organic social media content

Lightmark’s campaign emphasized the capital-protective aspects of the acquisition while highlighting the potential for attractive returns. This approach generated over 200 new Accredited Investor leads.

Relationship-building efforts included:

-Regular updates
-Educational and inspirational emails and texts
-Interactive webinars

These strategies successfully brought in $6.5M of Accredited Investor capital, enabling Penn Capital to complete the acquisition as scheduled.

If you’re raising capital, there are “four conversions” that have to happen before an investor wires you funds.

Let’s focus on the first one: Stock Market > Alts

Traditional investors who focus solely on public markets may be unaware of or not interested in the opportunities and benefits of alts like real estate.

According to Lance Pederson, our partner in 10XYCR, part of your job as a sponsor is to take them from “ignorant” to “enlightened,” and it starts here.

If you do your job well, a mental shift or “conversion” will happen when a potential investor realizes that alternative investments can help them achieve financial goals (and that traditional investments alone can’t).

Helping investors “convert” to believing in the power of alts is a great way to open the door to future conversations about specific alternative investing strategies, best practices for executing them, and even specific investment opportunities.

All businesses should be easy to find online.

If it isn’t, then essentially it doesn’t exist.

Consider this example…

Our client PPR Capital Management offers investment opportunities to accredited investors.

What happens if someone hears PPR’s name mentioned on a podcast and wants to learn more about them?

PPR needs to be easily found online for that investor.

In fact, searching for their name ideally results in most of the search engine results on the first page showing something about the company. Think website (of course) but also social media pages, YouTube videos, BBB listings and so on.

There are two essential ways you can increase findability:

1. It’s 2025, y’all. Anyone in business is expected to have a good (if not great) website that shows up when someone types the name of your business

2. Ditto for social media business pages. You don’t necessarily need to be active on social media (though we highly recommend it,) but you need to at least have a profile on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.

Search “PPR Capital Management” online for yourself, and you’ll see
that their business checks these boxes.

So how does your business show up?

“The medium is the message” - Marshall McLuhan

Or, in 2025, the media DETERMINES the message.

The video featured on your website is going to look much different from the video you feature on your social media.

For example, when someone clicks "play" on your About page, they've already shown intent.

They want to know you.

This permits longer shots, fewer cuts, and a more measured pace that builds connection rather than capturing fleeting attention.

What many don’t realize is that the same raw footage can serve you on both your website and social media through strategic editing.

Take a look at our work with Kevin and Brian from Sunrise Capital Investors.

Sunrise’s masterclass on mobile home investing uses steady, authoritative shots that build trust and expertise.

If you take a look at their socials, however, you’ll see that this same content features rapid visual changes that capture scrollers and make them pause on their content.

You don’t need to change your message when executing it throughout different mediums, but the delivery must adapt to where it lives.

In today's capital-raising environment, the "hype man" approach doesn’t work.

What's needed in 2025 is a risk manager mindset.

So what exactly do we mean by that?

As Lance Pederson, our partner at 10xYourCapitalRaise, says, investors are more skeptical than ever of opportunities that seem too good to be true.

Rather than hyping high returns and equity multiples, talk more about how your investing strategy protects the downside and still yields a reasonable risk-adjusted return.

Do that, and investors will lean in.
