Tom von Heijne​

Creative Director & Marketing Leader

Creative & Strategic Vision | Operational Excellence​

I’m a brand creative leader who builds ideas that don’t just look good…they perform, scale, and move businesses forward.

At my core, I’m a brand storyteller across every meaningful medium - digital, social, experiential, broadcast, and OTT - developing creative systems that connect emotionally with audiences while delivering against real business objectives. I’ve built and evolved brands across industries, with deep expertise in real estate data and a proven track record with consumer and entertainment brands, including Homes.com, Apartments.com, MotorTrend, GEICO, HGTV, Investigation Discovery, Top Gear, and Kevin Hart properties.

​

Most recently, I built and scaled Homes.com’s internal video organization from the ground up, recruiting 10+ creatives and increasing output by over 500% in two years. I was brought in to elevate the brand’s storytelling, transforming underperforming testimonial campaigns into the “Defining Moments” platform, a more cinematic, human approach that resonated with audiences and drove results. I’ve also worked directly with C-suite leadership on the Homes AI campaign, helping define how complex product innovation translates into clear, compelling brand storytelling.

I’m also a leader in AI-driven production, developing innovative workflows and content across emerging tools to unlock speed, scale, and new creative possibilities. I’ve produced AI-powered work for Homes.com internal pitches and concept development, as well as public-facing promotional content for ONX Sports, pushing the boundaries of what brands can create in high volume without traditional constraints.

I’m known for creating award-winning work (20+ awards for creative excellence)—but what differentiates me is how I balance creative ambition with strategic rigor. Every piece of work is designed to serve a purpose: drive awareness, increase engagement, or directly impact revenue. And I bring the same intensity to how the work gets made.

​

I’m a hawk when it comes to production efficiency. I stretch every dollar, build smarter systems, and scale output without sacrificing quality:

  • +500% creative output at Homes.com

  • +325% expansion of deliverables at MotorTrend, alongside +700% subscription growth

  • +2000% increase in creative output at Aggie

  • Scaled ONX Sports from 0 to 200+ deliverables per month as part-time Executive Creative Director

  • ​

That efficiency translates directly into business impact:

  • +20% sales growth at Homes.com (2025)

  • +60% sales growth in 3 months at ONX Sports

  • Multiple ratings and viewership records across entertainment brands

  • ​

I’ve built hundreds of brands and campaigns over my career, but the throughline is consistent: I create work that earns attention, builds trust, and delivers results - while building the systems and teams that allow that level of creative to scale.

​

This is what I do

I always bring my A-game
