THE OVERVIEW

Campaign Snapshot.

AutoNation Toyota wanted to expand market share in their Primary Market Area (PMA). Traditional conquest mailers were producing abysmal conversion rates and untrackable ROI.

⚠️ The Challenge

  • Losing local market share to competing tier-3 dealers
  • Traditional direct mail conquest was too expensive and untrackable
  • Needed a way to identify shoppers who were actively in-market
  • Strict Toyota OEM compliance requirements for all creative
  • Required definitive proof of ROI to justify ad spend

✅ Our Solution

  • Procured a proprietary list of active auto-intenders in the PMA
  • Filtered data for household income and credit pre-qualifications
  • Developed high-converting, Toyota-compliant email creative
  • Deployed multi-touch sequence highlighting local inventory advantages
  • Performed a closed-loop DMS matchback audit to verify every sale

HOW WE DID IT

Campaign Execution.

We didn't just blast emails. We executed a surgical, data-driven conquest strategy designed to intercept buyers before they walked into a competitor's showroom.

1

Conquest Data Procurement

Utilized proprietary third-party data to identify active auto-intenders within AutoNation Toyota's PMA, filtering out recent buyers and sub-prime credit.

2

Creative & OEM Compliance

Designed a custom, high-converting email template featuring aggressively priced lease offers, fully vetted through Toyota's strict tier-3 compliance portal.

3

Multi-Touch Deployment

Executed a targeted 3-part email sequence over a 45-day window to maintain top-of-mind awareness during the typical automotive buying cycle.

4

DMS Matchback Verification

Conducted a post-campaign audit, cross-referencing our send list against the dealership's DMS, verifying 42 exact VIN matches.

"Conquest marketing has always been a black box for us. AutoScope changed that. They didn't just talk about open rates — they handed us a spreadsheet with 42 matched VINs showing exactly who bought a car from their campaign. Incredible ROI."
