Challenge
The challenge with any client in the vehicle sales industry is the competition. With numerous vehicle brands all selling similar vehicles at similar prices, with similar features, the difference between making the sale or not often comes down to reputation and good marketing. Volvo was in a unique position because of their lineup of vehicles and their distinct advantages; the issue, however, was that the local market either wasn’t thinking about their brand or didn’t understand the advantages it offers.
Strategy
With a focus on customer interaction, promotions, giveaways, contests, and posts with people’s faces in them, we were able to breath new life into this brand. From a sales perspective, we kept things nice and simple; in our opinion, there was a tendency to put too much information in posts, so by paring down on copy we were able to focus more on the product. Our strategy was also bolstered by radio and television advertising, which allowed us to tap into new markets for this brand.
Agencies that understand their users build more effective websites. With all of our websites, we take the time at the beginning to not just understand our clients, but to understand their clientele. As we look through competitor’s websites and understand our client’s goals, we can then begin to craft our navigation, a list of functionality, and a design that ties it all together. The end result is a website meets and exceeds client goals and user expectations.
