Results:
The project’s main feature was to find a paying audience that would interact with publications on social networks, leaving likes and comments under the publications and leaving an application on the site for a test drive or a commercial offer. For this, we emphasized live content and interesting facts about cars. It looked like the following:
For the DS premium brand, it was chosen to use only images provided by the manufacturer. Thus, we emphasized the status and exclusivity of cars of this line. Live content was used only for stories.
Developing the company page with trade-in services became an experimental direction for the brand. Our task was to show current models for sale, so photos and video car reviews made up all the content.
Among the main advertising goals, advertising to increase page subscribers, publication engagement, lead generation, traffic, and conversions on the site were the most effective.
Before the start of the advertising campaigns, tracking codes were installed on the website for the Get a Commercial Offer and Sign Up for a Test Drive forms. This made it possible to optimize the advertising campaign not only for traffic to the site but also for obtaining conversions. For more detailed targeting, audiences of users based on interests with restrictions on payment capacity were created. We also formed Look-a-like audiences based on site visitors, interactions with publications, and subscribers to the business page.
The following combinations were used as advertising creatives: banner + text, video + text with a button, and a call to take a targeted action.
As a result of the promotion, we increased brand loyalty on social networks and increased the engagement rate of posts and the number of contacts in Messenger and Direct Instagram. Many comments with questions about the brand appeared, and users began to communicate with each other under publications, share advice and experience, argue, register for test drives, and ask for commercial offers to buy cars.
We also managed to popularize the offline market, which is located on the territory of the salon. Subscribers were interested in products with the logos of their favorite car brands and left applications for purchasing goods through messengers.

Promoting a car dealership on the Internet is a challenging task. High competition between car dealers and the need to convey information to the buyer prompts car dealerships to pay much attention to the Internet segment.
Well-constructed communication with the client is the main success factor. We conveyed information about discounts, opportunities, and salon offers, which made it possible to evaluate the service objectively, sign up for a test drive, or visit a store without any problems. It was easy and as accessible to the user as possible.
