WHAT WE DO FOR AUTOMOTIVE
3. 3
Challenge #1
Deals are closed in the showroom,
not on your website.
How do you turn website visitors into
showroom visitors and generate more
test drives?
?
?
4. 4
Challenge #2
Prospects may visit your showroom
without talking to a sales person.
How do you reach out to these prospects
after they left ??
?
5. 5
The Solution
An app around your brand and your dealers allows you to turn website visitors into showroom visitors and to
“retarget” prospects in the physical world.
The app bridges the gap between the
online world and the physical world.

Step 1
Website visitor builds ideal car with your car configurator. User can easily save his ideal
car to the smartphone, by installing the app.
Target users who would otherwise leave your website without leaving contact details
“Put your future car in your pocket”
Compelling reason for user to install app:
Show it to friends
Keep it close with you
Revisit your selected car options
Use as checklist in showroom

Step 2
User receives “push messages” on his
phone, at the right place & time, to invite
him into the showroom.
Behind the scenes
App gathers lots of information about
user: interests, location, activity... Based
on all this data, the optimal place & time
is defined to reach out to user.
