Social Ad Strategy In Action:
Showcasing Silverados Campaign
The Challenge
DELLA Chevrolet of Plattsburgh had a surplus of 2.7L Model Silverados that they needed to move off their lot. The dealership needed a successful solution to sell more Silverados so that they could fill it with other in-demand vehicles.
The Solution
Dealers United helped the DELLA Chevrolet team build a new Inventory Ad campaign to help drive more Silverado traffic. The dynamic ad showed a walk-around video of the truck, with scrolling, live, on-the-ground Silverado inventory underneath, where users could click directly to the Silverado VDP they were interested in. Since its launch, the campaign has been successful helping DELLA sell additional Silverados every single month!
Audience Strategy:
- In-market Chevrolet car shoppers
- Within 25 mile radius
Ad Placements & Formats:
- Facebook and Instagram
- Desktop, Mobile, and Stories placement
