When it comes to upgrading vehicles, timing and messaging are everything. One dealership recently uncovered a valuable opportunity hidden in plain sight: customers who had purchased over a year ago, many with monthly payments exceeding $800. These high-equity owners were ideal upgrade candidates—but only if the message could break through the noise.

The Strategy: Personalization at Scale
To capture attention and drive action, the dealership turned to personalized video. Using CoVideo, they launched a custom inventory highlight campaign, embedded directly into emails. The videos were designed to showcase newer vehicle options that offered value, style, and potential payment advantages.

More than 2,000 previous buyers received this personalized outreach. By combining high-quality video with smart targeting, the campaign felt relevant—not just another sales pitch.

The Results: Engagement and Revenue
In just 30 days, the campaign delivered:

• 2,000+ customers reached
• 14% click-through rate (CTR)
• 3 new vehicle sales directly tied to the effort
• $13,000 in attributed gross profit

It’s a powerful reminder that personalized outreach—especially when paired with compelling video—can do more than just engage. It can drive real, measurable results.

Takeaway: Don’t underestimate the value sitting in your database. When you combine clean data, thoughtful targeting, and modern tools like video, you can create marketing moments that matter—and move metal.
