Braman BMW West Palm Beach

Braman BMW is annually a top three BMW dealer in the South Florida market. With two locations in Palm Beach County – BMW Jupiter and BMW West Palm Beach – the Braman BMW group has nearly 700 combined vehicles in stock at any one time, making them one of the largest inventory holders not just in South Florida, but in the entire state. Paired with this large inventory is a price assurance guarantee and the free perks of Club Braman – an elite organization hosting dozens of premier events each year exclusively for Braman’s customer network throughout Palm Beach County.

Objective

South Florida is arguably the most competitive BMW market in the nation. To capture market share throughout the region, it takes a multifaceted marketing approach, including digital, traditional, and event marketing. Additionally, all marketing is required to stay within compliance guidelines to obtain funding from the BMW manufacturer co-op incentives. With all this in mind, the challenges were to improve sales on a monthly and annual basis as well as to expand the footprint of the Braman BMW brand.

Project Solution

In partnership with Braman’s internal marketing team, the team at THAT Agency has been managing the digital marketing strategy for Braman BMW West Palm Beach more than 5 years. The digital strategy has evolved, yet the core concepts of targeted search engine optimization (SEO) and social media marketing have been anchors throughout. Using a combination of dealership-unique ideas and South Florida tier-two incentives, the digital marketing has leaned toward promoting leasing specials, pre-owned sales events, test drive events, and Club Braman prizes – with all efforts submitted by THAT Agency for co-op and reimbursement on behalf of Braman.

To increase overall awareness of the West Palm Beach dealership in key geo-locations among in-market luxury auto shoppers, THAT Agency has leveraged a mix of interest-based, behavioral, and CRM data to apply a targeted social media advertising approach that ultimately generated more website traffic – resulting in an increase in website conversions – while effectively controlling costs.

In addition to SEO and social media marketing, THAT Agency has been tasked with managing all third-party digital vendors, including Auto Trader, Cars.com, Car Gurus, and more. Management has required providing vendor reps with strategies and marketing creative, tracking vendor performance, and reviewing the monthly return on investment. To aid in this, the team at THAT Agency has created and implemented a full template with established evaluation criteria related to web traffic, iLeads, phone calls, and sales.
