THE REAL PROBLEM

Internet Leads Don’t Sell Cars. People on Your Lot Do.

Vehicle shoppers can compare inventory, pricing, payments and dealerships from their phone before ever speaking with a salesperson. The challenge is turning that digital interest into an actual customer standing in front of the vehicle.

  • They asked for the price — then disappeared

    The shopper requests pricing or availability, your team responds, and suddenly they stop answering.

  • They booked the appointment — then never showed

    Your BDC did its job. The time was scheduled. The vehicle was ready. The shopper never arrived.

  • They’re comparing the same vehicle somewhere else

    The customer may be looking at similar inventory across several dealerships at the same time.

  • They took the test drive — then left to “think about it”

    Getting someone behind the wheel is progress. It still does not guarantee a sale.

  • You sold them a car — then lost them after delivery

    If they service somewhere else, forget the dealership and eventually purchase their next vehicle elsewhere, the relationship produced only one transaction.

The goal isn’t simply more automotive leads. It’s more showroom visits, more test drives, more vehicle sales and more customers who come back.

HOW CMI WORKS

One Existing Campaign. One Added-Value Incentive. A Stronger Reason to Show Up.

  1. 01

    RUN THE MARKETING YOU ALREADY USE

    Google, Facebook and Instagram, inventory ads, vehicle-detail pages, email, SMS, CRM and BDC follow-up, marketplace leads and dealership promotions.

  2. 02

    ADD A HIGH-VALUE CMI INCENTIVE

    Connect the incentive to a meaningful customer action such as completing a test drive, purchasing a vehicle, returning for service or participating in a referral campaign.

  3. 03

    CMI SUPPLIES & FULFILLS THE INCENTIVE

    Your dealership promotes the offer. CMI supplies the incentives and manages the redemption process, plus the tools to create and distribute them by email, SMS, landing page links, QR codes, PDFs, banners and pop-ups.

  4. 04

    GIVE THE SHOPPER ANOTHER REASON TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP

    The vehicle, pricing and dealership experience remain the core value. The incentive makes the offer around the next action stronger.

FROM ONLINE SHOPPER TO SHOWROOM

Give More Vehicle Shoppers a Reason to Get Behind the Wheel.

A shopper viewing your inventory online has plenty of ways to keep browsing. Give them another reason to stop scrolling and actually visit your dealership.

BEFORE

Schedule a Test Drive

  • The same invitation every other dealership is running
  • Nothing extra to prompt the shopper to show up
  • Fewer showroom conversations to work with
AFTER

Schedule & Complete Your Test Drive

Receive a $200 Dining Certificate

No vehicle purchase necessary.

The vehicle and the test drive stay the same. CMI supplies and fulfills the incentive attached to the offer.

Same Vehicle. Same Test Drive. A Stronger Reason to Show Up.

FROM TEST DRIVE TO VEHICLE SALE

Get the Test Drive. Then Give Them Another Reason to Buy.

The test-drive incentive helps create a showroom opportunity. A higher-perceived-value incentive can then strengthen the actual vehicle-purchase offer.

STAGE 1 — TEST DRIVE

Complete Your Test Drive

$200 Dining Certificate

Create a stronger reason to visit and get behind the wheel.

STAGE 2 — VEHICLE PURCHASE

Purchase Your Vehicle

Vacation Certificate for Two

One Incentive Gets Them Behind the Wheel. Another Helps Strengthen the Deal.

WHY THE OFFER MATTERS

Stop Making Every Deal About Another Price Cut.

DISCOUNT THE VEHICLE AGAIN
  • Reduce the selling price
  • Give away additional margin
  • Keep the conversation centered on price
  • Make the next dealership easier to compare
ADD PERCEIVED VALUE

4 WAYS TO USE CMI

Use Incentives Across Every Stage of the Customer Relationship

CMI isn’t only a lead-generation tool. Dealerships can use incentives to bring shoppers onto the lot, strengthen vehicle-purchase offers, keep customers connected through service and create more referral opportunities.

  • Generate More Showroom & Test-Drive Opportunities

    Add a high-value incentive to the inventory advertising and follow-up you already run so more shoppers actually visit the dealership.

    Example

    Complete Your Test Drive

    + Receive a $200 Dining Certificate

    More Showroom Conversations

  • Close More Vehicle Sales

    Strengthen the purchase offer with a higher-perceived-value incentive instead of another price reduction.

    Example

    Purchase Your Vehicle

    + Receive a Vacation Certificate for Two

    A Stronger Vehicle-Purchase Offer

  • Increase Repeat Business

    Use appreciation, service and reactivation campaigns to keep customers connected between vehicle purchases.

    Example

    Schedule Your Service Visit

    + Customer Appreciation Incentive

    More Ongoing Customer Engagement

  • Generate More Referrals

    Make it easy and memorable for happy buyers to introduce the next customer to your dealership.

    Example

    Know Someone Shopping for Their Next Vehicle?

    + Referral Thank-You

    More Customer Introductions

One Incentive Platform. Four Ways to Grow Your Dealership.

More test drives. More vehicle sales. More service visits. More referrals.

AFTER THE VEHICLE SALE

The Sale Should Be the Beginning of the Customer Relationship.

Delivery day is only one revenue event. Keep the dealership relationship active through service, maintenance, trade-in opportunities, the next vehicle and future referrals.

  1. 01

    Vehicle Sale / Delivery

    Delivery day is one revenue event, not the whole relationship.

  2. 02

    First Service Visit

    Getting the customer back for that first visit sets the pattern.

  3. 03

    Ongoing Maintenance & Service

    Regular service keeps your dealership part of ownership.

  4. 04

    Trade-In Opportunity

    Stay in front of customers as equity and needs change.

  5. 05

    Next Vehicle Purchase

    The customer who never left is easier to sell again.

  6. 06

    Referral Opportunity

    Long-term customers introduce the next buyer.

Service Keeps the Relationship Alive Between Vehicle Purchases.

TURN HAPPY BUYERS INTO ADVOCATES

Every Delivery Can Be the Beginning of Your Next Customer.

Your customer has the new vehicle. They’re excited, taking photos and telling friends and family. That is the moment to begin the next relationship.

Make referrals intentional instead of simply hoping satisfied customers remember to send someone your way.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions Auto Dealers Ask

Still have a question about how incentives fit your dealership marketing?

Speak With an Incentive Strategist

  • Yes. Many businesses attach a high-value incentive such as a $200 Dining Certificate to completing a specific action — for a dealership, that action is typically scheduling and completing a test drive, with no vehicle purchase necessary. Dealer and OEM advertising requirements can vary, so validate your exact campaign terms before launch.
