Co-Op Compliance: A Crucial Element in Automotive Advertising

/ , , , , , , , , , , , , , /

In the realm of automotive advertising, co-op compliance stands as a major cornerstone for the success of most new-car dealerships. As most dealers well know, co-op reimbursement dollars from their brand’s corporate entity play a pivotal role in fueling their advertising efforts. These funds provide the necessary resources for reaching out to potential customers effectively, ensuring the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns.

Relieving the Burden
Dealerships are well aware that creating a “co-op-able” advertisement involves adhering to specific guidelines; and the failure to meet these criteria can lead to the rejection of co-op claims. Moreover, the process of obtaining co-op dollars involves a meticulous pre-approval and paperwork submission procedure, adding complexity to an already demanding task.

At JKR Automotive Advertising, our specialists understand the challenges dealers face in navigating the co-op compliance landscape … and we make it a point to stay on top of each change so we can be proactive rather than reactive.

JKR streamlines the co-op compliance process by ensuring that all creative content aligns with corporate guidelines, making the dealership eligible for co-op dollars entitled to them. Additionally, we take on the responsibility of co-op submission, relieving dealers of this time-consuming task.

Co-Op Guidelines Don’t Affect Our Creativity
One of the key benefits our clients appreciate is that while we operate within co-op guidelines, it doesn’t stifle our creativity. Despite the regulatory framework imposed by corporate entities and the time constraints inherent in advertising, JKR continues to produce compelling advertisements that resonate with consumers, driving viewers and listeners to buy cars.

How Can We Help YOUR Dealership?
What can JKR Automotive Advertising do for you? We free up your time by handling the everyday aspects of co-op compliance, allowing you to focus on what you excel at – selling cars! We alleviate the stress and complexities associated with the co-op pre-approval and submission processes, ensuring you receive your reimbursement promptly. In essence, we simplify the process for our clients, making their advertising journey smoother and more efficient than ever.

Making Waves: Kia of Old Saybrook’s Successful Switch from Cable to Radio Advertising

/ , , , , , , , , , , , , , /

In the always-evolving landscape of automotive advertising, making the right choices is vital to a dealership’s success. Landon Sock, owner of Kia of Old Saybrook in Connecticut, recently took a leap of faith by making waves, switching from cable to radio advertising, and the results have been nothing short of impressive.

Initially hesitant about the transition, Sock trusted the advice of JKR Senior Partner Richard Brauns, a decision that has proven to be a game-changer for his dealership. The move to radio advertising has paid off handsomely, with January marking the dealership’s first time on the airwaves. In a month where many dealerships struggled, Kia of Old Saybrook experienced an immediate surge in sales, boasting a 50% increase as soon as JKR’s suggested advertising campaign was implemented.

Brauns is quick to point out that Kia of Old Saybrook’s successful transition to radio doesn’t negate the value of cable – or television in general – in automotive advertising in every case. He explains that each client’s situation is unique, and the effectiveness of a marketing strategy depends on a number of factors, with reach, frequency and overall cost leading the way. “It isn’t always about who spends the most; it’s about who spends the smartest,” says Brauns, highlighting the importance of making informed decisions in the competitive world of automotive sales. “Spending big doesn’t guarantee attention; it’s about creating campaigns that reach consumers and resonate with the target audience.”

Need Some Direction?
Because Americans are inundated with advertisements on a daily basis, it’s crucial to stand out and connect with potential buyers. For dealerships navigating these changing times, JKR’s experience and expertise is as important now as it’s ever been.
