BERLIN CITY AUTO GROUP

WHY

The auto sales industry is one of the most competitive around. Dealerships saturate the airwaves and car buyers’ social media feeds with ads, content, deals, and more. Berlin City Auto Group knew they needed to stand out to catch and keep their target customers’ attention. Their goal? Get customers to remember the easy choice and head to Berlin City for their next auto purchase.

HOW

Berlin City Auto Group’s parent company, Summit Automotive Partners, had a long relationship with a Portland, Oregon creative agency, and needed a Maine video production company to complete the bi-coastal team. Patra was selected to bring the Portland, OR agency’s scripts to life in Portland, Maine with Berlin City. With our local, experienced video crew, production of the Berlin City Auto Group ads was an ideal project for Patra.

WHAT

Berlin City Auto Group’s Easy campaign launched across New England. Commercials produced by Patra aired throughout the region, reminding car buyers that vehicle shopping with Berlin City Auto Group was simple, efficient, and above all – easy. These ads were fun, entertaining and memorable, making a shareable campaign that stood out from the usual car ads and kept Berlin City fresh in their target audience’s mind.

WHAT

The easy campaign was launched. We produced commercials that aired throughout New England that informed their audience that car shopping with Berlin City Auto Group was simple and easy. The ads were fun and entertaining making for a memorable, sharable and engaging campaign that stood out from all of the other car dealership advertisements circulating during the campaign run.

BERLIN CITY AUTO GROUP

ALCOM LLC, a leading aluminum trailer manufacturer, needed a partner they could trust to upgrade their strategy, from user-friendly websites to targeted advertisements. Our comprehensive approach included consulting and creative work to bring modern strategies and tools to an established manufacturer. Using a combination of marketing software upgrades, improved websites and dealer systems, and engaging social media content and ads, PATRA helped ALCOM elevate their marketing while staying focused on what they do best – building awesome trailers.

Video/Photo

Product manufacturers need high quality photos and videos to showcase products and convert clicks to customers. Our creative team has built an ever-growing library of professional media to show off ALCOM trailers in action. Better photos and videos make a better impression on potential customers – from use on the website and print materials to advertising, trade shows, dealer and customer interactions, and social media.

Organic content

There’s more to standing out online than a great website. Engaging organic content is important – but writing a professional blog and managing social media takes time and expertise. With PATRA on the job, ALCOM’s team can focus on manufacturing while we create fresh, interesting blog posts and social media content to keep ALCOM in front of their ideal customers.

Advertising

PATRA created a customized plan, not just to reach ALCOM’s desired customers and get them excited about their next trailer purchase, but to cultivate long-term relationships. To build those lasting relationships, a brand needs more than just great products – it needs a full-scope approach, using all of the modern tools available to spread the word and keep customers engaged.

Consider a tale of two trailer ad campaigns. Both campaigns had the same budget and focused on trailer features. The Mission Trailers campaign included trailer model ads with lifestyle footage and a focus on trailer features. The SnoPro Trailers “Made for Legends” campaign focused on an old-school snowmobiler with an appetite for a modern trailer to haul his prized vintage sled. This campaign tapped into late-80s and early-90s nostalgia that had Facebook and Instagram users reminiscing about the good old days of sledding.

Mission

SnoPro

The results? Made for Legends generated 150% more ad clicks, 221% more ad shares, and 350% more ad comments than the Mission Trailers campaign! Learning which messages resonate most with ALCOM’s ideal customers is crucial information – and equipped with these stats, PATRA and ALCOM can plan future campaigns with confidence.  

Using a similar approach for recruiting ad campaigns, we’ve worked with ALCOM to create an array of ads to deploy in support of their hiring needs at all locations. With funny spots focused on a four-day work week and behind-the-scenes ads giving applicants a glimpse of a future career, video ads are a modern, memorable way to reach the right applicants.
