Case Study: How I-95 Toyota of Brunswick Conquered the Market

Brief

Before partnering with Strong Automotive, I-95 Toyota of Brunswick was sales inefficient and regularly struggled to hit its monthly objectives. By implementing a comprehensive, full-funnel marketing strategy, the Southeast Toyota (SET) region store turned its performance around to become the #1 dealer in the region for calendar year-to-date (CYTD) sales growth velocity.

The Challenge

I-95 Toyota of Brunswick was experiencing low sales efficiency and falling short of its monthly objectives. To overcome this stagnation and reverse the trend, the dealership needed a strategic marketing turnaround capable of generating immediate traffic while building consistent, long-term sales momentum within the highly competitive Southeast Toyota region.

The Approach

The STRONG team developed and executed an integrated, full-funnel campaign designed to maximize reach, elevate brand awareness, and deliver measurable results. By pairing expert targeting with custom graphics and high-quality production spots, the multi-channel approach utilized:

  • Strategic Media Placements: Targeted sports broadcasting across ESPN.
  • Search and Digital Visibility: Robust Search Engine Optimization (SEO) alongside Google Paid Search.
  • Social & Digital Advertising: Optimized Meta advertising campaigns and organic social media content.

The Results

The shift from an ineffective strategy to an unstoppable marketing engine produced immediate, record-breaking results:

#1 Region Ranking in the Southeast Toyota region for calendar year-to-date growth.

46% Sales Increase to
outpace all major regional competitors in growth velocity.

Outpaced Sales Objectives for consecutive months, including achieving 139.3% of the April 2026 objective.

By combining targeted advertising with an unwavering commitment to customer service, Thomasville Toyota established itself as a top-performing dealership in its region.

“See the [Toyota] report. The numbers speak for themselves.”
