Strategy

Local, custom footage

So many dealerships settle for the status quo and use the same assets that every other dealership uses that’s provided by the major manufacturer. But by using local, custom footage, Sokal continually creates unique content for each of our clients that reflects their local community, geography, and atmosphere.

Because Capital Ford of Wilmington is near the beach, we intentionally shot footage of their products near local landmarks (such as the Battleship North Carolina), beaches, and city streets to instantly build a deeper brand connection. Additionally, we collected unique shots of the area to use into the future.

Stats

By the numbers

The Capital Lincoln night shoot runs on traditional cable each month and stands out due to the professional cinematography, unique model showcasing, and local landmark footage. The custom running footage the Sokal studio team provided is distinct from the typical manufacturer running footage, setting the client apart from other dealers in the area. Customers have brought the spot up when coming to the store, so we know it has made an impression in the market and contributes to the client’s organic traffic.
