Toyota dealership marketing — FAQ
Do you handle Toyota Co-Op advertising?
We handle the planning, creative, and compliance side end to end: qualifying campaigns, building creative to Toyota's Co-Op requirements and brand guidelines, reviewing every mailer before production, and providing the complete supporting documentation for your records. You submit the reimbursement claim with our documentation — we don't file it on your behalf, but we make sure everything you need is ready.
What results do Toyota dealers see with Xcel?
Xcel has run 1,600+ campaigns for 250+ Toyota dealerships — 12.7 million pieces of Toyota mail — with every campaign matched back to real DMS outcomes: sold units and repair orders, not estimates. One recent Toyota campaign matched 124 vehicles and 824 repair orders; SMS to Toyota owner bases returns 40–55% reply rates. Your numbers depend on your market, offer, and inventory.
Can you target Toyota owners who aren't in my database — and conquest buyers from other brands?
Yes. Beyond your own DMS and CRM records, our audience engine builds permission-based conquest audiences from bureau and market data — Toyota owners in your market who have never bought or serviced with you, and in-market shoppers currently driving competitive makes. The same audiences power mail, email, and digital, and every campaign reports back through UpDash.
Which campaigns work best for a Toyota store?
Database and equity mail to your Tacoma, RAV4, and lease-end owners, conquest mail into your market, service & recall mail and email for fixed ops, SMS to your consented owner base, and Facebook lead-form campaigns — usually run together so each channel multiplies the others.
