Case Study: A Successful Customer Data Match Automotive Campaign 

An auto dealer in Tampa, Florida, had to think outside the box during a tough Q4. Instead of cutting back on ads like many others, they dove deep into audience-driven media. Their goal was to harness the power of Customer Data Match at a hyperlocal level. Using fullthrottle.ai's technology, this automotive dealership transformed previously unreachable website visitors into addressable households, creating a robust first-party audience.
