The scene

Everything happens within days

A brand launch, an open day, a stock that has to turn. Three moments with no time to pick the wrong campaign.

For the Polestar launch in Lyon, we had to find what converted in the first days and put the money there. For the open days, the showroom had to be full ten days later.

The Polestar launch

94% of conversions on 55% of the budget

From 19 January to 17 February 2026, the Performance Max campaign made almost all the launch's conversions: we moved the budget there as soon as we saw it.

The journey we follow on every launch. On example data.View full screen
The Polestar launch

1,031 conversions for €3,236: €1.8 per conversion on Performance Max, against €23 elsewhere.

The March open days

Ten days, 324 Google conversions at €1.2, and 252,501 people reached on Meta.

Félix Faure's record quarter

1,806 leads in Q1 2026, forms and calls from the ads, at €4.8 each.

The stock

Every car becomes an ad

With Vehicle Ads, every car in stock becomes a Google ad, with its photo, its price and its dealership. Since they went live at Lyon Elite Motors, a lead costs less than one euro.

  1. Your stockThe cars for sale at your dealerships, already live on your website.
  2. The feedEvery car becomes data: model, year, mileage, price, photos, dealership. Updated every day.
  3. Merchant CenterGoogle checks the data and links it to the dealership’s profile. Meta does the same with its catalogue.
  4. Your adsOne ad per car, on Google, Facebook and Instagram.
  5. SoldA buyer picks theirs, calls and comes for a test drive. The sold car leaves the ads on its own.

What you can take home

Three moments, three habits

At launch, follow conversions daily

The campaign that converts shows within a week. The budget has to follow it straight away.

Open days are prepared upstream

Audience, booking form, reminder the day before: the event is won three weeks earlier.

The stock as the ad

One ad per car, removed once sold: the cheapest lead in the account.
