Automotive

Overview: Your Comms Group

This project was executed as part of a strategic collaboration with Your Comms Group, supporting businesses within the Automotive industry across the UK.

As Your Comms Group expanded into automotive dealerships, fleet operators, and vehicle service providers, they identified a clear operational gap. While their sales and account management teams were well-established, they lacked the internal infrastructure and dedicated resources required to run large-scale outbound email marketing and structured lead generation campaigns within the automotive sector.

They weren’t seeking consultancy.
They needed scalable execution.

Our mandate was to design and deploy a fully managed email marketing backend that would consistently generate qualified automotive leads without disrupting existing sales processes or internal workflows.

Challenges for the Automotive Industry

This project was infrastructure-heavy and precision-driven.

1. No Existing Outbound Engine

Your Comms Group had:

  • Sales representatives

  • Account managers

But lacked a structured outbound system to consistently supply the automotive segment with qualified prospects.

Building internally would require:

  • Hiring outreach specialists

  • Tool stack configuration

  • Deliverability testing

  • Data sourcing and verification

They chose outsourced execution to accelerate scale.


2. Deliverability Risk

Cold email at scale fails when:

  • Domains are not properly warmed

  • Sending volumes spike too quickly

  • DNS records are misconfigured

  • Data lists are poorly segmented

In the automotive industry, domain reputation directly affects long-term outreach performance. Protection was critical.


3. Data Accuracy & Targeting

Sending emails is easy.
Reaching the right dealership owners, operations managers, or fleet directors is not.

Data needed to be:

  • Industry-specific

  • Role-specific

  • Verified and up-to-date

  • Categorised before outreach

Precision targeting increased engagement and conversion probability.


Automotive

Solution

We built a scalable outbound email marketing backend designed to independently generate and qualify automotive leads.

Step 1: Team Deployment

A 12-member team was structured across:

  • Automotive data research & mining

  • Email infrastructure & warm-up

  • Campaign execution

  • Performance tracking & optimisation

Each function operated independently to ensure accountability and measurable output.

Step 2: Lead Mining & Verification

We leveraged industry research workflows and tools such as Snov.io for lead sourcing.

Initial focus:

  • Dealership owners

  • Fleet managers

  • Service center operators

  • Procurement decision-makers

All leads were:

  • Verified

  • Cleaned

  • Categorised prior to outreach

Step 3: Email Infrastructure & Warm-Up

We implemented a multi-domain sending model:

  • 8–10 separate domains

  • 2–4 email accounts per domain

  • Gradual warm-up over 4–6 weeks

Actions included:

  • DNS configuration

  • SPF, DKIM, DMARC setup

  • Controlled sending increases

  • Continuous monitoring

This ensured:

  • Strong inbox placement

  • Domain reputation protection

  • Long-term scalability

Step 4: Campaign Execution & Qualification

Campaigns focused on:

  • Personalised outreach

  • Automotive-specific messaging

  • Value-driven positioning

  • Soft call-to-action

Leads were categorised by:

  • Opens

  • Clicks

  • Replies

Only engaged prospects were passed to sales.

Step 5: Sales Handover Workflow

The logic was simple and performance-focused:

  • Open + click → flagged

  • Direct reply → prioritised

  • Sales team contacted only warm prospects

No cold calling from raw lists.
No wasted sales bandwidth.
