Case Study

Renault

Overview

Renault, one of the leading automotive advertisers in France, manages national digital campaigns across a network of 650+ dealerships, coordinated through regional divisions and agency partner Publicis.

While campaigns were already localized (dealer info, offers), they lacked true product-level personalization—limiting relevance and flexibility at the dealership level.

Renault leveraged The COOL Company to enable scalable personalization while maintaining brand consistency.

Strategy

To maintain consistency across markets, while driving relevant advertising, Renault was able to achieve:

  • Dealer-level personalization: Allowing dealerships to select which vehicles (new and used) to promote within national campaigns
  • Automation at scale: Integrating live inventory, pricing, and location data to dynamically update creatives in real time
  • Centralized + local collaboration: Enabling coordination between headquarters, regional divisions, and dealerships within one platform
  • Streamlined workflows: Simplifying campaign creation, launch, and optimization through a self-service interface

This created a system where campaigns remained consistent at the brand level, while adapting dynamically to local market needs and inventory.

Results

Leveraging COOL, Renault was able to move from basic localization to true, scalable personalization—bridging national strategy with local execution.
