Seasonal exchange and trade-in campaigns with rich media and one-tap valuation requests — turning existing owners into upgrade customers.
Exchange offer campaigns for dealerships promote trade-in valuations to existing vehicle owners, using RCS or SMS with a direct "Get Valuation" action button. Campaigns work best when timed around festive seasons or new model launches and segmented by vehicle age. Part of our automobile communication solutions.
Existing owners are a dealership's most accessible upgrade audience — they already know the brand, have a service history with the dealership, and may simply not have considered that now is a good time to trade in. A well-timed exchange offer prompts that consideration, especially when paired with a new model launch or a seasonal promotional window.
Because the campaign targets a warm, known audience rather than cold leads, exchange offers typically convert at a noticeably higher rate than acquisition campaigns aimed at new customers.
A rich RCS message, the same format used for test drive booking, can present the exchange offer alongside images of the current model lineup, with a "Get Valuation" button that takes the customer directly to a valuation request form or triggers a dealership callback — turning interest into a lead in a single tap.
Festive seasons, financial year-end, and new model launch windows are typically the highest-response periods for exchange campaigns. Segmenting by vehicle age or model year further improves relevance, focusing outreach on owners most likely to be considering an upgrade — the same segmentation approach used in our appointment reminder and service-alert campaigns for other industries.
Dealerships across Bangalore already combine exchange offer campaigns with test drive booking and service camp alerts across SMS and WhatsApp from a single dashboard. See this and more real-world results in our automobile communication case studies.

Yes, campaigns can be segmented by vehicle age or model year, targeting owners most likely to be considering an upgrade.
The campaign falls back to a standard SMS with a link to the valuation form, so the offer still reaches every customer regardless of device or carrier support.
