About

Back in 2011, sMedia founders recognized one of the biggest problems in automotive advertising: Everyone is guessing.

Marketing teams run ad campaigns based on vanity metrics, attracting costly unqualified traffic. They don’t know where their engaged customers are, how to spot and reach them, and how much they need to spend in order to do so. Meanwhile, General Managers become lost in unactionable reports trying to justify high ad spend.

sMedia team believed that there’s a better way to acquire customers for dealerships, and it was backed with data.

We developed a technology that recognizes purchase intent and helps over 450 dealerships across North America capitalize on it. Our success in automotive advertising was recognized by Google when we became the first Google Premier Partner in Saskatchewan.

In 2017, we were acknowledged as one of a handful of Google SMB (Small & Medium Business) Channel Partners for Automotive.

This was not a coincidence – we relied on data to understand how we can scale and grow.

Now, we’re helping out clients to do the same.
