# *41%* growth in vehicle sales

TLA delivered a consistent pipeline of high-intent, in-market buyers across Ford's retail and commercial range, growing vehicle sales 41% year on year.

## Volume is easy. *Sales are the point.*

Lead volume is simple to generate and hard to value, and too much of it never reaches a showroom. Ford needed marketing investment that could be traced through to cars sold, sourced from the independent sites where new car buyers do their research. TLA and Ford have been solving this challenge together for over ten years.

### What Ford needed

- **Buyers, at scale** — a consistent pipeline of in-market new car buyers across the full retail and commercial range.
- **Quality, before handover** — every buyer validated and qualified before reaching Ford's network, so dealer time is spent on people ready to purchase.
- **Proof at the point of sale** — performance tracked through to the vehicle sold, not reported at the point of enquiry.

## High-intent *lead generation*

A consistent source of in-market new car buyers, already well along in their decision making journey.

### Trusted digital platforms

TLA operates trusted platforms designed to attract consumers who are actively researching their next vehicle purchase.

### Intelligent qualification

Our use of smart technology and detailed data capture identify and qualify high-intent customers at scale.

### In-market buyers

The result is a steady stream of new car buyers who are already well along in their decision making process.

## A 41% increase in *vehicle sales*

Year on year, 2024 vs 2025, vehicle sales grew 41%: 1,205 cars sold in 2025, 348 more vehicles than the previous year. Growth came across the full retail and commercial range, with buyers validated before handover.
