AUL
Doubling social following in just 1 year.
Legacy perception threatened to box AUL in as just a warranty provider. We helped reposition them as a full-service partner for the F&I industry. By transforming organic social from a sales channel into a curated hub of thought leadership and customer insights, we doubled their social following. More importantly, this shift fueled measurable business growth, helping drive more than 1 million new contracts in just 32 months.

The challenge
Despite having a broad suite of F&I products — including GAP, tech and SNI coverage — AUL was seen primarily as an “just a warranty company.” This limited their ability to expand their dealer relationships and positioned them as a niche player instead of a full-service provider.
Compounding the issue, their organic social was sales-heavy and transactional, causing agents and dealers to see them as just another vendor pushing products, which minimized repeat engagement.
Insights
Agents and dealers want a partner, not a vendor. They want to work with a provider that not only can offer them a full suite of F&I products but can also help them understand how to position those products to maximize sales.

The solution
We transitioned AUL’s social media from a sales channel to a platform for thought leadership and insights, positioning them as a leading F&I authority and trusted partner:
1
Aggregated industry news — distilling down key trends and shifts in the market to the most relevant information
2
Demonstrated expertise in the F&I space — providing thought leadership that highlighted AUL staff and leadership in compelling ways
3
Created a consistent posting schedule — establishing AUL as the go-to source for news and market data
4
Drove up funnel demand — creating explainer videos that helped end users understand their F&I choices, driving car buyers to ask for our services by name
