Background

Who is Kubota?

Kubota is a global manufacturer of agriculture and ground care products, utility vehicles, construction equipment, and much more. Headquartered in Japan with operations around the world, the company built its reputation on engineering excellence and continuous product innovation.

That promise of quality makes consistency and efficiency central to customer satisfaction and success, the same standards Kubota expected from its dealer network online.

The Challenge

Nearly 600 dealer sites, one fragmented experience

Managing close to 600 dealer websites across Europe left Kubota with inconsistent brand messaging, a fragmented customer journey, and a lack of coordinated digital marketing. Content and imagery varied site to site, and a decentralized approach to online advertising made it nearly impossible to optimize marketing spend or accurately track return on investment.

Without centralized lead tracking, potential customers slipped through the cracks. Brand integrity suffered, sales growth stalled, and Kubota could not maximize the effectiveness of its digital investments.

The Ask

A coordinated, data-driven dealer program

In August 2018, Kubota Europe began a strategic digital transformation in partnership with PowerChord, Inc. The collaboration equipped nearly 600 dealers across seven countries with locally branded websites, powered by a data-driven equipment dealer marketing strategy.

By integrating targeted paid search and social media campaigns with PowerChord's platform technology, Kubota gained precise lead tracking and seamless dealer follow-up, reshaping its online presence and its entire sales funnel.

The Result

Brand consistency and precise measurement, turned into sales

PowerChord and Kubota built a comprehensive dealer package that streamlined lead generation, collection, and management. Robust lead tracking turned website traffic into valuable first-party data and real sales opportunities, a win for Kubota, its dealers, and their customers.
