Strathcom Media Becomes Part of D2C Media

Today, both D2C Media Inc. (“D2C Media”) and Strathcom Media Inc. (“Strathcom”) proudly announce a joint acquisition to offer leading digital solutions to automotive dealers and OEM’s nationwide. Strathcom will continue to operate independently, but the 2 companies will work together to offer best-in-class services and broaden their offerings to their respective customers. D2C Media has also entered into a partnership with Go Auto to exclusively provide them with leading digital solutions in the coming years.

With our combined group now serving over 900 dealers, we will also gain access to multiple OEM and Automotive group relationships—and even more importantly—add 35 local digital experts to our team in Western Canada so we can better serve our 200+ local customers.

Together, D2C Media and Strathcom will employ over 100 professionals dedicated to the automotive industry and spread our industry presence locally across all 10 Canadian provinces.

“Go Auto has enjoyed owning and growing Strathcom Media for close to 10 years but now is the right time to let it blossom in the hands of experts dedicated to digital solutions,” said Ben Cochrane, Executive VP at Go Auto. “This transaction will provide us with access to leading technologies and will allow us to go back to focusing on what matters most to Go Auto, which is operating a world-class dealership group.”

From D2C Media, CEO Gino Coutu says “This strategic investment is transformative for D2C Media and demonstrates our continued commitment to delivering new and innovative digital solutions to Canadian automotive dealers”.

Our President/CEO, BIll Warren, writes: “The most exciting part of this transaction is that existing Strathcom customers will immediately gain access to new products and technologies such as AI-based Digital Advertising, a premium automotive CRM and virtual BDC services, allowing them to further increase their digital performance and ROI and gain new levels of transparency through D2C Media’s proprietary digital-media-to-in-store tracking technology.”

Both Strathcom and D2C Media customers will be contacted shortly to get a more in-depth presentation of the combined services.
