Creating OEM and dealer clarity in Airstream's co-op program

Image

Airstream and Element Three reimagined the dealer marketing program to improve how dealers and the OEM engage customers. Traditional co-op models caused competition, higher costs, and mixed messages. The new Airstream Marketing Program (AMP) replaced that with a unified, efficient approach that amplified reach and impact.

I'm realizing things now about businesses we don't even own anymore and why our sales didn't perform how we wanted.

You’ve done a wonderful job of putting this together. We are moving in the right direction. Significant steps forward. This is where the tensions and pressure testing happens. Iron sharpens iron.

Shout out to Element Three for getting our co-marketing program off to a great start! Weekly lead volume is more than 2x that of previous two programs-with less spend and no incentive to promote. That's a slam dunk in my book. Thanks for your hard work!

The E3 team always provides valuable expertise and adds so much value to our team. One thing that the E3 team excels at most is even when you don't have answers or advice for us you take time to come up with potential solutions to get us headed in the right direction.

We have a lot of vendor relationships and you guys are not a vendor relationship. You're real humans, vulnerable, thoughtful. Doing a good job. And I want to thank you so much for that.

You were the one agency that figured it out from the beginning. We couldn’t have been happier. We knew we’d grow out eventually, and the time has come. Kudos to your team, and thank you!

// FAQ //

You ask,
we answer

What makes Element Three different from other marketing agencies?

Most agencies don’t understand the complexity of selling through a dealer network. We specialize in the B2B2X model—helping manufacturers align with dealers, maintain brand integrity, and drive sales across distributed channels. You can find more about our services here.

How does Element Three support manufacturers with product launches?

We can help in a number of ways from helping your team agree on goals, map channel strategy, and identify target audiences down to supporting your launch events and producing assets for your dealers. We will ensure your product launches get traction fast.

How do you help improve dealer performance?

From turnkey marketing campaigns that move more aging inventory to more creative asset libraries that bring easy access to on-brand assets, we create systems and initiatives tailored to the local level—so your dealers don’t just get materials, they get results.

How do you measure ROI for events and trade shows?

We connect event strategy to pipeline outcomes. That means pre-event demand generation, in-event engagement, and post-event follow-up tied to lead quality and revenue—not just impressions. Understand more about our event marketing process here.

Why aren’t my co-op dollars being used effectively?

Dealer programs often fail when constraints are too tight—or too loose. We help manufacturers design co-op strategies that dealers want to use, with assets, systems, and support that drive actual uptake and results.

Can you help me understand what’s happening to leads at the dealer level?

Yes. One of the biggest challenges manufacturers face is lack of visibility. We help bridge the reporting gap by aligning tech, messaging, and accountability—so you know where leads go and what happens next.

Do you work across the U.S.?

Yes. We are based in Indiana and work with manufacturers across the U.S.—particularly in commercial vehicles, marine, RV, and other distributed channel categories—delivering consistent performance from coast to coast. We also support multi-location businesses leveraging our expertise from the dealer ecosystem to drive impact in niche markets.

Is Element Three a full-service marketing agency?

Yes. We’re a full-service marketing agency built for manufacturers and their dealer networks. From research and brand strategy to creative, content, performance marketing, and website development—we deliver integrated solutions that drive measurable results across your entire go-to-market strategy.

Does Element Three support dealer program development?

Yes. We help manufacturers build the right dealer program to serve their needs and the needs of their dealer network. We help establish the strategy behind your dealer network, build out the program and its tiers, and help with the change management to roll the program out to your dealer network. Once implemented, our team can help produce the assets and services available to your dealers through the program.
