OBJECTIVE:
Generate Auto Loans Through Direct Mail to Members
In January of 2003, ChevronTexaco Credit Union conducted a successful
Auto Loan campaign utilizing iNTEGRATOR's Campaign Manager. The campaign
consisted of two primary target groups:
Members with a credit score of 690 and
higher.
Members with a credit score between 660
and 689.
The first offer that targeted members with
a credit score of 690 and higher was sent to 15,713 households. The offer
was valid for 90 days on a loan up to 72 months. A maximum of $35,000
could be borrowed at a rate of 4.99%. There was a special one time rate
of 4.74% for loans less than 36 months for the term.
The second offer that targeted members
with a credit score between 660 and 689 was sent to 1,206 households.
This offer was also valid for 90 days on a loan up to 72 months. A
maximum of $25,000 could be borrowed at a rate of 5.49%. There was no
special rate for loans less than 36 months.

One future opportunity for ChevronTexaco
Credit Union is to
develop an auto loan offer to members whose credit rating is below 660.
By participating in risk based lending, there is an opportunity to obtain
greater profit levels from auto loan promotions by offering higher rates
to members with lower credit scores.
ChevronTexaco Credit Union is in the
process of offering promotions to lower credit scoring members today. By
utilizing iNTEGRATOR’s Campaign Manager ChevronTexaco Credit Union was
able to track, measure and report the effectiveness of their Auto Loan
campaign.
