put your co-op dollars to work

GM iMR. OEM co-op. Local marketing funds. Whatever your manufacturer calls it, those dollars are meant to help your dealership advertise, compete, and grow. You pick the direction. We help handle the rest.

Start the GM Approval Form

Martin Advertising helps dealers make the most of available co-op programs with campaigns that are strategic, compliant, and built to move quickly. From GM iMR Turnkey programs to other OEM co-op support, we help you plan the work, manage the details, and get your advertising in market without making the process harder than it needs to be.

Turnkey means turnkey.

Every program is pre-built to GM's iMR specs and filed on your behalf. Martin Advertising submits your selected iMR funds to be debited from your dealership portal and puts them into GM-compliant campaigns within the same calendar month of submission. California and commercial campaigns are not subject to sales match. You approve once. We run it end to end.
