(Daytona Beach, Fla.)– DMEautomotive, a JMsolutions and DME Holdings LLC company and multi-channel automotive marketing provider, announced today the acquisition of Full Circle Solutions, an automotive focused direct marketing company based in St. Louis, Mo.

The acquisition of Full Circle Solutions not only adds to the company’s collection of proven customer retention solutions, but also provides a tremendous opportunity to expand the reach of each marketing solution. 

“The sales and service offerings by Full Circle are a natural extension of the suite of automotive marketing solutions that we offer today,” said Mike Walther, president of DMEautomotive.  “We’re excited about this opportunity to leverage their expertise to augment our already best-in-class solutions.” 

Full Circle specializes in helping automotive dealers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) attract and retain customers through direct marketing, telephone acquisition and follow-up services.  As a preferred vendor of Chrysler LLC, Full Circle and DMEautomotive share a common direct marketing philosophy founded on the utilization of sound data analytics in driving effective customer communication.  Full Circle’s automotive industry focus, its complementary suite of multi-channel marketing programs and its shared history with DMEautomotive of jointly supporting dealer clients led to the natural integration of the two organizations.
