Industry Thought Leader Explains Integrated Social Media Marketing for Dealers
CHICAGO, IL – March 18, 2011 – Vice President of Digital at Tier 10 Marketing, Ralph Paglia, is sharing his insights with automotive dealers on how to create successful viral marketing campaigns using contests and a system of sharing entries among friends and co-workers to spread the word.
Paglia notes that there seems to be no limit to what social media can do, but can it help drive a profitable business into today's dealership? According to Paglia, there are several case studies from dealerships of social media marketing initiatives that have produced measurable and successful results for the dealers that executed them. Each case study shows coordination with both off-line and online communication channels driven by an integrated marketing strategy.
How can a dealership create a viral marketing impact using contests and a system that rewards consumers for spreading the word about the dealership? Do they work? There are dealers who have done what many consider to be the future of marketing…today. Paglia offers advice to dealers on:
• Create a Facebook advertising campaign that drives dramatic increases in a dealership's Facebook fan base.
• How to create successful viral marketing campaigns using contests.
• Use the little known Facebook page "updates" application as a free marketing tool to send messages and links to all of the dealership's Facebook fans without spam filter interference.
• Design and build an online contest that uses prizes and awards to drive automotive consumers towards submitting contest entries that create an active and dynamic marketing database for the dealership.
• Connect the dealership's blogs, social media accounts and profiles with Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other sites so that dealers can post once and have their messaging, photos and videos appear in many places across the social web.
• How to use Google Analytics, content syndication, article marketing, Facebook pages, Twitter link campaigns and a dealership's Facebook Fan base as a marketing database.
Ralph Paglia has 20+ years of leadership in information technology enabled automotive marketing strategy and tactical implementation. Widely known as the outspoken Director of Digital Marketing at ADP Dealer Services, Ralph is now the Vice President of Digital at Tier 10 Marketing. Ralph is also the founder and editor-in-chief of America's leading social network for automotive marketing and sales professionals.
