INTEGRATED SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING FOR CAR DEALERS
From electing an American president to toppling an Egyptian dictator, there seems to be no limits to what social media can do, but what about driving profitable business into today's dealership?
This session will showcase several actual case studies of social media marketing initiatives that have produced measurable and successful results for the dealers that executed them. An emphasis will be placed on each example's coordination with both off-line and online communication channels driven by an integrated marketing strategy. Attendees will learn how to create viral marketing impact using contests and a system that rewards consumers for spreading the word about the dealership. Online resources will be provided along with reference handouts in printed format providing attendees with valuable tools that they can make use of to promote their dealership before leaving the conference. The use of Google Analytics, content syndication, article marketing, Facebook pages, Twitter link campaigns and how to leverage a dealership's Facebook Fan base as a marketing database will each be demonstrated from the perspective of dealers who have done what many consider to be the future of marketing… today.
