Dealer Internet Battle Plan

“In today’s social media dominated world, online consumer generated content, such as reviews and ratings, is prevailing as a key influence in shoppers’ decision to ultimately purchase a product or use a service. This trend can be recognized by the increase in popularity of Web sites built on business models providing just this type of information. A positive consequence of such review sites is that businesses work hard to avoid getting low scores and more effort is put into satisfying customers. “

Alin Sturek J. D. Power and Associates

• In 2007, Web 2.0 sites attracted 69 million users in the United States alone.

• In 2008, Web 2.0 sites generated $1 billion in advertising revenue.

• By 2011, Web 2.0 sites are projected to attract 101 million users in the U.S. and earn $4.3 billion in advertising revenue.

Edmunds.com - first Automotive review site

Edmunds follows a product review model for automobiles. Meanwhile, a separate link takes readers to its “community areas,” where users share their automotive ownership and purchasing experiences. Edmunds has maintained this online community since 1996, and it is moderated. All content posted to the site is reviewed by Edmunds’ staff within 24 hours, and offending material is immediately removed.

Is it time for dealers toCreate online communities for employees and customers?

“Every now and then I google myself for fun to see what comes up. I did this just the other day I noticed my ADM profile page was #1, and I haven't even tried to SEO my profile.
