Big Data... Big Promises... Is It Real?
by Automotive Social Marketing I am hopeful that the time will soon come when as an industry we will embrace Intelligent Lead Routing powered by the same data aggregation (Big Data) algorithms used in a much less efficient manner today by lead scoring systems. ILR combined with lead nurturing has the proven potential to drive long term customer retention, while enhancing the ROI from new business acquisition strategies and campaigns. Imagine that, a system that using intensive training and coaching to show sales pros how to leverage customer communication activities in a manner that recognizes and leverages their own individual strengths to ensure maximum results from each day's efforts. This has always been a people business, and when we optimize process and match the right customer with the right message at the right time and pair that customer with the right sales resource....

Why 'Irrelevant' Content on a Dealer's Website is Relevant
Posted by J.D. Rucker on January 21, 2015 at 12:30pm 9 Comments 5 Likes
Once you get over the beauty of the 1970 Dodge Charger in the picture, you might ask yourself, "What does a 45-year-old muscle car have to do with automotive content?"
We've been asked the same type of question multiple times pertaining to content we publish on dealer websites. Sometimes, it's dealers asking. Other times, it's other vendors wondering what we're doing or "tattling" to the dealer about it. The funny part is that when compared to the automotive marketing "gurus" who question it, the dealers tend to understand the philosophy much more quickly than the vendors.
I'm not here to insult anyone. I totally understand why it's hard for many vendors to get, especially the larger ones who have mechanized content, search, and social strategies. The reality is that based upon…

Some people want it to happen,
some wish it would happen,
others make it happen. ~ Michael Jordan
Anybody with even a passing interest in sports in the 80’s and 90’s has vivid memories of basketball legend Michael Jordan defying gravity to fly through the air and slam dunk a basketball. Again, and again, and again. The man was virtually synonymous with Nike’s ‘Just Do It’ slogan, because he did. Such was his dominance not only of the game, but of sports branding, that he still pulls in nearly $100 million a year on branded gear.…
