We had a great turnout for [x+1]'s NexTargeting Summit on April 23, 2013 in San...
The fastest way to a car buyer's heart
is through her digital behavior.
Not long ago, a typical car buyer visited the dealership seven times before purchasing a new car. Today the number of visits is down to just two.
The difference? Auto buyers now do their research and comparison-shopping on the Internet, making digital the critical sales element that generates online leads for 30% of all sales. Digital interactions with prospective car buyers are moving beyond model selectors, configuration wizards, and dealer locators. Interactions extend beyond purchase, enabling manufacturers to leverage relationships from the first sale through ongoing brand engagement.
Digital automotive marketing solutions provide:
- Product information including "comparative shopping" tools
- Financial calculators with trade-in values and lease or payment options
- Links to dealer sites to search inventory, request a test drive, or get a quote
- Branded image builders like games, videos, post cards, and add-ins
- Industry awards and safety ratings
- Owner links to drive community and retention loyalty programs
