18. THE PROBLEM: Dealers currently see the Social Media and Online Ratings and Reviews Landscape as a bewildering array of brands and sites!
19. Social Marketing & Reputation Management Value Increased traffic to the dealer’s primary eCommerce websites Increased “Top Of Mind” Brand Awareness of the dealership in local area with automotive customers who are in market Improved Search Engine Rankings for the dealer’s primary eCommerce site for relevant search terms An effective and proactive Reputation Management strategy that alerts dealers to what is being published and guides satisfied customers towards posting positive reviews Increased sales of Vehicles, Service and Parts Dealer establishes a Thought Leadership position in their local community with a customer segment that is difficult to reach Employee engagement with Social Media that is guided, advantageous to the dealership, controlled and monitored
25. With one click of the customer’s mouse button, Performance Toyota’s eNewsletter makes it easy for customers to share “Money Saving Tips” using any, or all of the customer’s social media accounts. These “Social Sharing” apps do all the work so customers can share anything they find interesting with friends, family, coworkers or anybody they are connected with that the customer believes may benefit from the information and link sent… So, let’s click on Facebook first.
26. After I click on the Facebook icon in Performance Toyota’s eNewsletter, a new browser window automatically pops open and Facebook recognizes me, has me already logged in and the eNewsletter article headline and an image is preloaded and ready to go… Like a lot of people normally do, I add a comment in the box at the top explaining why I am sharing this Toyota dealer’s eNewsletter article about using your cell phone to take advantage of money saving coupons… Wouldn’t you? If customer is not in the mood to type, they can just click the “Share” button on the bottom right…
27.

29. When I was dropped back into the eNewsletter, I clicked on the Twitter icon… With that one click of my mouse, the eNewsletter pushes a Tweet tip to my Twitter account, ready for me to share with 1,200+ friends, family, coworkers (Twitter followers) in a nicely pre-populated little message… With a link to the article!

33. Online Advertising AlternativesFacebook Advertising Campaigns With over 350,000,000 Facebook users and over 50% logging into their accounts every day, there will be dealers that generate significant business from this social network… Creating Ad campaigns is easy and very few dealers currently compete in this space.
34. How hard is it to create your own Advertising Campaigns on Facebook?
35. Over a Million Facebook members within 50 miles of Kansas City… Over the age of 18.
36. 326,000 Facebook members within 50 miles of Kansas City… Over the age of 21, and have a college degree.
37. 980 Facebook members within 50 miles of Kansas City work for Hallmark… Toyota Dealers can message them through Facebook Advertising and Fan pages.
38. 2,460 Facebook members within 50 miles of Kansas City work for Sprint… Toyota Dealers can reach them with targeted messages through Facebook Advertising and Fan pages.
39. 1,440 Facebook members within 50 miles of Kansas City work for Wal-Mart… Toyota Dealers can reach them with targeted messages through Facebook Advertising and Fan pages.
40. 480 Facebook members within 50 miles of Kansas City work for DST Systems?? Toyota Dealers can reach them with targeted messages through Facebook Advertising and Fan pages.
41. To test the waters, I built a Facebook Advertising campaign for my new Toyota Community Fan page… For $100 a day, it looks like I can get 170 Facebook members over the age of 21 to click through and visit the Toyota Fan Page…
42.
43. The volume of “Invitations” I receive every day from dealers around the country to become a “Fan” of their dealership and their Facebook Fan page has escalated from 1 per week to several per day in the past year… Get competitive and go to where your customers are!
44. Reputation Management(Word of Mouth Marketing) If we do a great job with a thousand customers and fail to satisfy one… Can you guess which customer will post an online review and rate our dealership?
45.
46. Can dealers get their most satisfied customers to post positive reviews and rate their dealerships online? In many markets, one dealer figures out how to get it done, then takes business away from other dealers with the reputation created… Then everyone else works furiously at trying to catch up…
47. One Toyota Dealer in Missouri has seized the opportunity to get ahead of the rest with Reputation Management.
48.
49. There is one of those Facebook links again… What happens when I click on it?
50. After I click on the Facebook link in Molle Toyota’s DealerRater review, a new browser window automatically pops open and Facebook recognizes me, has me already logged in and the customer review preloaded and ready to post on the “Walls” of over 1,200 of my Facebook Friends… Like a lot of people normally do, I add a comment in the box at the top explaining why I am sharing this Toyota dealer’s review… If your Facebook using customer does not want to type, they can just click the “Share” button on the bottom right…
51.
52. Are Toyota Dealers more or less competitive than they were in the past as we go into the 2010 Auto Sales Recovery period? How have the changes made in the Car Buying Process adopted by most Americans during the 2007 – 2009 Recession impacted Toyota dealer competitiveness?

60. Internet Lead Management(Marketing serves it up, Sales puts it in the till…) If we do a great job and get hundreds or thousands of sales opportunities… Why would we not ensure they our response processes are optimized for success?
