In my experience dealer.com generally doesn’t know anything about marketing or social media, their account managers are cluessless. Pretty much the worst SEO and SEM provider in the car dealer marketing segment.

Dealer.com is a great marketer of their product-I’ll have to give them that! I really like their platform as a whole, but sometimes their marketing strategy is not what is best for their clients. You can’t really blame them for effectively targeting their market. After all, dealers have become wealthy by promoting their own interest and manipulating customer beliefs.

The addition of RSS feeds would have been more appropriate than adding social networking buttons. RSS feeds would help dealer get more traffic to their own dealer.com site, but the “social media hotbutton” is popular among “non-savy” decision makers in dealerships right now. Then again, RSS feeds off dealer.com site would not generate any revenue for dealer.com.

Robert or whoever you are. You used a bogus email address but
you did stay at Hotel St Regis in Detroit last night..

I think if you will read the post you will see how they potentially
could hurt all of their customers and yes some a mutual.

I don’t get it – because Dealer doesn’t litter soc. media sites with spammy & easily ignored/buried tweets and FB fan pages all day they fail? Also, you got a bit of a hard-on for these guys don’t ya Paul?

Did Dealer.com’s advertising message do something that negatively impacted your clients?

I don’t understand what you are trying to promote here. It seems like you are very confused as to how to sell yourself and services. Has this technique of bashing a competitor been successful for you in the past?

Your campaign = FAIL
