Automotive dealers should use every tool at their disposal to sell more vehicles, including online platforms such as Facebook Marketplace. Introduced in 2016, Facebook Marketplace is an online platform where consumers can discover, buy, and sell items. Consumers can search for specific items and filter the results by location, price, or category. By using Facebook Marketplace, used car dealers can connect with people in the community who are interested in purchasing a vehicle.

Advertising and marketing can go hand in hand, but the terms aren’t interchangeable. The American Marketing Association defines the difference in this way: “…marketing is the process of identifying customer needs and determining how best to meet those needs. In contrast, advertising is the exercise of promoting a company and its products or services through paid channels.”

Facebook ads can help customers find cars and car dealerships in their area. For dealerships, these ads can help generate leads and sales by delivering the dealership’s messages and brand to new potential customers.

Social media is a crucial way to connect with customers and, hopefully, generate new business, too. Dealerships may be active on Facebook or Twitter, and hosting accounts on these two platforms may work well for providing updates and sales or to simply engage with followers.

Managing your automotive dealership’s reputation has never been more important. Why? According to a recent survey, 87% of consumers read online reviews for local businesses. Furthermore, the automotive industry is one of the top five industries in which consumers are most likely to read reviews.

Car dealerships face competition, and, depending on the town or city, the competition can be heavy. While smaller town dealerships may be the only dealership in town or may only compete against a few other local dealerships, businesses located in bigger cities or suburbs may compete with a dozen of other dealerships.

In the past, automotive companies relied solely on traditional marketing channels such as TV, print, and radio to reach potential consumers. But over the last decade, digital marketing has become an increasingly important component of automotive marketing strategies. It’s no longer an option to implement digital marketing strategies--it’s a necessity.

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the growth of digital automotive retailing. Most consumers were hesitant to visit automotive dealerships in-person last year due to health concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Social media can be an important marketing tool for connecting with and engaging customers and clients. Car dealerships are getting social on social media and are using these platforms for marketing and outreach.

The term “partner” can mean a few different things in the corporate world, and it’s thrown around often during branding and business development meetings. While we might mean it to be all-encompassing, there are certain situations that command a different type of partnership.

The automotive consumer market is becoming increasingly diverse. Racial and ethnic minorities account for about 44% of the Millennial generation, which now represents 30% of the population in the U.S. The youngest demographic, Generation Z, is the most racially and ethnically diverse generation in U.S. history. Nearly half of people that belong to this generation are racial or ethnic minorities.

Dealerships need to continuously invest in their marketing presence (budgeting), remain consistent with their brand messaging and consistently stay on edge with the competition. It’s not enough for dealerships to simply market their new vehicle models; consistent messaging throughout the year helps a business stay in front of audiences and remain competitive.

Throughout the past year, more businesses have been moving to a hybrid or fully online commercial model to keep up with ecommerce demand. Since the pandemic has severely limited options for brick-and-mortar businesses.

The automotive industry is fiercely competitive, which is why strong branding is so important. Branding can help you clearly communicate to your target audience what it is that you offer and how you are different from your competitors.

Geo-targeting is a powerful tool for dealerships that are looking to expand their online outreach and target a specific area to boost sales and customer traffic.

Running an automotive dealership is not easy. It involves many tasks, including managing inventory, evaluating supply and demand, training employees, maintaining dozens of vehicles, and of course, getting customers in the door.
