The essential
ingredient to
getting results.
Social Media Results Known = Dealer ROI (the What)
1. Marketing Communications: Create and Publish content that attracts consumers
within demographics targeted by social media marketing strategy. Use Social Apps to
engage/interact/convert.
2. Reputation Management:
A. Monitor social web for content posted containing dealership brand.
B. 911 Fast Response Strategy and Process for negative content posted. Notify dealer POC’s of
what was posted, when and by who. Send POC copy, including response published and
actions/due dates required
C. “Social Rewards” strategy for positive posts, comments and mentions
D. Promptly create and post appropriate responses to all dealership mentions so people see
your store cares, pays attention, responds, appreciates compliments and resolves customer
concern issues
3. Traffic Generation: Use anchor text and linked content to drive targeted traffic from
social media sites into dealer’s social assets and websites, incoming phone calls to
social media assigned numbers, use stories to drive showroom traffic
4. Improve SEO Strategy: Quickly increase the dealership SEO “footprint” with
multiple SERP listings from dealer’s Social Media accounts and profile subdomains.
Back links from hundreds of Social Media sites to dealer’s eCommerce sites boost
authority and rank with search engines.
Social Media Marketing Tactical Objectives (the How)
1. Create and Publish high quality content that attracts and engages
people in demographic categories your overall dealership
marketing programs seek and target
2. Monitor every post that mentions your dealership, report to key
dealership stakeholders on what it is, when, where and by who
3. Promptly post appropriate responses to all dealership mentions so
people see your store cares, pays attention, responds, appreciates
compliments and resolves customer concern issues
4. Drive qualified traffic from social media sites (earned media) to
dealership sites (owned media) defined by marketing strategy
5. Improve SEO “footprint” by creating multiple SERP listings using
dealership branded Social Media accounts and profile pages
History and Correlation
Good ROI analysis requires accurate historical performance data
(which few dealers have). Capturing and analyzing historical data requires
time and discipline. It’s easy to cast aside analytical tasks when everyone
is focused on making deals and generating profit. Historical data sets a
baseline for measuring the “Delta”. That change can then be measured
and compared to actions that may have caused it. If you can correlate
Social Media initiative actions to impact, then you can calculate ROI.
