Return on investment. It’s a term that is thrown around in the automotive industry by vendors to catch the attention of prospective dealers, but so many times the costs do not match the results. That’s not across the board, but particularly in the realm of automotive social media, the ROI is often minimal.
This is where our philosophy of ROI Targeting comes into play. The idea is simple: get the right advertising message in front of local car shoppers when they are in the market to buy. It’s not about the overused catchphrases like “engagement” or “branding,” although they do play a role in the overall strategy. Those are the easy parts. The hard part is taking advantage of the hyper-targeting components of social media that bring all of the true ROI value.
