1. Digital Advertising What is It? How does it work? Why should dealers use it? How should we measure it? As more money gets shifted from traditional offline advertising media into online interactive media, the ability to create a wide variety of consumer experiences around receiving a dealer’s message brings new possibilities. What are a few of these new ways for dealers to engage car buyers and how do we measure what messages are more effective than others? This session will explore online advertising from the perspective of generating consumer engagement and creating a positive perception of the dealership. We will introduce the concept of Key Buying Activities (KBA) from a dealer perspective and how to track and measure them. The session will showcase live web based presentations, URL’s and Passwords to access them so that participant can use these resources for meetings with their dealership teams, or simply take a second look at the information presented.

15. Campaign Example #1 – Southeast USA; Pickup Trucks This campaign ran for new pickup trucks across multiple states in the Southeastern USA. Conversion to a “Key Buying Activity” (KBA) is defined as “printing out a test-drive certificate.” As Figure 4 shows (next slide),Careers & Education generated the best blend of performance, including click-through and conversion rates… Dating & Social Networking was the highest-performing conversion category. Autos & Transportation had a conversion rate dramatically lower than the average of the campaign while the click-through rate was only slightly higher than the average. Here’s the point;guessing where in-market auto buyers can be found and sticking to that without looking at any campaign data will not lead to campaign success. The true benefit of this data for the dealer and his digital marketer is not only in understanding this campaign’s performance, but also in being able to use the data to more accurately target their online advertising investments going forward – both within the current campaign and future ones… By removing low performing categories, performance will increase.

The horizontal dash line represents the average conversion rate for the campaign Regional Truck Campaign #1 Click-Through & Conversion Rates by Site Category and Traffic Figure 4

17. Campaign Example #2 – Texas; Full-Size Pickups Campaign ran for a full sized pickup truck in Texas. KBA Conversion defined as providing personal information to a dealer (Lead), or “watching the one minute and thirty second video in its entirety.” Figure 5 on next slide shows that Science and Nature performed better than other categories in clicks while Money & Finance outperformed all categories in conversions. This is interesting because Money & Finance is traditionally thought to be a fit for luxury vehicles, not full-size pickup trucks. Second, traditional thinking tells us that consumers within Money & Finance sites are “time-challenged”. Yet this group spent more time than any other group watching the video. Clearly, stereotypes continue to be challenged. Autos & Transportation sites performed below the campaign average both in terms of click-through and conversion rate.The assumption that a category consisting of automotive enthusiasts is the best way to reach consumers who are ready to buy a car within the next four or six weeks proves to be incorrect. These types of auto sites are sometimes even referred to as “in-market” sites when real campaign data continues to suggest that in-market buyers can be more successfully found on other sites in other categories.
