That discussion is posted at http://adpadm.ning.com/forum/topics/consultants-need-consultants
AAOL has provided leveraged resources to their affiliates since before the Internet based social networking phenomenon was recognized by conventional automotive advertising agencies. Their explosive growth evidences the wisdom of their business model for serving the auto industry. Their use of the Internet and digital marketing combined with the related technologies and applications that integrate “virtual auto dealerships†with real world selling processes has allowed them to prosper during a struggling economy that has forced auto dealers to rethink the way that they advertise.
The automotive advertising agencies linked through AAOL find, review and recommend cutting edge automotive advertising applications and coordinated selling process for both the real and virtual showrooms for their auto dealer clients. Their communal networking portal, AdAgencyOnline.Net, features preferred automotive advertising vendors through dedicated links and the site’s hosted blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time.
The blog talk radio shows featured on WAAOL include; “Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertisingâ€, “Lunch With Ralph Discussing Automotive Advertising†and “Automotive Advertising Experts.†All of the shows run on assigned weekdays from 12:00 Noon EST to 12:30 PM EST with invited automotive advertising experts reviewing cutting edge applications for consideration by the automotive advertising agencies, auto dealers and O.E.M. representatives that follow WAAOL to listen and learn while others teach!
Auto industry vendors previously reviewed on the blog talk radio shows include; LeadConverter, AI Dealer, Laser Steam Video, NeoSynergy, CarFolks.Com, ADP, BZ Results, Kihon Media, R.L. Polk & Co., The Detroit Trading Exchange, Ebay Motors, Veeple, Dealer.Com, AdSymetrix, Gumiyo, vAuto, AAX, AdTel, ReachLocal, ecarlist, and nada-24 – to name a few.
A growing number of automotive advertising and auto industry vendors reviewed on WAAOL have also become “preferred automotive advertising vendors†featured on AdAgencyOnline.Net. Many of these featured vendors have engaged AAOL as their automotive advertising agency and/or consultant with more formal agreements including; DealMaker.Com, EveryCarListed.Com, SiSTer Technologies–Video CarLot, CityTwist, Argistics-AutoTransaXion and Bulldog Marketing Technologies.
Most of these vendors will be represented by Philip Zelinger during the NADA Convention with meetings scheduled at one of the hospitality suites, seminars and/or at their exhibits on the convention floor. Philip will be coordinating individual meetings at hospitality suites including those hosted by SiSTeR Technologies at the Wyndham Riverfront Hotel to present their automated video production application – Video CarLot and a V.I.P. hospitality suite at the Ritz Carlton Club floor for Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and their vendor/clients including DealMaker.Com, Argistics, CityTwist, EveryCarListed.Com, and Bulldog Marketing Technologies as well as individual presentations for LeadConverter, Ai Dealer, Kihon Media, NeoSynergy, Gumiyo and others to be named as arrangements are confirmed.

Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., (AAOL), was formed in December of 2001 as an online communication / distribution system linking a national network of affiliated automotive advertising agencies. At that time social networking was in its infancy, but the Internet based resources that AAOL provided to its auto dealer and auto industry vendor clients allowed the automotive advertising networking community to recognize the importance of social networking on the Internet before conventional automotive advertising agencies understood the opportunity.
Philip Zelinger is the President of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and host of the automotive advertising networking site – AdAgencyOnline.Net. Philip established the automotive advertising resource portal to provide an online forum for his affiliated agencies, production partners and auto dealer clients to review potential vendors and share best practices. The site integrated a blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time – to conduct open business meetings on blog talk radio shows, such as “Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising.†The success of the live interactive online discussions and the ability to download podcasts for later review or distribution created a growing audience of auto industry insiders that tuned to the blog talk radio shows to listen and learn.
As a result, AdAgencyOnline.Net added the “Lunch With Ralph Discussing Automotive Advertising†show. Ralph Paglia is the National Director Of Digital marketing for ADP and host of his own auto industry networking portal, www.automotivedigitalmarketing.com , (ADM). Ralph discusses digital marketing applications and developing Internet based technologies in an open forum shared with Philip Zelinger. The audience of automotive advertising decision makers attracted to these first two shows suggested the need for another forum which featured interviews with other automotive advertising experts that provided the name for the site’s now most popular show, “Automotive Advertising Experts.â€
AdAgencyOnline.Net has an admittedly different agenda than other auto industry social networking/blogging sites followed and supported by Philip Zelinger such as; ADM – hosted by Ralph Paglia, www.DealerRefresh.Com – hosted by Jeff Kershner, www.DrivingsSales.Com – hosted by Jared Hamilton, http://imacsweb.typepad.com/ – hosted by Gary May, http://www.scottmonty.com/ – hosted by Scott Monty and www.askpatty.com – hosted by Jody Devere. Philip explained the difference between his site and these others, along with his respect for the true value of social networking as an honest exchange of ideas, in a recent letter to an associate to present his concept of a “Network Of Networkers†that he will be introducing during the 2009 NADA Convention to be held in New Orleans January 24th through January 27th 2009.
“My site was developed as a “portal†in front of our online communication/distribution system for our affiliated agencies. We placed our client log-in to our previous site on the portal to introduce our dealer clients to our vendor/client links, blog talk radio and “press releases†designed to present the leveraged resources provided by Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. My “end game†was to help my affiliated agencies expose our auto dealer clients to Internet based applications and selling processes whenever they logged in to select an advertisement or review their budgets. It provided an opportunity for our account executives to suggest ways to supplement our auto dealer’s conventional advertising and it has been extremely successful in shifting our clients onto the Internet – which is where the customers are!â€
“In maturing my site I invested time on other auto industry social networking sites to listen and learn as well as teach. I know that sounds corny, but it allowed me access to auto industry networking communities with fellow “visionaries†focused on the changing auto industry that supports all of our families. I have been promoting linked “social networking – blog based†sites to both my dealer and vendor clients to extend their SEO, but their true added value is to provide the information and content demanded by today’s online shoppers that prefer “relationship†based messages over a hard sales pitch.â€
“That is why I am developing a consumer/dealer/consultant facing social networking site supported by one of my vendor clients – www.everycarlisted.com (ECL) – that I would like to share with my friends! The networking site will be a “micro-site†supported by the online traffic developed by existing strategic partnerships with ECL as well as both conventional and online marketing investments that they will be applying to drive traffic to the portal. The concept is to establish a “network of networkers†with a priority on content sourced from auto industry consultants, auto dealers that have their own blogging forums and even consumers that have registered with ECL. The site will be promoted as “Auto Industry Insightsâ€, (AII), with consultants, dealers and consumers sharing “best practices†and real world experiences. Our primary need is for content with the leveraged SEO earned by linking with established networks as a welcome added value for all involved parties.â€
According to Philip, based on existing opportunities it is virtually guaranteed that ECL will enjoy one million unique visitors per month to their site by the end of Q1 2009 and a realistic projection of two million per month by Q4. All of these visitors to ECL will be invited to visit AII to learn about the auto industry and to discuss their experiences in buying or selling their vehicles with fellow consumers and open minded dealers that will be supporting and contributing to the social networking community.
Philip sent the above quoted letter to the hosts of the auto industry social networking sites mentioned in this article offering them a position on a six member “Advisory Panel†for AII. An additional “open†invitation was posted by Philip on ADM in a discussion that he started on the portal; http://adpadm.ning.com/profiles/blogs/teaching-the-teachers-is-job .
All of the invited hosts have accepted the post and will be contributing to the leveraged resources that their communal effort will provide to auto dealers, vendors, automotive advertising agencies and consumers. A dedicated landing page within AII will link to selected articles, links or content that would be of interest to site visitors. Each of these independent networkers will have exclusive control of their postings and will provide reciprocal links to their networks – creating the “network of networks†envisioned by Philip Zelinger.
The first meeting of the “Advisory Panel†for “Auto Industry Insights†will be held on Saturday, January 24th 2009 at 7:00PM during the NADA Convention in New Orleans. The dinner / meeting will be hosted at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in their Mélange Restaurant. The location is a “first class†kick off to a joint venture of qualified and experienced auto industry insiders and automotive advertising experts that have committed their time, wisdom and existing auto industry social networking sites to this shared social networking community.
Dale Boone and Darrell Campbell from EveryCarListed.Com will be hosting the meeting. It is the first time that they will be able to share their vision with the advisory panel members and the first time for many of the consultants to meet in the “real world.†The support offered to AII by www.EveryCarListed.Com will be limited to technical and marketing issues. All of the “moderator†functions providing content and monitoring comments will be handled by the advisory panel following conventional “social networking†guidelines to insure that consultants, dealers and most importantly consumers are able to speak freely on the site.
EveryCarListed.Com, (ECL) is an automotive advertising website hosting the inventory of thousands of auto dealerships and millions of vehicles. ECL will admittedly be enhancing their site traffic by developing this reciprocal link with the established auto industry blogging sites and auto industry experts that will be co-hosting Auto Industry Insights. The links are a welcome SEO tool for all parties, however, the blogs and the related information that they will provide to site visitors, dealers and consumers is a more valued resource and a key differentiator for ECL.
The auto industry has recognized the Internet as a cost effective way to market to consumers, however, many auto dealers and their automotive advertising agencies do not understand the unique protocols that have developed for social networking sites. The success of AdAgencyOnline.Net and the growing use of social networking sites like Face book, My Space and Twitter are based on their ability to moderate consumer forums without controlling them. The focus of AII to link this type of online community with their main websites to provide additional information will earn the trust of site visitors. Social networking sites provide an open forum that allows consumers and auto dealers to share experiences as well as ideas when deciding who to do business with. Of course the added value of increasing the search engine optimization, SEO, of the parent site makes the extended exposure an even more effective marketing tool for auto dealers already supporting EveryCarListed.com.
AdAgencyOnline.Net has a following of automotive advertising agencies, auto dealers, auto industry vendors and O.E.M. representatives that have shared in the success of their automotive advertising resource/networking portal. The featured vendors on the site include ADP and BZ Results with their DMS/CRM and web site services as well as conversion tools offered by LeadConverter and Argistics with their two way video platform –AutoTransaXion.
Other vendors on AdAgencyOnline.Net and/or represented by Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. include; CarFolks.Com – an auto industry social networking site, Laser Stream Video – an Internet focused video production application with enhanced vSEO capabilities, SiSTer Technologies Video CarLot – an automated video application linked via a dedicated API with You Tube to provide a uniquely effective vSEO tool, Gumiyo – a universally applied mobile channel platform, DealMaker.Com – providing a new website that connects buyers and sellers in a real time market driven “many to many†online negotiation, Kihon Media – an online magazine and third party website operating as a database marketing tool for auto dealers, Bulldog Marketing Technologies – a direct database marketing system with a unique filter, “ConsumerClense,†that eliminates customers who no longer own the vehicle attributed to them in the DMS saving on marketing costs, Ai Dealer – an online transaction tool that offers a self serve desking tool for website visitors, NeoSynergy – an automotive advertising portal with AOL Auto and their application, Best Deals, allowing convenient updates to posted vehicle information to keep them competitive, and most recently – CityTwist – a DIY self serve online email marketing application.
AdAgencyOnline.Net has also interviewed respected automotive advertising experts on WAAOL which are expected to contribute articles to AII, including; Clayton Stanfield from EBay Motors, Mark Boyd and Mark Dubis from CarFolks.Com, Jared Hamilton from DrivingSales.Com, Dale Pollak from vAuto, David Wassmann from NeoSynergy, Jerry Daniels from Automotive Broadcasting Network, (ABN), Terry Alling from Kihon Media, David Marod from LeadConverter, Mike Parsons from Laser Stream Video, Brian Hoecht from Ai Dealer, Ralph Paglia from ADP and host to the auto industry social networking community ADM, Jim Ziegler, motivational speaker and consultant to the auto industry, Jeff Kershner, ecommerce director for The Mile One Automotive Group and host of the auto industry social networking forum DealerRefresh.Com , Jeff Raab from the Detroit Trading Company, (DTX), Tim Zierdon from JMsolutions AAXâ„¢, Mike DeCecco from Dealer.Com, Ken Schwartz from CityTwist, Michael R. Spadafore from R. L. Polk & Co. and most recently Kevin Schwartz and Rick Rochon from AdSymetrix.

Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., (AAOL), has added another leveraged resource for their network of independent affiliated automotive advertising agencies to extend their services through the use of a new auto industry social networking portal they are creating for their vendor/client – www.EveryCarListed.Com. The automotive advertising agencies linked by the Internet based communication / distribution system developed by AAOL have been promoting EveryCarListed.Com as a preferred automotive advertising vendor on the free auto industry social networking portal – http://adagencyonline.net – hosted by AAOL.
The auto industry has turned to the Internet for cost effective ways to market to consumers. Auto dealers have instructed their automotive advertising agencies to find vendors that can provide cutting edge applications to help them sell vehicles and service. AAOL promotes AdAgencyOnline.Net as an auto industry focused social networking site that benefits automotive advertising agencies, dealers, vendors and consumers alike by finding and featuring Internet based technologies and applications that integrate proven real world selling processes with the virtual showrooms being built on the World Wide Web. The success of AdAgencyOnline.Net and the growing use of social networking sites like Face book, Twitter and too many more to mention have prompted AAOL to integrate similar consumer facing forums into their client’s websites to provide additional information and earn the trust of site visitors. Social networking sites provide an open forum that allows consumers and auto dealers to share experiences as well as ideas when deciding who to do business with. The added value of increasing the search engine optimization, SEO, of the parent site makes the extended exposure an even more effective marketing tool for auto dealers.
AAOL has announced the development of an integrated social networking blog based site – “Auto Industry Insights†– that they will be linking to EveryCarListed.Com, (ECL). ECL is an automotive advertising website hosting the inventory of thousands of auto dealerships and millions of vehicles with one million unique monthly visitors projected by the end of the 1st quarter of 2009. ECL will be further leveraging their site traffic by developing reciprocal links with established auto industry blogging sites and auto industry experts with a loyal following of consumers and/or auto dealers. The links are a welcome SEO tool for ECL, however, the blogs and the related information that they will provide to site visitors, dealers and consumers is a more valued resource.
The online audience provided by the contributors to “Auto Industry Insights†will supplement existing and pending online strategic partnerships, conventional and Internet advertising investments and projected search engine marketing, (SEM), investments made by EveryCarListed.Com. As a result, the site traffic to ECL is expected to exceed two million visitors by the 4th quarter of 2009. The leveraged site traffic of ECL with that of the selected auto industry social networking sites will provide a combined audience and SEO far greater than what the individual sites could produce. Site visitors will also benefit from the opportunity for consumers, automotive advertising agencies, auto industry vendors and OEM representatives to share best practices and to listen, learn or teach about all aspects of the auto industry.
Auto dealers that post their inventory on ECL will also be contributing posted discussions along with consumers that open an online account with ECL. The open forum will allow consultants, auto dealers and customers to share insights not otherwise available in either the real or the virtual world and it is a key differentiator for this forum as well as ECL which will benefit everyone that is involved. The “transparency†provided by this exchange of shared information and real world experiences represents the future use of the Internet to conduct business and AdAgencyOnline.Net is an example of a successful site targeted to the auto industry that has proven its value to attract new business in an otherwise down market.
Philip Zelinger is the President of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and host of the automotive advertising networking site – AdAgencyOnline.Net. The automotive advertising resource / networking portal features a blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time . Mr. Zelinger hosts several blog talk radio shows, such as “Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising,†to review potential automotive advertising vendors to be featured on AdAgencyOnline.Net. More recently, he has used the online forum as an open business meeting to invite auto industry insiders with an established online audience to join him on the new auto industry social networking site he is developing for EveryCarListed.Com. Mr. Zelinger stated that the response from his online friends and fellow auto industry consultants has been extremely gratifying. The first meeting of the “Advisory Counsel†for the shared portal – “Auto Industry Insights†– will be held at the NADA Convention in New Orleans between January 24th and January 27th 2009. The qualified and experienced auto industry insiders and automotive advertising experts that have committed their time, wisdom and existing auto industry social networking sites to this shared opportunity insures that the site will be a valued platform and leveraged resource for all of the contributors.
Dale Boone and Darrell Campbell from EveryCarListed.Com will be reviewing applicants to select six of the “best of the best†to serve on the senior advisory panel and to contribute articles and reciprocal links to the portal. Mr. Zelinger confirmed that Ralph Paglia, the host of an auto industry networking site, www.automotivedigitalmarketing.com ,(ADM), has been offered and has accepted the first seat on the panel.

The auto industry is following the direction of the automotive advertising agencies linked by Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. to develop their own social networking sites. Many of the auto dealer and vendor clients of AAOL will be monitoring the success of ECL’s “Auto Industry Insights†to help design their own linked forums. Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. is responsible to monitor and manage the automotive advertising applications that they promote to maximize the R.O.I. for their clients and they are confident in the anticipated success of the one that they are developing for ECL. Philip Zelinger stated that “Blog talk radio, online social networking sites and blogging should be an integral part of any comprehensive online marketing plan and the new site to be hosted by ECL promises to be the best example of leveraged online resources to date.â€

Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., (AAOL), is a network of independent affiliated automotive advertising agencies that are joined together through their online communication / distribution system to leverage their resources in both the real and the virtual world. EveryCarListed.Com is a vendor/client of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., as well as a preferred automotive advertising vendor on the free auto industry social networking portal – http://adagencyonline.net – hosted by AAOL.
The auto industry has turned to the Internet for more cost effective ways to market to consumers. Auto dealers are also using the World Wide Web to select automotive advertising agencies and auto industry vendors that can provide cutting edge automotive advertising applications to help them sell vehicles and service. Social networking sites are being developed as an open forum to allow site visitors to share experiences as well as ideas when deciding who to do business with. AAOL’s use of AdAgencyOnline.Net has proven that these open forums can benefit agencies, dealers, vendors and consumers alike. They have matured their use of social networking sites to new levels by integrating them into their client’s websites as added value to site visitors and to increase the search engine optimization, SEO, of the parent site.
One planned example of this enhanced use and integration of social networking in the automotive advertising industry is a blog based site – “Auto Industry Insights†– that AAOL will be linking to EveryCarListed.Com, (ECL). ECL is an inventory based automotive advertising website that is using their projected one million plus per month unique site visitors by the end of the 1st quarter of 2009 to support reciprocal links to established auto industry blogging sites and auto industry experts with a loyal following of consumers and/or auto dealers. Based on existing and pending online strategic partnerships, conventional and Internet advertising investments and projected search engine marketing, (SEM), investments the site traffic to ECL is conservatively expected to exceed two million visitors by the 4th quarter of 2009. By leveraging the site traffic of ECL with that of the selected auto industry social networking sites the combined audience and SEO will exceed anything that the individual sites could produce. More importantly, the combined platform of all of the contributors will develop a “one stop site†opportunity for consumers, automotive advertising agencies, auto industry vendors and OEM representatives to share best practices and to listen, learn or teach about all aspects of the auto industry across all channels.
Additional content and enhanced SEO for the new social networking portal hosted by ECL – Auto Industry Insights – will be provided by contributing auto dealers that post their inventory on ECL as well as consumers that open an online account with ECL. The “cross channel†communications between consultants, auto dealers and customers will provide dialogue and insights not available through separate lines of communication now established in either the real of the virtual world and it will serve as a key differentiator for his forum as well as ECL.
Philip Zelinger, the President of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and host of his own automotive advertising portal – AdAgencyOnline.Net, features a blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time . Mr. Zelinger used his blog talk radio show, “Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising,†to invite auto industry insiders with an established online audience to join him on the new auto industry social networking site he is developing for his vendor/client EveryCarListed.Com.
