AdAgencyOnline.Net

AdAgencyOnline.Net is an automotive advertising resource / networking portal that hosts a blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time. Philip Zelinger, the President of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and host of the blog talk radio show featured on WAAOL – Automotive Advertising Experts – announced that he will be interviewing Dale Boone, the President and C.O.O. of www.EveryCarListed.Com , Darell Campbell, the C.E.O. of Every Car Listed and Briggs Ferguson, the President-Internet of Idearc Media LLC on the show that is scheduled to air on Friday, July 24th 2009 between 12:00 Noon EST and 12:30 PM EST.

EveryCarListed.Com is a preferred automotive advertising vendor on AdAgencyOnline.Net and both Dale and Darrell have previously appeared on the Automotive Advertising Experts show to discuss thier inventory based automotive advertising website. Philip explained why Dale, Darell and Briggs were invited to update AdAgencyOnline.Net’s audience of automotive advertising agencies and automobile dealers, “EveryCarListed.Com has earned a position as a preferred automotive advertising vendor on AdAgencyOnline.Net based on their unique understanding of both the automobile business and the new automotive advertising technologies being offered on the World Wide Web. For example, I have always been impressed by their integration of social networking to differentiate EveryCarListed.Com from other third party inventory based automotive advertising websites. Their support of the auto industry social networking site – www.AutoIndustryInsights.Com – known as the “Network Of Networkers” evidences their recognition of the need for relationship based selling to satisfy consumer demand.”

“In addition, EveryCarListed.Com recently proved their priority to give online car shoppers what they want by their decision to post videos on their vehicle listings to improve the transparency on their site; another consumer preference that has surfaced as a must have by online shoppers. Our research has confirmed that consumers prefer a video presentation over copy or still pictures when an auto dealer describes a new car or a used car for sale on their site. EveryCarLIsted.Com announced that they are moving towards becoming the only all-video listing site, with one million vehicle video listing available now, and the remaining vehicles on the site expected to offer video by year’s end.”

“Another announcement that warranted Dale’s repeat visit on this week’s Automotive Advertising Experts show is the fact that SuperPages.Com has launched a new “Cars” tab. The link is positioned at the top of their home page allowing consumers to shop for vehicles within their site by accesing all the listings from EveryCarLIsted.Com – including their video listings. The combination of the trafic from SuperPages.Com and the value added video content of EveryCarListed.Com will create a large and powerful all-video shopping arena that will provide a quality venue for auto dealers and an enhanced shopping experience for car buyers. That “win-win” scenario is something that my affiliated automotive advertising agencies, auto dealer clients and site visitors need to know about!”

Superpages.Com is Idearc’s products and services search engine that has more than 27 million unique visitors and ranks 27th in the top 50 U.S. Web properties according to comScore. EveryCarListed.Com was purchased by Idearc media, a subsidiary of Idearc, Inc., in February 2009. A representative of Idearc provided Philip Zelinger with the following press release and related information in advance of the show to help prepare the agenda for Dale’s interview and review of the new all-video platform planned for EveryCarListed.Com:

AdAgencyOnline.Net is an automotive advertising resource / networking portal designed to share best practices with their online following of automotive advertising agencies, production partners and select auto industry vendors that share their stated vision to “blur the line between the real and the virtual world.” AutoIndustryInsights.Com has a similar focus however they have extended their audience and message by linking to a number of established automotive advertising social networking sites to include issues that are relevant to automotive advertising agencies, auto dealers, auto industry vendors and even consumers anxious to listen and learn from the site’s featured “Auto Industry Insiders.” Philip Zelinger, the President of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and host of the blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time - featured on www.AdAgencyOnline.Net expressed his support for www.AutoIndustryInsights.Com site and their anchor sponsor www.EveryCarListed.Com on the blog talk radio show “Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising” that aired on WAAOL on Wednesday, June 3^rd 2009. The show is available as a podcast by visiting http://www.blogtalkradio.com/adagencyonline or http://adagencyonline.net.

Philip Zelinger explained his reasons for selecting EveryCarListed.Com as a preferred automotive advertising vendor on Ad AgencyOnline.Net and his support for their automotive advertising social networking site AutoIndustryInsights.Com, “After 25 years as a General Manager, Executive Dealer Principal and then Auto Dealer, followed by my past 10 years running automotive advertising agencies representing auto dealers and auto industry vendors, I have a unique empathy for my auto dealer / vendor clients. Today’s troubled economy has placed a new urgency on maximizing R.O.I. on all levels. The Internet and the technology driven digital marketing applications and selling systems that are being built to take advantage of the World Wide Web to sell cars and service are growing too fast for the average auto dealer or automotive advertising agency to keep up. AdAgencyOnline.Net serves as a filter of sorts to review cutting edge automotive advertising applications for automotive advertising agencies, however, consumers can be just as confused by the many new resources that they have available on the Internet. Social networking sites populated by fellow consumers provide a new way to share shopping experiences between likeminded consumers before, during and after their purchase however they are missing the auto dealer’s side of the story. Similarly, auto dealers are becoming increasingly aware of the need for them to understand their online customer’s needs in today’s troubled times. AutoIndustryInsights.Com was designed by EveryCarListed.Com to act as a bridge to provide the “inside story” to anyone that visits the site. The “Auto Industry Insiders” section represents several highly respected individuals as well as the auto industry social networking sites and blogging forums that they host.”

Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., (AAOL), is a full service automotive advertising agency. AAOL developed a proprietary online communication / distribution system to leverage the resources of their national network of independent affiliated automotive advertising agencies, production partners and select vendors to serve their auto dealership and vendor clients. In December of 2001 AAOL extended their Internet presence and services to their clients by developing a free automotive advertising resource / networking portal – http://adagencyonline.net – that hosts an online blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time. The site and blog talk radio station focus on common problems experienced by a struggling auto industry in a problem / solution format. Their goal is to share best practices with site visitors with the philosophy that a “rising tide floats all boats.”

Philip Zelinger, the President of AAOL and host of WAAOL’s blog talk radio shows, has recently referenced a new auto industry focused social networking site being developed for a vendor client of AAOL – EveryCarListed.Com, (ECL). ECL is also a “preferred automotive advertising vendor” on AdAgencyOnline.Net and Philip is a regular contributor to the blog site currently hosted on ECL, http://blog.everycarlisted.com/ . The new “network of networkers” planned by ECL will be titled “Auto Industry Insights”, (AII), and it will supplement the blogs and industry issues discussed on the internal ECL blog site. The auto industry focused platform will draw on a diverse group of recognized auto industry experts and their established online communities.

About Auto Industry Insights

Auto Industry Insights will be an open forum for the auto industry headed by an advisory panel made up of established automotive advertising insiders and supported by their existing auto industry social networking/blogging sites. The panel and contributing online communities includes; 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, www.askpatty.com – hosted by Jody Devere and http://adagencyonline.net hosted by Philip Zelinger.

The portal is being developed as a consumer/dealer/consultant facing social networking site supported by – www.everycarlisted.com (ECL) – an auto industry inventory website that will be driving traffic to the networking community through existing strategic partnerships as well as both conventional and online marketing investments. 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 to share “best practices” and real world experiences.

The official launch of AII is hoped to coincide with the 6^th Digital Dealer Conference being held at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas from April 19, 2009 to April 21, 2009, however, the exact date has yet to be announced. According to Philip Zelinger, “AII is a collaboration of a group of qualified professionals who will be contributing their knowledge and relationships to this common effort to advance Internet marketing. It is a project that can’t be rushed, and social networking sites are not commercial ventures so we have no reason to do so. Our goal is to share best practices and develop an online community of likeminded automotive advertising professionals and auto dealers who will follow AII to listen and learn so they can presume to teach. Consumers will share their experiences before, during and after their shopping or servicing experience in both the real and the virtual world and all parties will benefit from their input. I will confirm that we are past the developmental stage and we are now focusing on drawing content from a variety of sources. This will be an ongoing effort so, technically, we will never be done! Of course, the 6^th Digital Dealer Conference would be a great place and time to start so that is our objective.”

Automotive advertising agencies, auto dealers, vendors and auto industry insiders that would like to contribute articles to AII can visit http://adagencyonline.net for additional information, they can contact Philip Zelinger directly at 1-888-796-2228 or email him at pzads@bellsouth.net . To quote Philip, “Help is only a click away!” ###

AdAgencyOnline.Net is an auto industry social networking portal designed to share best practices with automotive advertising experts scrambling to solve common problems in a shrinking auto industry. Philip Zelinger, the host of AdAgencyOnline.Net, is a former auto dealer, the President of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., an author of two books on the auto industry and a respected speaker in demand to share his insights at auto industry seminars and Dealer 20 groups. With registration for the 2009 NADA Convention starting today, January 23^rd 2009, Philip was pressed to advise his affiliated automotive advertising agencies, auto dealer and vendor clients as well as site visitors to AdAgencyOnline.Net preparing to attend the Convention as to which vendor exhibits they should visit and what direction they should take in planning to survive – and even thrive – in today’s troubled economy. His answer was simple, “Focus on Used Cars and Inventory management / marketing applications that will develop consistent processes that begin with the appraisal and follow the vehicle through to the sale based not only on historical sales within your dealership but in the context of your regional market sourced from information found on the Internet.”

The new vehicle market is shrinking for a variety of reasons, most of which are not under the control of individual auto dealerships or even the O.E.Ms. Auto dealers are being financially challenged by limitations on new vehicle financing on a wholesale and retail level that limit their potential R.O.I. from new vehicle sales. Pre-owned vehicles provide a more controllable inventory with the ability to follow consumer demand across multiple brands and model types with a wholesale outlet to manage aged inventory to maximize R.O.I. in a changing auto industry. The solution is easier said than done using established best practices limited by resources from within the auto dealership, however Internet based solutions are being provided by automotive advertising vendors with new applications that virtually automate the process.

The Internet is recognized by consumers as a valuable research tool to help them in their buying decisions. Auto dealers are finally following them onto the World Wide Web by integrating Internet based applications that link their real world decisions with information gathered from the virtual world with its unlimited access to information and resources not previously available.

AdAgencyOnline.Net hosts a blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time – that features blog talk radio shows including “Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising”, “Lunch With Ralph Discussing Automotive Advertising” and the stations most popular show “Automotive Advertising Experts.” In advance of the NADA Convention the shows have focused on automotive advertising vendors that provide inventory management / marketing applications. Three auto industry insiders were interviewed by Philip Zelinger that he recognized as being “on the short list” in his selection of a “preferred automotive advertising vendor” to represent this highly specialized application. The short list includes AAX™ offered by JMsolutions recently represented by Tim Zierden, ecarlist previously represented by Len Critcher and vAuto represented earlier this week by Dale Pollak.

To quote Philip Zelinger, “Help is only a click away!” ###

AdAgencyOnline.Net was introduced by Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., AAOL, during the 2008 NADA Convention as a free automotive advertising resource / networking portal. Philip Zelinger, the President of AAOL and the host of the blog talk radio station featured on AdAgencyOnline.Net – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time – relied on the “real world” meeting to find “virtual world” solutions provided by the automotive advertising vendors exhibiting at the convention. The 2009 NADA Convention to be held in New Orleans, January 24^th through January 27^th, promises to add a number of new online solutions for a struggling auto industry and Philip will be there to review them for his affiliated automotive advertising agencies, auto dealer clients and site visitors.

It is anticipated that auto dealer attendance will be down at the convention based in part on reduced support from the O.E.M.s who are bowing to public pressure to cut expenses forcing the cancellation of several auto dealer meetings and after hour events. Many automotive advertising vendors have also commented that they have cut back on the size of their booths and/or eliminated setting up an exhibit in favor of using hospitality suites at hotels near the convention to reduce expenses.

In a recent interview on one of the blog talk radio shows featured on WAAOL, “Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising” Philip recognized that auto dealer attendance may be down this year but he remained confident that the opportunities will be better than ever before. “My trip to New Orleans is already a success. I am going to the NADA Convention armed with the checkbooks of my affiliated automotive advertising agencies and auto dealer clients to find new solutions to solve shard problems. Based on preliminary conversations and scheduled presentations at the convention I am confident that there will be a few new “preferred automotive advertising vendors” joining AdAgencyOnline.Net after my trip and several new strategic partnerships formed with my current vendor clients. I also have many online friends meeting me there to discuss our new shared auto industry social networking site – Auto Industry Insights. Frankly, introducing it at the NADA Convention is no coincidence. The success of AdAgencyOnline.Net taught me the importance of linking the “real world” with the virtual one. Conventions or conferences with my fellow professionals in the automotive advertising industry strengthen existing relationships and open opportunities for new ones.”

The new communal online resource being organized by Philip in cooperation with his vendor client EveryCarListed.Com will be a “Network of Networkers” with an advisory panel made up of a group of auto industry insiders including; 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, www.askpatty.com – hosted by Jody Devere and www.adagencyonline.net hosted by Philip Zelinger.

About Auto Industry Insights

Auto Industry Insights will be an open forum for the auto industry headed by an advisory panel made up of established automotive advertising insiders and supported by their existing auto industry social networking/blogging sites. The portal is being developed as a consumer/dealer/consultant facing social networking site supported by – www.everycarlisted.com (ECL) – an auto industry inventory website that will be driving traffic to the networking community through existing strategic partnerships as well as both conventional and online marketing investments. 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.
