Automotive advertising agencies are challenged to keep up with the explosion of new Internet based automotive advertising applications designed to maximize their R.O.I. for their digital marketing campaigns. AdAgencyOnline.Net was formed as an automotive advertising social networking site to platform and review new automotive advertising vendors and the many applications that profess to help automotive advertising agencies do more for less. Philip Zelinger, the President of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and host of the blog talk radio station featured on AdAgencyOnline.Net – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time, will be interviewing Peter O’Neil, the President and CEO of IntelliTerms, Inc., to review IntelliTerms for consideration as a preferred automotive advertising vendor for his affiliated automotive advertising agencies, auto dealer clients and site visitors to AdAgencyOnline.Net.

Philip will interview Peter on his popular blog talk radio show, Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising, that will air live today, Wednesday, November 18th 2009 from 12:00 Noon EST to 12:30 PM EST. The show is an open business meeting for the automotive advertising agencies, auto dealers and automotive advertising insiders that support the portal. The online community has enjoyed an explosive growth of its own built on an earned reputation as “The One Stop Site For All Of Your Automotive Advertising Needs.”

Previous automotive advertising vendor reviews aired on WAAOL suggest that Philip will first introduce Peter as the founder of IntelliTerms to credential his professional experience. Philip is often quoted as stating that he “prioritizes people over product and price.” According to Philip, “Even the best automotive advertising application needs personal support before, during and after its implementation and that priority must be established from the top down.” After the initial introductions the online audience of automotive advertising professionals will be invited to call in questions of the pair of auto industry experts to discuss the application and share best practices in solving common issues addressed by IntelliTerm’s marketing platform.

About IntelliTerms, Inc.

Peter O’Neil provided the following description of the products and services offered by IntelliTerms in advance of today’s show. “IntelliTerms, with headquarters in Golden, Colorado, automates and optimizes the daily posting of an automobile dealership’s inventory to a wide selection of Web sites, especially the consumer classified Web sites. We employ both a proprietary marketing technology – that converts prices to payments – and innovative account management. Our approach is unparalleled in the automotive industry today. IntelliTerms connects prospective buyers with vehicles that are in a dealer’s inventory as available-to-sell, and generates an enormous volume of real-time, in-bound phone calls and e-mails, which express a qualified interest in those vehicles. At about $10 per real-time prospective buyer, we deliver a much greater ROI than a traditional “lead.” Our solution impacts the bottom line by reducing a dealer’s days in stock, and in return decreases a dealer’s floor plan expense. And our on-line reporting helps in turning over inventory in 60 – 90 days. We drive the showroom traffic. Auto Dealers just sell it. We over-deliver on what we promise, and we guarantee our results.”

About Peter O’Neil, President and CEO, IntelliTerms, Inc.

Mr. O’Neil joined IntelliTerms full time in August of 2009 to continue his track record as a successful serial entrepreneur. Prior to IntelliTerms, Mr. O’Neil served for five-plus years as Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing at CenterStone Technologies, a privately held, VC-funded company that provides B-2-B e-commerce solutions to well-know, national consumer brands.

AdAgencyOnline.Net is an automotive advertising resource / networking portal supported by the affiliated automotive advertising agencies of Ad Agency Online, L.L.C., (AAOL). Philip Zelinger, the President of AAOL, hosts the blog talk radio station – WAAOL, All Automotive Advertising News All The Time – that is featured on AdAgencyOnline.Net. Philip recently attended The 7th Digital Dealer Conference & Exposition to research new cutting edge automotive advertising technologies and vendors that exhibited at the conference for consideration by his automotive advertising agencies. In addition, a number of auto industry experts – including Philip – conducted sessions to discuss best practices in digital marketing and sales/service systems which surfaced new automotive advertising applications and processes that can be implemented by the automotive advertising agencies, auto dealers and site visitors to AdAgencyOnline.Net.

Philip has already invited several new automotive advertising vendors that he discovered at the conference on his blog talk radio show, Lunch With Phil Discussing Automotive Advertising, with many more scheduled in the coming weeks. Steven Munyan, the President and National Sales Manager for Hire The Winners, was interviewed on the show that aired last Monday, November 9th 2009 and an encore of the show is scheduled for this Monday, November 16th 2009 to air between 12:00 Noon EST and 12:30 PM EST. The encore show was scheduled to allow the affiliated automotive advertising agencies of AAOL to determine if Hire The Winners will be added as a preferred automotive advertising vendor on AdAgencyOnline.Net. Philip commented that he has been looking for a scalable online solution to assist his auto dealer clients with their Human Resource needs and based on the feedback from the initial review of Hire The Winners they appear to fit the bill.

Another new vendor being considered by AdAgencyOnline.Net is IntelliTerms, Inc. with an interview of their C.E.O. scheduled for Wednesday, November 18th 2009 at the usual 12:00 Noon EST to 12:30 PM EST time slot. Philip selected IntelliTerms for review in response to requests by his affiliated automotive advertising agencies to find a third party lead provider with a more proven R.O.I. that they can suggest to their auto dealer clients. In a preliminary conversation, Jenny S. Cherocci, the Director of Business Development for IntelliTerms, corrected Philip when he described their service as a “lead provider.” Jenny suggested that they call their inbound traffic “prospective buyers” based on their proprietary process that ties the car shopper to a particular vehicle from the auto dealer’s inventory with a payment quote included in the initial contact.

Philip referenced several vendors that he had discussions with at The 7th Digital Dealer Conference during last Friday’s blog talk radio show, Automotive Advertising Experts. In an interview with Cliff Banks, the V.P. and Editorial Director for Dealer Communications that hosted the conference, Philip referenced conversations that he had with John Giamalvo and Sean Peoples from Edmunds.Com, Rob Lange from KelleyBlueBook.com and Andrew Price from RLPolk.Com that suggested that new expansions of their products and services would require their increased consideration for his affiliated automotive advertising agencies in 2010.

According to Philip, other vendors that he met at the conference that are being considered to appear on WAAOL for the first time or in a follow up of previous interviews based on new products or services include DealerCentric, DealerUps LeaseTrader, Dealer.Com, Align Research, HookLogic, CarThink, HomeNet, FirstLook, SiSTeR Technologies, Argistics, AdVantaStar, ClickMotive and WideStorm.

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 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. Ralph is the National Director of Digital Marketing for ADP and he also hosts a blog talk radio show on AdAgencyOnline.Net called, “Lunch With Ralph Discussing Automotive Advertising.” It is expected that some of the other panel members will be selected from guests that were previously interviewed on another of the blog talk radio shows on WAAOL, “Automotive Advertising Experts.”

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.”

The featured applications on the site include DMS and CRM providers, such as ADP and BZ Results, as well as conversion tools such as LeadConverter’s staffed chat application that functions as an outsourced BDC and Argistics two way video platform –AutoTransaXion – which links to an auto dealer’s DMS and CRM allowing for real time online negotiations leading to an appointment or an actual sale without ever leaving their application.

Other vendors featured on AdAgencyOnline.Net and/or represented by Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. that are being considered to participate with the ECL online blogging site 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 and enhancing communications to better relate to the customer’s current vehicle ownership, 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.

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. According to Mr. Zelinger, “The response from my online friends and fellow auto industry consultants has been fantastic. We are planning our first meeting of the “Advisory Counsel” for our shared portal – “Auto Industry Insights” – at the NADA Convention in New Orleans between January 24th and January 27th 2009. I am honored by the support of 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. I will be meeting with Dale Boone and Darrell Campbell from EveryCarListed.Com to narrow down the applicants to select the six “best of the best” to serve on the senior advisory panel and to contribute articles and reciprocal links to the portal. At this time we have commitments from more qualified candidates than we can invite, however, our first confirmed member is Ralph Paglia, the host of an auto industry networking site that I personally support, www.automotivedigitalmarketing.com ,(ADM). Ralph is the National Director of Digital Marketing for ADP and he also hosts a blog talk radio show on AdAgencyOnline.Net called, “Lunch With Ralph Discussing Automotive Advertising.” I anticipate that some of the other panel members will be selected from guests that I have interviewed on another of our blog talk radio shows, “Automotive Advertising Experts.”

The auto industry is demanding reductions in automotive advertising budgets and social networking sites have attracted a growing audience of consumers as well as auto dealers. Ad Agency Online, L.L.C. and AdAgencyOnline.Net feature technology and internet resources to monitor and manage automotive advertising to maximize the R.O.I. for their auto dealer clients.
