MANAGED INVENTORY POSTING

Our expert staff will fully manage posting your inventory to Craigslist.  We manage your postings, so you don’t have to. Focus on selling cars, not listing cars for sale.

DEALERS CHOICE REPORTING

Our advanced reporting allows you to track all elements of your Craigslist posting. Collect and record all calls, texts, emails, and even clicks.  It’s like having your own personal assistant!

OPTIMIZED LISTINGS

When a user searches for a keyword, Craigslist now uses an algorithm to decide which posts show at the top of the Search Results Page—NOT how recent the vehicle was listed. In order to satisfy the algorithm, listings now require specific attention to detail and data, something our program has perfected.

AUTO PULL & UPDATE

Your inventory will always be accurate and up to date!  If anything changes in your inventory feed, we update your listing immediately including new photos, price updates and description changes.

SMART POSTING

Our program uses science to pull vehicles from your inventory which are also trending in your market. We then post those items on peak days and times, and track the data throughout the 30 day posting period.

RECYCLED SOLD INVENTORY

Instead of deleting an ad when a vehicle sells, why not use that ad space to sell another vehicle? With Ad Recycling, you’re now able to take full advantage of your ads. We automatically swap your sold unit with another fresh vehicle.

PPC & SEM For Auto Dealerships

Pay-Per-Click Advertising (PPC)

Pay-Per-Click Advertising or PPC is a relatively straightforward concept. The amount you pay for your ad space is determined by the number of visitors who click on the ad which leads to your website. Upon using our services, you’ll be assigned a designated account manager to ensure that you are selecting the appropriate keywords and reducing the possibility of accidental clicks.

 

Search Engine Marketing (SEM)

Search engine marketing, SEM, is very similar to PPC, but typically refers to buying paid advertisements that will be displayed at the top of search engine rankings while including more approaches.

 

Why Use PPC or SEM?

1. See nearly instant boosts in customer traffic.
2. Advertise temporary or seasonal deals.
3. Drive customers to your dealership when you have an inventory surplus.

Our PPC and SEM services help you advertise wisely. Let our online marketing experts determine which ad placements and keywords will lead to high quality sales leads and conversion rates for your car dealership.

Direct Mail Marketing

Our niche programs and technology enable us to deliver superior direct mail results to our customers. We have maintained over a 90% customer retention rate, unheard of in the automotive direct mail business. Our dedication to customer service is unparalleled.  Promote New and Pre-Owned Inventory and all department specials with our Direct Mailers. All mailers are eligible for co-op programs. We ensure 24 hour custom artwork turn-around.

 

You should focus on selling cars,
We’ll take care of the mail!

Craigslist Automated Posting Software for Car Dealers

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. I’ve advertised on Craigslist before. Has anything changed over the last 5 years?

Yes, a lot has changed. Craigslist Auto now charges $5 per listing and uses algorithms to filter out “junk postings” and help Craiglist search results be more relevant to the consumer. Instead of basing which listings show first solely on what time they were posted, vehicle posts can now “beat the clock”: older posts can show first by simply being more appealing and being optimized to satisfy the Craigslist algorithm.

2. Why should I avoid managing my own Craigslist inventory posting?

Your inventory, pricing, and vehicle info are constantly changing. An automated solution synced with your website is the only way to stay current and keep your inventory listings up to date.

Plus, there are 13 steps involved in creating a Craigslist vehicle listing from start to finish, and that doesn’t involve maintaining, updating, and refreshing them. Keeping on top of this for your entire used inventory simply isn’t a time-efficient solution!

3. What’s the “science” behind posting on Craigslist?

Craigslist Auto now uses an algorithm to decide which vehicle listings should show at the top of the Search Results Page (SRP). And our program has nailed that algorithm using data and science, A/B/C testing hundreds of variations of listing templates to see which one is truly the “champion” when it comes to getting to the top of the SRP.

4. What makes Dealers Choice's Craigslist Posting tool different than others?

  1. Everything we do is based on data and science: not gut feelings.
  2. Our design templates beat any other competitors’.
  3. We include “Full Reporting” with call tracking and by-vehicle reporting for your market.
  4.  Our system knows the best time and day to post each vehicle.
  5.  We automatically detect when you sell a vehicle and will swap a new vehicle in place of the old ad without any additional charge (nobody else does this!).

Pay-Per Click & Search Engine Marketing for Car Dealers

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. How long will it take to get up and running with a new PPC provider?

We allow 7-10 business days for our PPC solution to be activated once your website provider places our tracking code on your site.

2. Will my Quality Score be affected if I switch PPC providers?

No! Quality Score is domain driven. As long as you shut off your current provider, your Quality Score shouldn’t be affected. In fact, most clients experience a higher Quality Score within the first 30 days on our program.

3. How much should my ad spend be?

Every dealership’s market is different. Typically we suggest sticking with your current PPC budget (for the first 30 days) to let our team gain true insight on your local market before making any recommendations.

We use a data driven approach and will help your dealership understand the online opportunities and recommend budget changes as seen fit. We find that most of our dealers are grossly under-spending and not leveraging all the tools and data available to them.

4. Can I change my budget?

Absolutely—anytime! In fact, we offer a flat rate management fee and load your credit card directly into Google AdWords.

5. Is this solution right for me?

This solution is perfect for you if you:

  • +  Want to dominate the internet with your dealership’s brand and link to the most relevant page on your website
  • +  Want your ads to increase brand awareness and sell new inventory
  • +  Want more bang for your buck and avoid spending costs on specific vehicle copy and graphics
  • +  Want to rise above other cookie-cutter PPC solutions without breaking the bank
  • +  Use or have used an OEM recommended solution
  • +  Want to dominate your local search and nearby competition
  • +  Want to reduce your defect rate (AOR/PMA shoppers buying from your competitor)

  • +  Want to retarget website visitors with the exact vehicle they viewed on your site
  • +  Want a fully automated, cookie cutter solution that can often cost more and be less effective
