Frequently Asked Questions

Our manufacturer provides social media content—why do we need our own strategy?+
OEM content is designed to build the brand nationally, not sell cars in your specific location. It doesn't speak to your community, your team, your local inventory, or your customer stories. Local social content converts at dramatically higher rates because it feels real. We use OEM assets as a foundation and build your authentic dealership identity on top.
Which social platforms matter most for automotive businesses?+
Instagram and Facebook for consumer-facing sales content. YouTube for long-form reviews and model walkarounds. TikTok for younger buyer demographic reach. LinkedIn for fleet and B2B vehicle sales. We map the right mix to your vehicle category and target buyer profile.
How do we measure which social content is actually driving test drives?+
We track every social post to a conversion goal—test drive booking forms, phone call CTAs, or dealership website visits. UTM parameters and pixel tracking give us clear attribution. You know exactly which post or campaign drove the inquiry.
Can social media help with used vehicle sales as well as new?+
Used vehicles often perform better on social than new—buyers are highly price-sensitive and research-driven, and a well-presented used car post reaches motivated buyers instantly. We build separate content tracks for new and used inventory, each with the right messaging and targeting.
