Chicago IL, September 30, 2012 – Automotive Internet Media’s new CarClicks advertising program exceeds all company expectations in first month.
AIM’s CarClicks program drives auto consumers shopping on independent automotive sites directly to the dealership’s website. Dealership inventory is displayed with priority placement on a network of automotive shopping sites. When auto shoppers click on the dealership’s listing, they are taken directly to the vehicle detail page on the dealership’s website.
“We’ve had an incredible start with the launch of our CarClicks program,” said Tony French, President of Automotive Internet Media. “We had some very good operating dealerships and dealer groups sign up for the new program.”
The program is also gaining popularity with online publishers. The company is in various stages of adding many new automotive shopping websites.
CarClicks is a new way for dealers to get more exposure to their inventory but is leveraging a network of sites that have been providing leads to dealerships for years. Fewer and fewer consumers want to put in their personal information into a 3rd party lead form and feel more comfortable dealing directly with the dealership that has the vehicle they are interested in. CarClicks provides an effective way for dealers to leverage their website that they invest thousands of dollars optimizing with chat features, tracking numbers, lead forms and other tools to help increase conversion.
“Our program is resonating with dealers for three reasons,” French continued. “First, you can track the results in Google analytics and see the traffic that’s being driven to your website. Second, it’s affordable and you can set whatever budget you’d like. The daily spend is entirely up to the dealer. And finally, it’s a month to month agreement and the dealer can either cancel or pause the program whenever they’d like.”
The program works best for stores that understand how to leverage the power of the internet to sell vehicles. Dealerships that use market-pricing and take great photos are getting the best results and more clicks.
Automotive Internet Media is working with a handful of top 20 dealer groups and in discussions with many others. The advertising program has gained quick exposure from many other larger dealerships across the country looking for ways to enhance their online traffic to sell more vehicles.
“Dealers are looking for ways to drive quality traffic to their inventory and website,” said French. And, the best part about CarClicks is it’s a pay for performance program, dealers only get charged when we drive a consumer that is interested in their vehicle to their website.”

Chicago IL, July 31, 2012 – Automotive Internet Media, a leading provider of internet marketing services to the auto industry launches AIM’s CarClicks to drive more auto shoppers to dealership websites.
AIM’s CarClicks is the first program to offer dealerships the ability to drive auto consumers shopping on independent automotive sites directly to the dealership’s website. Dealership inventory is displayed with priority placement on a network of automotive shopping sites. When auto shoppers click on the dealership’s listing, they are taken directly to the vehicle detail page on the dealership’s website.
“We believe that CarClicks will quickly become one of the most effective and efficient marketing programs in the automotive industry,” said Tony French, President of Automotive Internet Media. “Dealers market their inventory to millions of online shoppers and they only pay a small fee when an actual shoppers in interested in their vehicle.”
Online shoppers who are deep in the sales funnel are taken directly to the dealership site where they have one of many ways of getting in contact with the dealership. The consumer can communicate with the dealership based on the conversion tools on their site (i.e., phone, chat, lead form, etc.). It‘s known that dealer websites are far better at converting sales when compared to 3^rd party lead forms and other marketing efforts. CarClicks’ objective is to drive the online shopper directly to the dealership website.
AIM’s CarClicks works like a form of Pay Per Click advertising but only targets auto shoppers who are deep in the purchasing funnel interested in a specific vehicle.
Here’s how it works: The consumer is shopping in one of the CarClicks network of automotive sites; they’ve modified the search results to find a specific make & model around their zip code and are reviewing the many pages of results. Consumers can view the picture of the vehicle, year-make-model, color, mileage & price. If they want to find out more about a particular car they click into the vehicle detail page but instead of landing the consumer on shopping site’s page we drive the consumer directly to the dealership website. When the consumer clicks on a specific car the dealerships is charged a very small fee. It’s very efficient in buying targeted and quality traffic.
“Dealers are tired of paying thousands of dollars for leads that aren’t converting,” French continued. “Our program drives quality, yet inexpensive traffic directly the dealership where consumer’s feels more comfortable communicating with a local business.”
Similar to Pay Per Click programs, AIM’s CarClicks allows dealerships the ability to set a daily ad budget. Once the budget is met, CarClicks no longer drives the consumer to the dealership’s website but continues to promote the vehicle through traditional 3^rd party sites vehicle detail page promotion. Dealerships can monitor their daily budget and results through the CarClicks’ backend software and through their website analytics.
