Jumpstart Revs Up Next Generation of Automotive Leads

Jumpstart Automotive Media, which has partnered with leading automotive web publishers to aggregate the Internet’s largest community of car shoppers, today introduced new online products which will enable auto dealers to increase their volume of high quality leads.

The enhancement, which Jumpstart will launch to its new car lead product next week, gives auto dealers the opportunity for a flat fee to have their dealership name and phone number locally targeted and highlighted on in-market car research sites like NADA Guides and Consumer Guide. Previously, only national advertisers were able to advertise in this space. Now with this deal the phone number will live on the pricing pages and will connect directly to the dealership. Additionally, emails will be sent to dealers for every phone call placed which will include name, phone number and time of call.

In a press statement, Jumpstart SVP of Dealer Sales Rob Bollinger says, “This is a great opportunity to capture potential customers who do not like to fill out e-mail leads. There are a large number of customers who prefer phone to e-mail. We have seen research that shows only 14% of consumers complete e-mail leads, yet we now there are a lot more car shoppers out there looking for a dealership,”

Bollinger adds, “These leads are expected to be of the highest quality since customers know exactly which dealer they are calling opposed to many e-mail leads that can come blindly through lead brokerage services. Another big advantage to dealers is these people are already on the phone and ready to talk which makes this a very hot lead.”

Also starting next week, Jumpstart will build a customized, searchable landing page for every dealer who signs onto its lead program for no charge to the dealership. Each landing page will feature the name of the dealership, an Internet Sales Manager name (if desired), sales phone number and a service phone number.

• Right now, at the beginning of 2012, what are you watching the most closely for its ad and marketing opportunities?

  • Mobile. Smart devices have become standard, and advertising is only going to become more creative there.
  • Online video. It's a real competitor to TV now, and it presents really interesting ways to engage viewers.
  • Social media. The new Facebook timeline and the surge of Google+ have cracked the game wide open again.
  • Tempting as it might be, I don't want to get too involved in one aspect.
