The Bosch website program from TCS has allowed me to quickly build a presence on the Internet for the search terms that drive business for me. In addition, I have been able to customize my website on my own which was important to my staff. stated Tony Barbee of MB Mercedes BMW Mini in Huntersville, NC.

Top PR and Internet Marketing Agency Now Offering Services In Orlando

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) November 11, 2013

After launching in Jacksonville, Fla., Boundless Agency is turning to Central Florida for much needed help hiring and an opportunity to expand their range of potential clients.

We hit a point were we need to quickly expand our talented team, and we are struggling in Jacksonville to identify the people with the right skill sets, said Director of Enchantment Justin Root. Im sure there are a lot of talented people in northeast Florida, but we are having trouble finding them.

Boundless Agency is a hybrid public relations and Internet marketing agency. Recent changes in the media landscape pushed the agency to marry public relations skills with Internet marketing skills. The result is an approach to public relations that can build brand awareness, generate leads and convert leads to sales.

Coming up through PR agencies, I was always concerned with how we measured our ROI, said Root. The method we have developed allows us to tie our work to the bottom line. We dont quantify empty metrics. We directly grow small and medium businesses.

Boundless Agencys pioneering approach is based on blending traditional public relations tactics with marketing automation and conversion architecture. The agency balances public relations and Internet marketing through a four-step process.

The first step is the discovery stage. The team at Boundless Agency employs media relations tactics, search engine optimization and social media strategies to drive traffic to a clients website.

As visitor traffic starts to build, the second step of the process comes into focus: convert these visitors into leads. Boundless Agency produces valuable incentives for these visitors and asks the client to give the incentive away in exchange for an email address and name.

We want our clients to build mutually beneficial relationships with their customers right off the bat, so we recommend clients give away valuable information and ask their potential customers to reciprocate with an email address for more valuable information in the future, said Root.

Once an email address is collected. Boundless Agency relies on marketing automation technology to help clients build relationships with these potential customers and generate new business.

Financing Tools Deliver the Most Valuable Website Leads, According to Auto Dealer Internet Marketing Survey by AutoUSA

Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) November 11, 2013

AutoUSA Internet Sales Solutions (http://www.AutoUSADealers.com) today announced the results of its 2013 annual auto dealer Internet Marketing survey. Financing tools such as online credit applications and trade-in calculators deliver the most valuable website leads, according to respondents. Other significant results from the survey identify pricing and affordability as the most commonly heard sales objection from consumers, while Internet departments' biggest challenges include lead volume and staffing issues.

"We believe the most successful dealerships have effective Internet marketing strategies, and this annual survey helps to identify how well some of those strategies are performing in current market conditions," said Phil DuPree, President of AutoUSA Internet Sales Solutions.

The survey was conducted during September and October and summarizes results from 147 respondents, including Internet sales managers, sales managers, BDC marketing and senior management.

Customer Sales Objections

When asked what the most common sales objection is from customers, the top response was "our price not in line with customer expectations" (28 percent). Other responses were "customer can't get financing" (19 percent), "customer confidence with the economy" (14 percent) and "customer can't afford a new vehicle" (12 percent).

By contrast, in AutoUSA's 2011 Internet marketing survey, not meeting the customers' price expectations was the least-common objection (10 percent). Also in 2011 "didn't have desired model available" was the most common sales objection (25 percent), followed by "can't afford a new vehicle" (14 percent).

"The difference in sales objections compared with two years ago is consistent with what we see in the marketplace; consumers are finding ways to work themselves through the process and further down-funnel," said DuPree. "And while the economy may have improved somewhat, pricing and affordability are still major hurdles for many consumers."

Internet Department Challenges

Survey results indicate that dealership Internet departments are facing a new challenge in 2013. "Not enough leads" (26 percent) is the most cited challenge for Internet departments, which is quite a turnaround from two years ago, when "keeping up with lead volume" (31 percent) was the number one challenge.
