When: Monday, November 28th, 2016. 10:00am – 1:00pm

What: A lunch-and-learn for Canadian auto dealers to learn about paid advertising that drives sales on Facebook & Instagram

The Opportunity

Facebook & Instagram are two of the biggest social media platforms in the world.

Many dealers have been posting on these platforms organically, building a small community and in some cases promoting their posts to expand their reach beyond their current audience.

While this is valuable, few dealerships have been leveraging the powerful ad engine behind both platforms and that is the focus of Beyond Likes: Driving Sales with Facebook & Instagram.

The advertising engine behind Facebook and Instagram allows dealers to fulfill goals in all areas of their business from new to service, used to credit and everything in between.

Acura of Hamilton has been successfully using this platform to drive affordable credit leads and have turned these leads into sales. Read their success story here: http://www.edealer.ca/driving-finance-leads-facebook-success-story/
