Dealer Impact Systems Debuts Custom Option Allowing Auto Dealerships to Offer Specials Exclusively to Those Who "Like" The Dealership Facebook Page

February 9, 2011 (Des Moines, IA) –Dealer Impact Systems has debuted a custom Facebook option to its Internet Marketing and Digital Reach Program. This new custom offering makes it possible for auto dealerships to create "specials" accessible only to Facebook users who have "liked" the dealership’s page. Users who attempt to view the dealership’s Facebook specials are directed to a screen requiring that they "Like" the page before they can view the online offers. Once the users hit the "Like" button, they are able to access the information.

This new feature makes it possible for dealers to offer specials exclusively to their Facebook fans.

Customized for Each Dealership

The new capability is handled with three distinct custom screens.

1. Screen One consists of a single image directing the Facebook user to "Like" the page in order to access the Special.
2. Screen Two is a custom HTML-based page containing dealer-directed images, text, links and/or a form.
3. Screen Three is optional and based on the content of screen two. For example, if a form is submitted, screen three will be a "thank you for your submission" page.

Dealers can update, change or remove a Facebook-accessed special at any time. It is an ideal application for dealerships that often promote specials or exclusives through their Facebook pages. There is an initial $300 design and set up fee and a $50 per month service administration fee. Advertising design is charged on a per ad basis.

Because this is a totally custom program feature, each dealer's Specials page will look and function slightly differently, however customers interested in seeing this feature in action can visit this fanpage example here.

Dealer Impact Systems will work with dealer customers to deter the use of this new Special feature as a tool for spamming Facebook friends and fans. "Used within the guidelines of Facebook, this capability can be a powerful communication tool for auto dealerships," said Brian Cox, president and CEO of Dealer Impact Systems.
