Management of Advertising & Marketing Vendors
Dealership management can waste valuable selling time while meeting with sales representatives.
We handle all communications with sales representatives. Simply take two minutes to direct them to Missam. All proposals will be reviewed and negotiated. A formal recommendation will be submitted to management if an opportunity aligns with dealership goals and strategy.
In addition, we manage all advertising/marketing vendors currently utilized by the dealership. This would include digital media and internet partners.
Planning & Placement of Traditional & Digital Media
After review and negotiation of proposals, a plan will then be presented to management for review.
Upon approval, Missam will place the media. Missam is a recognized media firm which means a 15% commission from traditional media vendors. This commission is returned giving
the dealership 115% efficiency on every one dollar spent.
