Norfolk, VA – Nov. 1, 2010 – BoatTrader.com, a division of Dominion Enterprises, has partnered with Boating Industry magazine to host a series of three Webinars targeted to marine dealers nationwide. The first of the series, “Drive Traffic to Your Dealership with a Minimal Budget,” will be held on November 4 at 1 p.m. CST.
“We understand that marketing funds may not be as readily available as they used to be,” said Kim Rocco, brand manager, Boat Trader.com. “But we want our dealers to know there are still creative ways to market your online dealership effectively – even with limited resources and budgets. We’re excited to host this Webinar and share insider tips with our dealers to help them maximize their ROI by capitalizing on their online traffic.”
Dealers have been forced to slash marketing budgets because of the poor economy, but there are ways to drive traffic with a minimal investment. In this Webinar, the first in a series, David Main, head of search for Boats Group; Kevin Zoodsma, head of online marketing at Action Water Sports; and Mike Davin, online editor for Boating Industry, will talk about ways to market boat dealerships online without breaking the bank.
