AutoHook Powered by Urban Science Names SOCIALDEALER an Official API Partner

AutoHook powered by Urban Science announced their official partnership with SOCIALDEALER, the leading provider of social media marketing and reputation management for the automotive industry. As part of their API Partner Program, SOCIALDEALER will have access to AutoHook’s exclusive redemption platform and award-winning attribution engine at no cost to them or their dealer clients.

DETROIT, MICHIGAN (PRWEB) APRIL 12, 2017

SOCIALDEALER can now plug in AutoHook’s private offers and showroom visit validation data to further increase lead conversion rates and prove in-store sales attributed to their specific social campaigns. Integrating with AutoHook’s API allows them to provide dealers with targeted incentives within Facebook Ad Units and Facebook Messenger.

Mutual dealer clients of both AutoHook and SOCIALDEALER will be able to add AutoHook’s private offers into their ad campaigns run through SOCIALDEALER. Through a vast network of data partners, SOCIALDEALER will use AutoHook’s redemption rail system to serve inventory-specific test-drive offers with prepopulated form fields, so all the customer has to do is hit submit. Conversion will increase because the lead form is already filled out with the shopper’s name and contact information.

This partnership is so powerful because it makes it faster and easier for consumers to submit a lead for a test drive while engaging with a dealer’s social content. Incentive offers will be inventory-specific and fully customizable. For instance, if a customer looks at a vehicle on a dealer’s website and later goes on Facebook, SOCIALDEALER will strategically plug in AutoHook’s incentive offers in a very targeted, mobile-optimized way that no one else on the market can execute.

AutoHook leads the industry in driving quality showroom traffic into dealerships at an extremely low cost per sale. Furthermore, powered by Urban Science sales match data, AutoHook has created a truly unparalleled attribution engine, allowing them to provide reporting that proves their solutions resulted in incremental sales and new to brand buyers for dealers and OEMs.

“The beauty in this partnership is that we can inextricably follow the consumer’s purchase journey across social channels to further validate the source that led to a sale,” said David Metter, President of AutoHook powered by Urban Science. “With consumer engagement metrics rising on social media, this partnership is the ideal opportunity to provide additional ROI to dealers without charging integration fees.”

Dealers typically incur a cost when two vendors integrate their technologies with one another, but that is not the case with AutoHook’s API Partner Program. This is the type of partnership that benefits both dealers and online vehicle consumers. “There are two main reasons why this partnership just makes sense and is what dealers have been looking for. First, it provides an online incentive to a highly-engaged car shopper, in a social way. Second, as we know, dealers must track ROI, increase showroom visits, and increase sales. As the first social media agency to bring an ROI platform to market, SOCIALDEALER understands defining ROI. This is the next level of attribution that no one else in market is providing, and why we chose to partner with AutoHook," says Sean Seltzer, CEO of SOCIALDEALER.

By integrating AutoHook's Open API into SOCIALDEALER’S Media platform, dealers now have a one-stop shop in offering incentives across all consumer touch points including their website, dynamic display pages, lead ads, and Messenger AI, all through Facebook’s ad platform.

AutoHook Powered by Urban Science Provides Open API Access to Their Industry Leading Redemption Platform and Attribution Engine at No Cost

AutoHook powered by Urban Science announced they are providing all vendors with free and open access to their private offer and redemption API in efforts to streamline and advance actionable automotive data.

DETROIT, MICHIGAN (PRWEB) JANUARY 24, 2017

AutoHook has taken the first official step towards unifying quality data to improve sales attribution metrics and validate marketing initiatives for both dealers and manufacturers - while allowing preferred technology providers and agencies to simultaneously “ride the rails.”

“Our goal is to create one railroad system, fueled by the data that vitalizes all partner solutions in order to unite the automotive universe and change it for the better,” says David Metter, President of AutoHook powered by Urban Science. “In a world where everyone charges to be connected, we want to be the player to not charge so that we can connect stronger.”

Dealers typically have to pay a fee for vendors to integrate with other providers. AutoHook is opening their API for the purpose of sharing information for the benefit of all parties involved. Today’s dealerships fight a collective battle against two ongoing challenges that waste time, energy and money. The largest pain point being the overwhelming lack of access to accurate, timely sales data. The second problem is the disconnects, or holes in communication that form when two vendors don’t work properly together, thus creating cracks in the industry’s ability to attribute sales to a single source.

“There are a million different ways to drive traffic into a dealership, but there’s only one showroom. AutoHook has laid the redemption rails within thousands of dealerships across the country, serving multiple manufacturers and it’s time to open this up to further assist our dealer and OEM clients,” adds Metter.

Since 2011, AutoHook has served the industry by accurately driving and measuring showroom visits through their private test drive incentive platform. In 2015, AutoHook was acquired by Urban Science and has since had access to near real-time sales performance data, allowing them to provide the industry’s most reliable and up-to-date attribution metrics. Vendors will have free access to AutoHook’s API along with their showroom visit attribution reporting. In addition, they can utilize AutoHook’s unique code generation technology in order to track specific user behavior. Participants will also have the option to access AutoHook's unrivaled sales match validation data.

By providing free, open access to their API, AutoHook plans to create beneficial alliances that will improve conversion rates, lead generation, attributable showroom traffic, and performance reporting for all partners.
