Hello All
I am seeking some advice. I recently took a position as ISM for a new Ford Dealership that will be opening up in the next 120 days. I have not worked as an ISM before, however I have a strong background in marketing, social media and web design and development. I was also a product manager for an automotive retail marketing company for a couple of years and have done product development for online automotive marketing applications.
Since this is a new dealership I have the opportunity to structure the department from scratch. So I came here to get some advice and guidance from my peers and others within the industry.
First I would like to see if there are other resources, sites, books etc that I could purchase related to being an ISM that would be helpful.
Next I would like to get some idea of the which CRM/ILM's I should be considering and why. Which work best for the Ford Environment.
Finally if there is any other pearls of wisdom you all would like to share with me I would greatly appreciate it.
I am excited about the position and feel that my background fits well into this position.
I look forward to reading what advice and help you all have to offer. Thanks for taking the time to reply to this post.
