Superlatives, our dynamic inventory merchandising solution, does two things very well:
  1. Provides talk tracks to sales and BDC teams to help build value and create urgency when working with consumers to find their next car.
  2. Showcases to consumers the features that dealers haven’t been able to effectively merchandise yet, making these consumers more engaged on the website.
In today’s post, we’ll explore this second topic more in-depth.
Marketing teams spend a lot of money to drive visitors to their websites. That money goes to TV, radio, print, paid search & social, search engine marketing, email marketing, and everything else. When people get there, you want them to stick around, and to do that, you need to provide them with valuable information.
Superlatives does just that, and we’ve got the data to back it up. We worked with numerous customers to evaluate their Google Analytics data, and share their anonymized results here.

With website traffic being more valuable today than ever, Superlatives presents a new opportunity to significantly increase engagement with your visitors by moving the merchandising from the windshield to the website.

Are you using Superlatives on your dealership website? If so, are you tracking the user engagement?
 
I’ve always been a fan of superlatives. Many people are visual, so providing a relevant feature icon really helps to provide a better shopping experience. Of course the superlatives need to highlight the most important and sought after features.

@Brice Englert looking at your current data, which superlatives are the most important to showcase?
