Automotive vendors, why do you have to re-purpose the same old crap? Did you know that your video length is twice the average attention span of people who watch online videos?

Is 3 and a half minutes the average attention span of people who watch online videos? I didn't think it was that long.

I don't know many other vendors that do video but I'd say that it's not as unacceptable when it's in this type of format, if I hadn't seen the socialnomics videos I'd likely sit through this whole thing because it's engaging and give that WOW IMHO. I'd sit through the entire thing.
It being a complete rip off on the other hand....
It being a complete rip off on the other hand.... But where's the study that says "Car Dealers increase their business, on average, 14% using social media." Entertaining, perhaps ... But mostly hype and crap.
IF this video is true, then Joe should just pack it up and go into early retirement.

HMMM I had to scan through this again, I truly didn't think there was anything to do with automotive. Even after scanning I didn't see anything that said average 14% increase... can you imagine what the top of the top increased if that stat has any basis. I smell .
I thought it was nothing but a hack job on the end to include contact info and simply used the socialnomics video.

I've spoke to Tim before about using wikimotive for our dealerships and he seemed like a good guy, I'm surprised he'd put such a video together. I'd hope he has the stats to back it up.
