Montway has hand-selected professionals in place that partner with dealers to establish clear goals, Service Level Agreements, and key performance indicators, managing the client relationship, reporting on performance and KPIs, and evaluating business strategies. With ongoing inventory challenges, dealers are sourcing units from auctions outside of their local markets — 40% of those moves are greater than 150 miles, out of range for local auction transporters — creating a need for reliable, nationwide auto transportation services. This makes Montway's buyer squarely the same person reading DealerRefresh: GMs, dealer principals, used car directors, and internet/BDC managers making sourcing and logistics decisions daily. **DealerRefresh product fit:** - **Forum Banners** — Ideal for brand awareness with the 3,000+ daily auto retail pros making or influencing auction sourcing and transport decisions. Montway is aligning its technology with the complexities of dealer operations to help transform logistics into a strategic asset, giving executive teams full transparency and centralized control over their multi-rooftop inventory — a message that resonates directly with GMs and dealer principals. - **Retargeting Pixel** — Strong fit. Millennials and Gen Z are taking the wheel in the car-buying market, and as these digital natives demand convenience, efficiency, and personalized experiences, dealerships are adapting to meet their expectations. Retargeting DealerRefresh visitors on Facebook/Instagram keeps Montway's dealer-facing message in front of decision-makers across channels. - **Demo / Review Video** — Excellent fit, and there is already proven precedent: Montway's Executive VP of Business Development Mike Trudeau has already appeared in a DealerRefresh webcast discussing finished vehicle logistics. A Demo/Review video with Alex & Jeff would be a natural follow-up, showcasing the Montway Automation Portal and LoadMate Pro to an audience actively evaluating logistics tools. - **Sponsored Forum Post** — High value for Montway's SEO and B2B content strategy.
