It’s amazing to watch lots of great brand names struggle with taking a consumer from their brand site to their dealer site and eventually into the store seamlessly. I don’t know if it’s worse to see dealer locators offering nothing more than a street address and link to a map or is it worse to link to the dealer’s site that is loaded with competitor’s information and promotions? Both are bad for the consumer, the brand and the dealer. |

Excerpt:
"Since the beginning of American industry, manufacturers and retailers have been waging an argument over the customer. Retailers set up a showroom, hire salespeople, run promotions and educate and sell to customers. In their minds, they “own the customer”. Manufacturers design and create products, develop pricing and promotions, research consumer trends, and market products to customers. In their minds, they “own the customer” (but in point of fact, they haven’t historically). This white paper explores ways in which savvy manufacturers are using the Web to shift the balance of power in their favor, and create a win-win scenario with their best retail partners." |
