Daytona Beach, FL–March 19, 2013 – DMEautomotive (DMEa), the science-inspired, results-based automotive marketing leader, announces the fifth in a series of webinars the company is hosting with Automotive News.

“Smartphone adoption is happening ten times faster than the ‘80s PC revolution, and twice as fast as the ‘90s Internet boom,” said Mike Walther, president and CEO of DMEautomotive. “But, in spite of the fact that half of all consumers are dedicated app users, only one-in-ten reports having a dealership app. This is a dealership/customer app gap that this webinar seeks to address and help dealers to bridge.  And it is not just us talking: we will show eye-opening results from dealerships that are already leveraging app technology to communicate with, retain and drive service loyalty with their customers.”

A Step-by-Step Guide to Building a Killer Dealer App will be moderated by Jim Treece, Industry Editor at Automotive News, and features Mike Martinez, CMO of DMEautomotive, who authored the eBook The Pocket Revolution: The Complete Guide to a Killer App. The information-packed webinar will provide a straightforward, data-backed game plan to help dealerships get up and running with an app, including:
