AS THE saying goes, the times they are a-changing. In previous years, we have recognised and honoured the most influential car dealers on Twitter at our annual CDX event – but new for 2017, we are including many more platforms.
CDX17 is just 11 days away now and those who have been shortlisted for our new Social Media 200 Awards have already been informed by Twitter, so make sure you’ve checked to book your place.
It’s official – there is not one social media channel that stands above the rest and Klout recognises that.
Yes, Klout, that curious way of measuring how influential you are on social media, is assessing all the channels you use all of the time.
And as we all know, that list can include Facebook, Instagram, Google Plus, LinkedIn, Foursquare, Wikipedia and Twitter.
Because of this, we are have revamped the Most Influential Dealers on Twitter Awards for 2017 and are now welcoming ALL social media champions to the shiny new Social Media 200 session. The only place to find out where you’ve ranked will be at CDX17, with the results unveiled in an exclusive session for those who have made our shortlist.

This list of the most influential car dealers has been judged in the same way as in previous years, based on the highest Klout scores, but this time it has also taken into account a company’s combined Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn followers.
If two companies have the same Klout score, their places in the list will have been determined by the combined following they have across these platforms, making this the most comprehensive form of the list yet.
As in previous years, there will also be a series of awards up for grabs for those who have proved to have engaged and reached the biggest audience in the past 12 months.
