WE’VE crunched the numbers and studied your channels to give us the top 200 dealers on social media.
We use Klout to measure how influential you are on social media, a system that is assessing all the channels you use constantly. Those channels include Facebook, Instagram, Google Plus, LinkedIn, Foursquare, Wikipedia and Twitter. That’s why we gave the Most Influential Dealers on Twitter Awards a revamp for 2017, which you can read about here.
This year at CDX we gave out nine awards to recognise car dealers making the most of different social media channels. Find out below who were the winners and where you placed in our list!
