WITH just two weeks to go, Car Dealer Magazine is pleased to announce that Brad Little of Facebook London will join the ever-growing list of big names at CDX16.
Little, pictured above, holds the title of group head of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), entertainment and automotive, and is set to talk us through the dominating world of digital communications and how the social media giant can help dealers improve their businesses online.
He joined Facebook London in 2013, where he leads client teams and works with agencies and partners to drive business results on Facebook and Instagram.
Before going to Facebook, Little spent nearly 12 years at the global research company Nielsen, with roles in New York and London.
He said: ‘FMCG are some of the world’s biggest advertisers and working on their brand initiatives has a lot of relevance to automotive as well.
‘Facebook and Instagram combine an unrivalled daily scale and the ability to use precision in effectively targeting people likely to be in-market. This is all happening on mobile, capitalising on the rapid consumer shift to this format.
‘Traditionally, we have worked closely with OEMs on their launch, branding and lead-generation initiatives. More recently, our local capabilities have evolved to deliver exceptional leads at scale for dealers and groups.
‘Overall, the combination of scale, precision, mobile, accountability and ease of implementation create the right ingredients for Facebook and Instagram to be the next key channel to deliver significant results for the auto industry.’
Little replaces Harry Melsom in our line-up of industry-leading speakers on the Car Dealer Live stage.
