Digital Air Strike Awarded and Speaking at Two Industry Events Showcasing CX Tech That Solves Top Automotive Challenges

Leading consumer engagement and customer experience technology company presenting expert strategies and receiving awards chosen by dealers

Digital Air Strike, the leading consumer engagement and customer experience (CX) technology company, is sharing proven solutions at Used Car Week and Industry Summit to solve pressing automotive challenges the industry faces. Digital Air Strike provides strategy and technology to acquire and sell inventory, promote trade-ins and buyback offers, and deliver high-quality responses to help over 7,000 clients more effectively respond to consumer inquiries for sales and service.

Used inventory is a challenging issue for dealers across the country. Vehicle inventory, especially pre-owned, is one of the dealerships’ most significant assets, even with prices declining daily. Digital Air Strike provides the technology to help dealers sell their vehicles and acquire new inventory on top sites where consumers are actively shopping, including Google, Facebook, and Instagram. Digital Air Strike places a dealership’s used and new vehicles at the top of Google search with Google Vehicle Ads. Potential car buyers who click on the ad are re-directed to the dealership’s VDP (Vehicle Details Page). Digital Air Strike also offers double opt-in ads on Facebook and Instagram that deliver high-intent traffic to a dealer-branded search results page and, ultimately, the dealership’s VDPs.

“Consumers can easily find our vehicles on Facebook and Google,” said Erika Maley, marketing director of Don Hattan Dealerships. “Digital Air Strike’s technology ensures in-market shoppers see our inventory and the price. Google Vehicle Ads puts our inventory side by side with online-only competitors, and Digital Air Strike’s VDP Power Social on Facebook and Instagram helps keep our overhead low. This is really important because it’s all about getting the right vehicle, price, and picture in front of the consumer.”

Once the car buyer has requested information about a vehicle, the company’s patented lead response and follow-up technology ensure consistent, professional communication with consumers. Every potential car buyer is nurtured and engaged, so they want to buy from the dealership. Digital Air Strike’s post-transaction survey and review technology requests give dealerships the feedback needed to increase five-star reviews, improve online reputation, and build customer loyalty.

Digital Air Strike will showcase its award-winning CX technology and expertise at Used Car Week 2022, Nov. 14-17, in San Diego. The event is presented by Cherokee Media Group, publisher of Auto Remarketing, Auto Remarketing Canada, SubPrime Auto Finance News, and Auto Fin Journal.

Digital Air Strike was also invited to share digital marketing strategies at Industry Summit, Nov. 14-16 in Las Vegas, presented by Bobit Business Media, publishers of Auto Dealer Today, F&I and Showroom, and Agent Entrepreneur.

“It’s extremely gratifying to know we are the partner top dealers and OEMs choose to help provide the best customer experience,” said Alexi Venneri, co-founder and CEO of Digital Air Strike. “Twelve years ago, we started the company to support dealers during the Great Recession. We continue to offer innovative technology to engage with consumers online and through omnichannel communication, including A.I. messaging. As the industry and shopping behaviors have evolved, we’ve continued to build over 160 data integrations to enable dealers to connect with consumers in new ways, leverage technology to convert shoppers into buyers, and build customer loyalty.”
