APTINT Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Anyone advertise or sponsor any forums? I have a lot of customer's talking about us online, and recommending us in their regional sections. I had ONE customer write us a review and post it on a couple BMW forums he was a part of, guaranteed that single post brought us 10k worth of auto work... no BS. They have some package deals that you can do, banner ads/ability to post/links etc, and we plan on being part of them once our websites are finished being redone, just thought Id ask if you all have had any experience with this subject. Any input would help, thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Auto-Links Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 All of my business is forum based. I have never done any traditional marketing and all of my advertising expenses have been sponsoring forums for 6 years. For the first 3 years in business I did not even have business cards or a web page. Problem is with the car clubs and forum users - There are a lot of people that WILL give you a hard time and want you to bend over for them. If you DON'T : they will literally smash you all over every forum they can find. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sal's House Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 We sponsor a couple of car club forums, and it's definitely worth the money. Much cheaper than traditional advertising. Just be sure that your pricing is consistent and that the service is top-notch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollmodl Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I'm a member on over 70 forums and have been using them for more that 10 years. What can you do to attract forum business? You don't have to be a forum sponsor. Answer questions on tint and educate members. This builds trust. Sponsor car clubs with specials Hold group buys Sponsor events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
