(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 22, 2009 ) PORTLAND, OREGON (December 21, 2009) – Car dealerships and traders throughout Oregon can now enjoy affordable online advertising thanks to Portland Car trading site Automoxie.com.
It is well known that the recession hit the auto industry really hard. With people afraid to spend money on high dollar items, auto dealerships were placed in a real dilemma. With low sales volume, the need to advertise, especially online, became even more important than ever. However, online and offline advertising comes with a price that many small businesses could not and cannot afford.
A well-known auto listing site Autotrader.com, charges $20.00 per listing for three weeks and one photograph. That is currently the cheapest package available online. Another problem for smaller dealerships and private users, is that the more one pays to the site, the higher the listing appears on any given page. This gives larger businesses a preferred status. Automoxie.com is a more democratic online vehicle listing site charging a flat $1.00 per car listing fee, no matter what the size of the dealership or private trader.
When potential buyers come to the site, they can search for what they want based on make, model, MPG, price, color, and other specific features. Automoxie owner Mike Strain said, “Searchability is a main focus of our site…we even allow users to use an affordability calculator to find the car they can afford based on the monthly payment they have in mind.”
Automoxie.comÂ’s sole purpose is to provide a very easy to use site, with flat low fees, no clutter or advertising, searchability, and integration of social media. Simplicity is key.
About:
Although currently focusing on Portland and the state of Oregon, future plans are to also target the northwest area and then the rest of the United States. Strain believes that by geographically targeting specific areas in the country, the advertising customer will have an enormous resource at his fingertips at an affordable price.
