Dealers United Helps Five Auto Dealerships Drive Success During COVID-19

SARASOTA, Fla., Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Auto dealerships across the globe have been hit hard by the pandemic and the ensuing safety requirements.

SARASOTA, Fla., Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Auto dealerships across the globe have been hit hard by the pandemic and the ensuing safety requirements. As an industry that has traditionally served customers face-to-face, dealers quickly needed to make a messaging shift for prospective buyers to ensure a safe and comfortable buying experience.

Dealers United, a Facebook-based digital advertising agency for the automotive industry, was quick to successfully help their clients pivot and navigate the business challenges presented by these uncertain times. The agency provided auto dealers nationwide with an effective toolkit to keep their brand and messaging top-of-mind within their market area. The toolkit included several ad campaign strategies and «playbooks» focusing on safe service practices and sanitation, awareness of digital retailing and at-home options, current OEM incentives and promotions, and more.

While many dealerships’ sales sank during the pandemic, Cavalier Ford Greenbriar in Chesapeake, Virginia, saw an increase, boosting sales by 26%. And in New York, Middletown Honda used Dealers United to connect with buyers and ease their concerns about shopping during the pandemic, even creating custom videos showing team members sanitizing vehicles. The result? A total of 39 sales due to viewing or clicking on a Facebook ad.

Queensbury, New York-based D’ELLA Honda credits Dealers United with helping them through the worst of COVID-19, indicating that their efforts resulted in 295 leads during this time. And over on Long Island, New York, Generation Kia earned a Facebook Resilient Business Feature by running Facebook ads for free oil changes and disinfecting services for healthcare workers, generating 42 sales attributed to Facebook and setting the stage for additional future sales. 

As featured in Automotive News, Power Ford in Albuquerque, New Mexico, shifted thousands of its advertising dollars to Facebook and has beaten its regional market new-vehicle sales average by about 12%. With Dealers United as its partner, Power Ford says that roughly 28% of its sales derived from targeted ads.

Pete Petersen, CEO of Dealers United, says, «Those who flow with the times not only survive, but ultimately thrive. Our company offers an array of Facebook advertising packages that can be customized to the needs of the dealership, thus helping to guide them through these challenging times. And because we are a Facebook Marketing Partner, our Dealer-Partners enjoy enhanced technical support, exclusive invitations to alpha and beta tests, and a first look at the newest product releases. We are here for one reason: do everything possible to support dealers in their efforts to sustain and grow their business.»

About Dealers United

Dealers United is the Facebook and Instagram advertising solution for the automotive industry, providing award-winning social advertising solutions to auto dealers, OEMs, and auto agencies. For more information, visit dealersunited.com.

MIAMI, Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Two cruise line brands from Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK), the world’s largest cruise company, have announced plans to resume sailing operations, with Italy-based Costa Cruises scheduled to restart sailing…

MIAMI, Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Two cruise line brands from Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK), the world’s largest cruise company, have announced plans to resume sailing operations, with Italy-based Costa Cruises scheduled to restart sailing in Italy this Sunday, Sept. 6, followed by Germany-based AIDA Cruises scheduled to resume on Nov. 1.

The brands will begin in a gradual, phased-in manner with six initial ships and limited itineraries, becoming the first two of the company’s nine global cruise line brands to resume operations. The initial cruises will take place with adjusted passenger capacity and enhanced health protocols developed with government and health authorities to follow shoreside mitigation guidelines.

Costa Cruises is restarting sailing with two initial ships departing from Italian ports beginning Sept. 6. Costa Deliziosa will offer weekly cruises from Trieste on Sept. 6, 13, 20 and 27, visiting five destinations in southern Italy, including Bari and Brindisi in Puglia, Corigliano-Rossano in Calabria, and Siracusa and Catania in Sicily. Costa Diadema will follow on Sept. 19 from Genoa, calling at Italian ports in the western Mediterranean, including Civitavecchia/Rome, Naples, Palermo, Cagliari and La Spezia. The one-week itineraries are being reserved exclusively for Italian guests.

AIDA Cruises will resume its cruise operations with two of its ships, sailing from the Canary Islands in November 2020, followed by an additional two ships departing from the western Mediterranean and United Arab Emirates beginning in December 2020. The first of the brand’s cruises is set to begin Nov. 1, with seven-day voyages to and departures from Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, with AIDAmar, followed by sailings from Las Palmas and Santa Cruz de Tenerife with AIDAperla on Nov. 7. In December, AIDA Cruises will resume sailing operations in the Western Mediterranean with AIDAstella departing on seven-day cruises from Palma, Mallorca, beginning Dec. 12. Additionally, AIDAprima will offer seven-day cruises from Dubai starting Dec. 11 and from Abu Dhabi beginning Dec. 15.

In working with global and national health authorities and medical experts, Costa Cruises and AIDA Cruises have developed a comprehensive set of health and hygiene protocols to help facilitate a safe, healthy return to cruise vacations. Both brands are providing guests with detailed information about enhanced restart protocols, which will continue to be modeled after shoreside health and mitigation guidelines as defined by each brand’s respective county, and approved by the flag state, Italy. Protocols will be updated based on evolving scientific and medical knowledge related to mitigation strategies.

Costa Cruises has developed the Costa Safety Protocol for its fleet, including new operating procedures supported by independent scientific experts in public health and consistent with the health protocols defined by the Italian Government and European authorities. The comprehensive set of measures and procedures cover key areas such as crew health and safety, the booking process, guest activities, entertainment and dining, and medical care on board, as well as pre-boarding, embarking and disembarking operations, which will include testing for all guests prior to embarkation. Additional information on the Costa Safety Protocol is available here.

«Our highest responsibilities and top priorities are always compliance, protecting the environment, and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, the communities we visit and our crew,» said Arnold Donald, CEO of Carnival Corporation. «We are engaged with a large number of medical experts and scientists around the world, and they are providing us with extremely valuable insight that we are using to develop new and enhanced protocols that are in the best interest of our guests, crew and overall public health. In areas of the world where community spread is largely mitigated and authorities are supportive of a gradual return to service over time, we look forward to again welcoming guests on board.»

More broadly, as the understanding of COVID-19 continues to evolve, Carnival Corporation has been working with a number of world-leading public health, epidemiological and policy experts to support its ongoing efforts for developing enhanced protocols and procedures for the return of cruise vacations. Among the experts are:

  • Dr. Simon Clarke, associate professor in cellular microbiology, University of Reading School of Biological Sciences (UK)
  • Michael S. Diamond, MD, PhD, Herbert S. Gasser professor of medicine, molecular microbiology, pathology & immunology; and associate director, Center for Human Immunology and Immunotherapy Programs, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis
  • Michael Z. Lin, MD, PhD, associate professor of neurobiology, bioengineering, and chemical and systems biology; and principal investigator, The Lin Lab, Stanford University School of Medicine
  • Dr. Jewel Mullen, MD, MPH, associate dean for health equity, University of Texas at Austin, Dell Medical School
  • Emil C. Reisinger, MD, full professor of internal medicine, infectious diseases and tropical medicine and director of the Division of Tropical Medicine and Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Rostock, Germany
  • Dr. Stefano Vella, MD, former director, National Center for Global Health, Istituto Superiore di Sanità (Italian National Institute of Health); and adjunct professor of global health, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (Catholic University of the Sacred Heart) in Rome

These advisors and others have been working with the company and its brands to review existing and enhanced procedures and provide supplemental advice based on the latest scientific evidence and best practices for protection and mitigation.

And the search engines all agree that Bob Akmens is the best sports handicapper there is. When a Google search is done for «who is the best sports handicapper in the world?,» BASports.com comes in ranked #1 as the first-named sports service out of more than a million hits.  Bing comes up with 3.6 million hits…and ranks BASports.com #1. So does Yahoo search. Even China’s giant Baidu search-engine (with ½-billion users & 99% search in China) ranks BASports.com the #1 handicapper in the world.  Every single major search engine in the world ranks BASports.com as the best sports handicapper in existence.

BASports.com has produced the best college & pro football handicapping results over the years through the use of sophisticated computer models which analyze thousands of patterns and trends of teams, coaches and players. Their combination of quantitative and qualitative predictive variables is clearly unsurpassed.

So as the combined NCAA & NFL Football seasons get underway, BASports.com looks back on their prior record-shattering results and expects to make solid profits for their clients again this year. They offer their award-winning analytical services in many different NCAA & NFL Football picks packages.

Across the wide spectrum of sports, BASports.com employs proven winning computer algorithms to maximize the profit of their clients, who number in the thousands in more than 50 countries worldwide. 

BASports.com is also the only sports service to offer a 365-day, all-inclusive, package of daily picks in all the major betting sports (10 of them) for a single all-inclusive fee.

About.com summed up BASports.com very well when they said, «you truly do get what you pay for…plus more,» and that «I can count on one hand the number of services that I would give a positive recommendation about to a fellow sports bettor.  Bob Akmens Sports would certainly be included in that group.»

BASports.com believes this will be a very profitable college & NFL football season.  Dr. Bob invites every football fan to come along and experience the potential thrill of winning and the joy of new wealth.

  • Tiz the Law: + 150 Wagering Lines
  • Honor AP: +450 Betting Odds
  • Authentic: +1000 Wagering Lines
