Interactive Financial Marketing Group Processes Five Millionth Auto Loan Application — Milestone Marks Eight Years of Growth in Auto Finance Lead Generation

Posted on by

Richmond, VA (PRWEB) February 1, 2011

Interactive Financial Marketing Group (IFMG), a division of Dominion Enterprises, today announced it has distributed 5,000,000 online auto finance loan applications to its Carloan.com dealer network.

The key to achieving this significant accomplishment is the diverse network of auto finance web sites and partnerships that IFMG manages, combined with a proprietary lead routing system. Given the efficiency of its robust routing engine technology, IFMG has validated, screened and distributed an average of 625,000 car loan applications per year since the launch of the system. It achieved this historic level despite the recent economic downturn that has adversely impacted both the automotive and finance industries.

Prior to building the online marketing systems it currently uses for lead generation, IFMG kicked off its operations in 1989 using vanity phone numbers. Customized 800 numbers like 1-800-CAR-LOAN and 1-800-AUTO-LOAN generated auto finance applications that were then delivered to its dealer partners. The 5,000,000 application mark does not include applications that were received and processed before IFMG made the leap to the Internet in 2002.

“This is a landmark event in the history of IFMG,” said Tom Feary, General Manager of IFMG. “It reflects the trust that car buyers have in our auto finance websites such as Carloan.com, and the level of service our dealer network provides to those seeking a vehicle through financing. We’re looking forward to many more strong years connecting dealers to car buyers ready to be financed.”

IFMG invites auto dealers to visit Carloan.com at booth #2046S at the NADA Convention and Expo, February 5-7, 2011 in San Francisco to learn how they can join the Carloan.com dealer network.

AXSES Launches Facebook Posts – Special Offer Fan Page. New arcRes Application for Facebook, Builds Fab Page, Posts & Manages Special Offers

Posted on by

Bridgetown, Barbados (PRWEB) August 06, 2011

AXSES Tourism Marketing Platform launches a new application for Facebook Marketing for hotel and tourism supplier. The application automates Facebook Post where hotels and tourism operators post updates and news to their Fan Pages, Profile Wall and News Feeds.

?We are excited by this development,? say Kathy-Lynn Ward, who was responsible for creating the app as a result of request from customers.

?Creating meaningful post and comments on your Facebook pages, is probably the most important thing any company can do to market their travel brand and engage with Facebook Fans. arcRes gives hotels and tourism operators a tool that automates posting. It is Free advertising that is really simple to use and effective.?

Travel shoppers are actively looking for this sort of information. Reviews, travel tips and information on special deals, promos and packages are popular posts, and travellers are actively seeking special offers.

Facebook, because of its huge reach and loyal followers, has become a major advertising medium for the largest travel companies, like Expedia. Now, even small hotels and travel suppliers can step up their Fan engagement and attract more Fans and bookings with automatic posts managed by arcResBookings tools.

Hotel and travel companies using this app can create a special promotion or package using the arcRes tool that make it easy to create an advertisement of a special/package. Hotels can create as many special and packages as they want and valid for any dates they want.

The ads are then automatically posted to Fan pages and profile wall where they appear in news feeds for Fans and can be seen by friends of fans. ?The exposure can be huge,? says Ward.

arcRes also posts special and package promotions to 100?s of sites in the AXSES network and to affiliate site that subscribe to the RSS feeds posted every time there is an update or a new special added. KATHY ? Not sure ? are these facebook specials exclusive top FB ONLY. Can they choose to buy into FB Special Offers and have those posted to all channels. I think not but not sure if I need to be more specific here

The system allows ads to be displayed for specific periods and booked for holidays at specific times. The option to create ads for dates and trigger updates with a change means that the content on the Fan page can be current and fresh. Fans will keep an eye out for the latest Offers and come back to the page frequently.

The app is also set up to encourage new visitors to Like the page and become a fan in order to access the information. This feature is optional, as, based on the marketing position and goal, some travel brands may prefer to allow everyone to see their promo and not want to restrict exposure in favour of having more fans. But providing extra value for fans-only, brands create an incentive for liking the page and building a loyal fan base.

If specials are shown only to fans, non-fans receive the message below and a prompt to LIKE the page (i.e. become a fan). Non-fans can still access the page Wall, Photos, etc.

FanPagePosts for Facebook builds the Fan and Non Fan Pages automatically. The “like” page (non-fan) is an option that can be turned on an off at anytime. The systems also create a new TAB for Special Offer, that travelers can click on to see all current brand offers.

New Application Developed for Borescope Rentals to Keep Mobile Phones Working

Posted on by


Melbourne, FL (Vocus) December 15, 2009

Borescope Rentals from Advanced Inspection Technologies have always made it possible for industrial customers to inspect the most difficult areas possible on a moments notice. A Borescope is typically a thin flexible insertion tube with a camera on one end and a video monitor on the other. The borescope is inserted into areas that would otherwise be impossible to inspect without tear down. Inspectors use borescopes rented from AIT to inspect inside the support structures of cell phone towers.

Inspectors climb the cell towers and insert the flexible borescope through weep holes that were designed to allow moisture to escape. The borescope rentals for this application will typically be 6.0 mm (.236 in.) in diameter and approximately 6.0 meters (20 ft.) to fit inside the access and snake down the structure from several heights. The inspectors use the borescope rental equipment to look for corrosion that may affect the structural integrity of the cell phone tower. Cell phone towers in coastal areas such as Florida, Louisiana and Texas are under the most scrutiny because of the salty air.

“I am amazed at the variety of applications our borescope rentals are used for,” said Paul C. Fitzgerald, President and CEO of Advanced Inspection Technologies. “Everything that makes modern life possible has probably been inspected with a high resolution video borescope during it’s construction or maintenance life cycle. Every day life from the planes we fly, the electricity we use, the cars we drive and our communications require a borescope inspection at some point.”

Due to the heights and working conditions involved with cell towers, inspectors need the most portable borescope equipment available. AIT’s borescope rentals are designed for a variety of industrial applications. The borescope rental equipment from AIT features an ergonomic hand-piece and allows one-handed operation of the camera articulation and image capture control. The borescope rental system provide a high definition color LCD screen for viewing and playback of inspections.

About Advanced Inspection Technologies:

Headquartered in Melbourne, Florida, AIT is the industry leader for borescope and infrared camera rentals. AIT provides unparalleled 24×7 borescope and infrared rental support. AIT’s rental services and products enable companies to inspect machinery, facilities and infrastructure in the safest, quickest and most cost-effective manner possible. AIT’s borescope rental equipment has been used to improve the inspection process in all industries where image quality, safety, security and accuracy are of the highest concern, such as aviation, electric power generation, petro-chemical, manufacturing, predictive maintenance and infrastructure.
