Dealer.com, the global leader of online marketing solutions for auto dealers, is a Leader award winner in the 2009 Summit Emerging Media Award (Summit EMA) for their work with the Brandon Ford website.  "We are honored by this award and proud of our work with auto dealership Brandon Ford," commented Dealer.com creative director, Ryan Dunn.  "They are a key partner in our pioneering communication products and services, including the latest MobileSites™ technology.  They fully leverage our online marketing platform which allows them to communicate and engage more directly with shoppers, quickly connecting them to specific vehicles of interest, no matter how consumers choose to shop for vehicles online."

Brandon Ford is a full service dealership located in Tampa, Florida.  The dealership has received Ford's prestigious Presidents Award for seven consecutive years and Ford Credit's Partners In Quality Award for five consecutive years.  The dealership carries a comprehensive line of new Ford vehicles, including the Edge, Focus, Escape, Mustang, Explorer, Taurus, Flex, F150, and Fusion, as well as an extensive used vehicle selection.     

The Summit EMA competition is based on the premise that advertising is consistently at the forefront of the technological evolution of communication. Some of this year’s judges included: Peter Gorman  – Restaurant.com; Chris Jones – Stellar Debris Creative Studios; and Mahiette Tarrago – xpert-design.com.  

“Those involved in today’s emerging media technologies are the leaders who are establishing tomorrow’s avenues of advertising communications.” Said Jocelyn Luciano, Executive Director for the Summit International Awards (SIA). “Most communication professionals recognize that established avenues of communication can be reliable and safe.  Developing and engaging in emerging media technologies, along with creative messaging and market awareness, is often a difficult criterion which makes earning a Summit EMA a significant achievement.
