Hey everyone,
It’s come to the point that I cannot possibly devote the time and energy to contributing to this special finance blog and run my business. I keep promising myself and others, that kindly remind me that I haven’t written for some time, that I am working on the next post, but it seems to never happen.
I love special finance. It was my first promotion in the retail side of auto business, and since then I have seen it’s importance and have always been an eager student. I don’t want this blog to just sit on the web, as things develop in these very trying times, and as new readers subscribe every week, without any good educational stuff being added. I have received some really nice feedback over the last couple of years, and I’m hoping that means that reaching out and keeping the site running will be contributive.
The blog has a respectable amount of readers. I think it would naturally grow even more if given the attention needed.
So, I’m extending an invitation to readers: if you’re interested in writing on the blog please reach out and let me know. Writing on the blog is a good way to share your experiences and best practices with others, and a good way to show off your expertise, and make a name for yourself (who know’s, maybe you’ll be a guest speaker at some future NADA).
I’d like to have someone primarily from the retail side manage and contribute to the website, as well as anyone who services the industry as a lender or a vendor, or whatever. After a few posts, and we get to know each other, I’ll let that person take the lead on the site, and guide it in the direction they see fit. My only qualification is that the site remain unbiased. i don’t want it becoming a place for one sided promotions of certain products to take place, although I’m open to anyone making the case for their stuff or methods as long as the stance is fair and informative. Anyway…
I’ll continue to maintain the site, keep it optimized, which is my business (it usually sits on the top five results for “special finance leads“, “subprime auto blog“, “special finance auto blog” and other keywords related to the industry. It takes years to get those kinds of rankings, and it’s a nice opportunity to have a site that gets natural traffic as the platform for your voice.
We can talk about advertising, as well, as the site grows there is an opportunity for that, and other good things.
So, that’s the pitch. I’m hoping there are a few interested people. Please get in touch and let me know if you’re one of those people.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best wishes,
Jim Wagner
