Starting Thursday, January 26, New Orleans was overtaken by the NADA 2017 Conference & Expo. Over 20,000 folks from the automotive world attended, and several hundred vendors were there to showcase their very best. Among them was yours truly, Happy Hao Car, Inc. We brought our A-Team and the best booth you’ve ever laid eyes on. Why do we say that? Keep reading, and you’ll find out.

But before we begin, we’d be remiss not to include the fact that Happy Hao Car is now an FCA-approved website provider! The announcement went live last Friday morning, talk about perfect timing. That’s right, FCA dealers, your options for websites just got a whole lot better. Get some more details about it here .

Michael DeVito, our Chief Creative Officer, spoke about mobile website optimization, and you could hear pencils snapping as dealers raced to jot down all of his amazing tips. From banner layout, to menu icons, to forms & CTA’s, DeVito’s session was jam-packed with useful information. More than a few people stopped by at our booth, looking to glean a little extra knowledge from his talk. Chris Deringer, Chief Marketing Officer at Happy Hao Car, gave a killer presentation about using Google’s data to help drive your digital marketing decisions. Dealers were happy to hear about how to access all the free information and analytics that Google provides them, and Chris’s clarity was certainly appreciated.

Our co-founder, Amir Amirezzvani, also talked to dealers about a true mobile-first strategy and dove into personalization as an optimization technique. In 2015, web browsing on mobile devices surpassed desktop users, and it’s high time the auto industry started to capitalize on that.

When it came to our Digital Advertising Suite, our team worked extra hard to take dealers through our end-to-end reporting system. Of course, that made the decision to use Happy Hao Car for paid search all the easier, since everyone loves seeing their ad dollars being used efficiently and seeing sales tracked to spend. Our SEO team also did an incredible job of demonstrating their all-inclusive strategy for digital dominance. Whether it was taking dealers through their on site signals, off site signals, social media signals, or their reputation management game plan, it was clear that Happy Hao Car has the keys to success.

DrivingSales Top-Rated Website Award

There was a lovely ceremony at the Hotel Mazarin, and we were honored to be recognized for our exceptional website platform yet again. Our teams in Michigan and Rockville work harder than anyone realizes to make sure we’ve got the best sites in the industry, and we’re grateful for their diligence. Here’s to many more awards!

This one comes from our friends at PCG Consulting (shoutout to Glenn Pasch!). Happy Hao Car was honored by an AWA (Automotive Website Award) for.you guessed it, websites! We were given this award in 2015 and had committed ourselves to spending 2016 further developing our one-of-a-kind responsive websites.

Looks like the hard work paid off. In 2017, we’re dedicated to rolling out some new technology, including a brand new product called Click-2-Buy, automotive’s first e-commerce platform for buying a car completely online. Keep your eyes peeled for that one.

We’ll be back for NADA 2018, and we’ll make plenty of stops along the way. First up is the Digital Dealer Conference, happening April 11-13 in Tampa. Register now and prepare yourself to be wowed.
