Guest Posted October 11, 2013 Hello and welcome everyone! Yet another fantastic offering from Car Dealer Magazine - The Forum. This is your chance to discuss, speak up, disagree, shout, moan, share, commend and generally talk about the motor trade. So, don't be shy, talk to us! We need to know what you'd like to read about in the magazine too. As you know, we publish business features every month with different subjects and would like your involvement. What do you need help with? Can't give a decision on the right finance products to use? Searching for information about the web? Need to add a bit to your up sales? Pulling your hair out about the FSA changes? Let us know your requests and it could be the next feature in the magazine! We really are here to help. Ask anything! But we do draw the line at medical advice. None of us are actually doctors so aren't obliged to give any form of diagnosis or medication recommendations. So we can't help with your "friend's" strange rash that appeared after "his" holiday to Thailand. He (you) should go to his (your) doctors immediately.... Other than that, ask away!!

Ian 15 Posted December 13, 2013 Some more focus on small independant used car dealers would be great. Happy to help where possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenGiant 287 Posted December 14, 2013 ...and maybe a more obvious link to this forum from the top of the magazine home page might mean more than a couple of dozen of us can find it? That box at the top looks like an ad which, let's face it, we all ignore. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Baggott 227 Posted December 14, 2013 Thanks. I'll pass that on to the guys and get it sorted. We were planning on putting a link at the top right of the homepage where the others are - do you think that would suffice? Or does it need to be more obvious?

GreenGiant 287 Posted December 14, 2013 That's the first place I looked and was surprised there was no link there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ian 15 Posted December 14, 2013 Good call. Also link to the forum - until it's built up - on each news article maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Baggott 227 Posted December 14, 2013 There's a comment box that highlights the forum at the bottom of all posts already. But I'll look at other ways we can promote it too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ian 15 Posted December 14, 2013 Are discussions tweeted, or topics? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Baggott 227 Posted December 14, 2013 Both. Follow the magazine @CarDealerMag and me @CarDealerEd. You'll see we promote this forum on there and on our weekly newsletter. Not to mention the mag... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
