Where to find car manufacturers in order to convert them to customers

The idea that helps Car Manufacturers

Car Manufacturers want to improve vehicle connectivity and data collection. However, they can't get it because they struggle with integrating diverse vehicle data efficiently.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. AutoLink.

Unified Connected Vehicle Platform : AutoLink is a unified platform that seamlessly integrates various vehicle data sources for enhanced connectivity and data collection. Of course it is much better than the stuff from Covisint, or Airbiquity!

How to find Car Manufacturers

You can get insights about the pain points of car manufacturers if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

Find out where car manufacturers hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of car manufacturers, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: Unified Connected Vehicle Platform.

I described the process here in my blog post: Identify a hungry audience.
