Faster launches. Smarter targeting. Way better use of your ad dollars. That’s the bar we set at Vicimus, and it’s why Bumper Ads keeps getting sharper. Dealers aren’t short on platforms. They’re short on time, clarity, and confidence that their spend is actually doing something. When ads move faster and targeting tightens up, the guesswork disappears and performance starts to show up where it should. Less noise and more traction. #Bumper #BumperAds #AutomotiveMarketing #NADA #SmarterSpend

79% of B2B SaaS CMOs say brand recognition influences their vendor shortlist. In our Wynter study of 100 CMOs at $50M+ companies, 45% called brand fame a major factor in their buying decisions. Still, the first step isn’t Google. 72% start by asking peers in private communities. Word of mouth leads the shortlist. If you're not a household name, here's how you break in: • Get peer-recommended. Be active where your buyers hang out. Happy customers in Slack groups put you on the radar faster than ads. • Clear compliance early. Security checks are non-negotiable. Have your documentation ready. • Let them try it. 38% said unknown vendors need an easy trial. Show the real product, not just a demo video. • Solve what big players ignore. Find the gaps and innovate there. • Prove ROI fast. Lower pricing won't win alone, but combined with clear outcomes, it's a tiebreaker. • De-risk the decision. Prove you understand their problems and can solve them. Big brands start ahead but smaller players catch up through peer recommendations and delivering results.
