GREAT NECK, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Dec. 18, 2000

CoActive Marketing Group, Inc. (Nasdaq SmallCap: CMKG) President and Chief Executive Officer, John P. Benfield announced today that CoActivity.com, the Company’s Cincinnati based interactive division, is the new interactive promotion agency for General Motors’ Chevrolet Division’s North Central nine state region pursuant to a contract which is anticipated to generate revenues in excess of $1 million.

CoActivity.com President, Mike Hallaron, went on to say: “Over the next 12 months, in addition to two websites already developed, CoActivity.com will be the Web strategist designing and developing 25 to 30 websites for Chevrolet Division’s regional sports marketing outreach. The sites can be found at www.chevyfans.net with the first site highlighting the `Chevrolet Shooting Star Sweepstakes’ for the University of Cincinnati Bearcats, allowing contestants to compete to win a Chevy Impala by shooting three-point baskets at Bearcat games. The second site features a sweepstakes for an all expense paid trip to Park City Mountain Utah ski resort, venue for the 2002 Winter Olympics. Future sites, among others, will focus on promotions involving the Michigan State University Spartans, the Cincinnati Reds, the Chicago Cubs, the Detroit Tigers, the Green Bay Packers, the Indianapolis Colts and the Brickyard 400.

“Charged with creating the Web component for the brand’s offline promotions, CoActivity.com will develop truly sticky content that will draw the customer back to the site over and over again, a very cost effective way of making the most of the promotional budget.

“In addition to serving as the sports promotion portal for the Chevrolet brand, the sites will function as tool for creating a pre-qualified database for brand related direct marketing. An onsite registration function will allow Chevrolet dealers to cull customer information directly from the site.

“As CoActivity.com has recently been awarded other high profile agency of record assignments and is continuing to experience increasing demands for its services, CoActivity.com is in the process of adding more than 20 interactive employees consisting of software engineers, Web developers, interactive designers and project managers to its staff.”

Andean Chevrolet Reaps Benefits of MyDealerLot Real Time Inventory Location Tracking
Posted Chevy Cars on Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008.

Using MyDealerLot, Andean Chevrolet deployed 375 AeroScout motion sensor Wi-Fi tags to the rear-view mirrors of their new and used vehicle inventory. Each tag beacons to a web-enabled ‘dashboard’ capable of displaying the virtual location of every vehicle to an average of 15 feet. Using the system, Andean Chevrolet has eliminated the need for physical inventory checks, improved customer service, improved lot security, and reduced floor plan costs.

With unprecedented control over inventory, Andean Chevrolet is reporting savings of over one to one-and-a-half hours per day, per salesperson. Current projections point to a year one break-even point after five months, with a bottom line gain of over $135,000 and a sustained bottom line gain of over $183,000 in year two. The savings are based on the time saved when trying to locate a specific vehicle, the use of marketing tools such as spin movies and other data, which can be emailed to prospects, floor plan compliance, and better management of floor plan expenses.

“The MyDealerLot system is incredibly effective, and most importantly, easy to implement and use,” said Janet Otwell, Co-Owner of Andean Chevrolet. “We have been very impressed with the increased efficiencies and improved customer service of finding a vehicle without having to hunt around the lot. MyDealerLot has successfully brought real time location technology and superb marketing tools together in one package not available anywhere else in the market.”

MyDealerLot is available immediately.
