San Diego, CA, January 21, 2012 --(PR.com)-- The most popular auto dealer on Facebook reaches 200,000 likes. Walker Toyota, who has held the title of “the #1 auto dealer on Facebook” for several months, partnered up with the social media marketing and development firm SocialUPs in October of 2010, at a time when their page had only 518 fans. They now have 201,900 Facebook “likes” and 5,717 people “Talking About” them today. For comparison purposes, the corporate Toyota page has 685,996 “likes” and 10,684 people “Talking About” them today. This is a significant milestone for the Ohio based dealership as the positive feedback and increased brand awareness on Facebook has helped drive substantially more business to their store over the past year, validating the effectiveness of social media marketing. Participating on social media sites has proven to be an unparalleled approach for companies to showcase their brand, establish credibility and trust with consumers, and obtain feedback on the products and services that they offer.
