Socialbyte hits milestone managing 120 social media streams

Long Grov-based Socialbyte announced that in its first four months of operation, business has increased 400 percent month over month, accounting for over 120 social streams in its automotive sector, with an additional 25 in its nonautomotive business.

Socialbyte’s clientele are in 13 different states representing 22 different OEM’s within the automotive industry.

Tim O’Neill, Socialbyte president and CEO, said the Ganley Automotive Group, an Ohio-based dealer group, has selected Socialbyte as their partner for all 19 franchised dealerships.

“The Ganley Automotive Group chose Socialbyte based on the ability of our company to deliver consistency in their social media branding efforts,” said Young Choi, vice president of Socialbyte. “Also factoring into their decision was our exclusive reputation management software and the hands-on daily management of posting, fan building activities, and our ability to interact and engage with their fans on a personal level.”

Ganley officials said they selected Socialbyte because the company does not have the resources, time or expertise that Socialbyte can provide.
