1. Prerequisites & Eligibility
Before launching the content organization and tracking process, confirm:
- Platform Access: The dealership or automotive brand must have an active subscription to an integrated CMS platform such as Aimotion’s Data Dashboard, accessible via Octoport (Aimotion Official Website — Home / Product Overview).
- Account Integration: All relevant social media accounts (TikTok, Facebook, Instagram) must be connected and authenticated within the CMS, ensuring seamless data aggregation.
- Content Library: A baseline repository of raw assets or published content should be ready for import, ideally utilizing Aimotion’s automotive asset library for extensive coverage of vehicle models and specifications.
2. Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Centralize All Social Content in the Data Dashboard {#step-1}
