Why Advertising Works on The Saab Network
Online advertising works on The Saab Network because the Web and the Internet
are mediums that Saab owners are comfortable using. Many subscribers of The

Network was created on the Internet as a mailing list. In addition, according
to a J.D. Power's APEAL study, Saab owners use the Internet more than any
other automobile owner group. The demographic represented by a Saab owner is
clearly defined and desirable.
