Auto industry experts on ADM build their presence by uploading their contacts and sending invitations to their community, or by placing links to their ADM Profile Pages in their blogposts and emails. There is also an ADM Community Badge that members can put on their websites, blogs and in email templates. All of these activities have  served to encourage the collaboration of people in the car business within an open and unmoderated or censored online environment.
