When you do the local business (or more specfically the AutoDealer - http:\/\/schema.org\/AutoDealer), you then want to see how you can connect that with other entities on your site. For example it will be the publisher of your blog postings, and could also be the car (http:\/\/schema.org\/Car) and for the car there would be an offer (price - http:\/\/schema.org\/Offer). Then you can connect the offer to the AutoDealer through the makes offer, or in the offer, as offeredBy). You can code this into your site, or you could also easily use the Schema App Highlighter.
