“The best marketing experience that comes to mind besides Google, social media, networking and paid ads would be a new factory car show we decided to do last minute (literally four to five days before the show started). We heard about it last minute and decided to pay for a booth. We then realized we needed a demo vehicle and borrowed one of our head tech’s personal trucks and rebuilt the entire install in a 48-hour straight shot. “We were completing not only the booth set-up but finishing the install on-site the night before the show opened to the public. It turned out to be the best show we have done and brought in a ton of business to the store. “The initial goals were to retain business as well as gain notoriety from being at a huge public event. Moving forward, we have prepared ourselves to plan a lot better for this event as we have continued to participate every year since.”
