SEMA may be cancelled, but thousands of customers are waiting to buy your products, and we have a plan.
What: We have already developed turn-key launch programs for new products, car builds and brands. Reach more people for less money than a traditional in-person program, targeted to your specific consumer, market segment and distribution model.
How: Through a turn-key marketing package that targets thousands of industry contacts and millions of consumers targeted by interest, utilizing a seamlessly integrated package of virtual programming, live video, social media content, PR and targeted digital marketing.
Why: Wednesday’s news that the 2020 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show was the latest event to fall victim to the coronavirus pandemic hit the aftermarket automotive industry like a tornado in a trailer park. Having a standalone digital launch managed by the KM team is faster, more targeted and has more trackable defined return on investment than even the best in-person program.
How: Using car builds, product spotlights, produced and live content, carefully orchestrated media coverage, engaged influencers and the 1.1M-strong Kahn Media Network of auto enthusiast social media channels for maximum exposure and ROI.
Who: Kahn Media has been helping our clients get the most from their SEMA Show presences for more than a decade, including introducing an increasing number of digital solutions for clients to amplify their presence outside of those physically in attendance at the event. Now, we’re ready to help you navigate the unknown of a digital trade show presence with a custom-tailored service package designed to get your message to the right audience – be it business-to-business or business-to-consumer.
