Expectations / Goals
Draw people into Dealership in hopes of getting them to test drive cars
Event Overview
People who visited the Dealership had a chance to meet with Sparky and while they waited in line they were exposed to new products
Results
The Dealership was filled with potential car buyers. They had more than 50 test drives and sold double the cars than on a usual Saturday
Quote–Client
“Everyone enjoyed meeting with Sparky and enjoyed their time at the dealership.”
Quote–Celebrity
“I enjoyed working with CPS. Everything was well organized. Everyone at the event behaved very well.”
Lessons Learned
CPS suggested and produced photos of the athlete with our Dealership Corporate Logo and website that we passed out so everyone had something of value to get signed
Future Recommendations
Having the athlete pre-sign a dozen baseballs to pass out for future events and/or contests
