The NADA Opportunity

Your NADA Results Start Before the Show Floor Opens

NADA represents one of the largest commitments many automotive vendors make each year. Booth space, travel, displays, staffing, sponsorships, entertainment and sales resources require extensive planning. Yet many exhibitors still rely heavily on one thing: hoping the right dealership executives walk by their booth.

AutoHubShow Media Group takes a different approach.

Our NADA programs are designed to build awareness before the convention, generate qualified interest, drive booth traffic during the show, capture professional media and keep your company visible after attendees return to their dealerships.

Leaving Traffic to Chance

  • Waiting for attendees to walk past
  • Competing with hundreds of exhibitors
  • Depending on one moment to get noticed
  • Reaching a general show-floor audience
  • Allowing visibility to end with the convention

Building Demand Before NADA

  • Reaching decision-makers before they travel
  • Building recognition over several months
  • Creating multiple campaign touchpoints
  • Targeting specific dealership professionals
  • Extending content and follow-up beyond the event

Two Ways to Make NADA Work Harder for Your Brand

NADA Email Marketing

Build awareness, reach targeted dealership executives, schedule meetings, generate booth traffic and continue follow-up after the show.

Media Exposure & Video

Establish executive authority, capture the NADA presence, record customer proof and create professional assets for future marketing.

Integrated NADA Campaigns

Combine targeted email, interviews, booth coverage, customer testimonials, video distribution and post-show promotion.

Before NADA

Create Awareness. Generate Interest. Schedule Meetings.

Email is especially valuable for NADA because it is push technology. Instead of waiting for dealership executives to find your company through search, social media or while walking the exhibit hall, targeted email puts your message directly in front of them.

AutoHubShow combines Cactus Sky Digital's automotive email marketing experience with a highly targeted automotive audience.

What the Campaign Can Promote

Build Recognition Over Time

  1. 01

    Build Awareness

    Introduce the company and establish why the solution matters.

  2. 02

    Create Interest

    Highlight a business challenge and show how the company addresses it.

  3. 03

    Establish Credibility

    Feature a customer success story, executive insight, product benefit or other proof point.

  4. 04

    Generate Meetings

    Give dealership executives a reason to schedule time with the team.

  5. 05

    Final Pre-Show Push

    Reinforce the booth location, meeting opportunity, demonstration or announcement before attendees travel.

The objective is familiarity. When prospects see your company at NADA, they already know your name and why they should stop.

Monthly NADA Pre-Show Marketing

Build sustained recognition with dealership decision-makers in the months before the show.

Best suited for
Building sustained awareness and scheduled meetings before NADA.

Key inclusions

NADA Show Media Exposure & Video Programs

Turn Your NADA Presence Into Content That Works Before, During and After the Show

On-location executive interview and professional media production.

NADA is one of the most important opportunities of the year for automotive vendors to connect with dealership decision-makers. But with hundreds of exhibitors competing for attention, simply having a booth does not guarantee visibility.

AutoHubShow Media Group helps automotive companies turn their NADA presence into professional media exposure, executive thought leadership, customer proof and content that can continue working long after the show ends.

Professional customer interviews turn dealer experience into credible third-party proof.

A vendor describing its own product is marketing. A dealership customer describing the results they achieved is proof.

AutoHubShow captures those conversations on the show floor with a professional production crew, so your booth activity becomes credible, third-party validation you can use for months afterwards.
