As show season begins to wrap up with a few stragglers yet to happen, many are noting a precipitous drop in attendance. Many attribute the drop to crushing gas prices. Others blame the cost of hotels and dining out. But when you ask most folks their answer is often the same: I didn’t even know that it was happening.
Wait! How could that be? The answer is surprisingly easy to understand. Most local and/or regional clubs are horrible at promoting their events. They crank out a flyer that’s not much different from the year’s before, run off a few hundred copies and drop them on your car seat while walking other car cruises and local shows.
This strategy is as outdated as going door-to-door selling vacuum cleaners. And even if they post it for free on Facebook, the post is only reaching people who’ve already “liked” the event or have attended it before. You’re not reaching new attendees nor are you going to get the word out beyond your regional area that way!
So what’s the solution? Post your local car club gathering, cruise-in or annual show on Mopar Connection Magazine’s super easy-to-use Mopar Event Calendar. This site does all of the work that handing out photocopied flyers at the Dairy Queen drive-in or Facebook event page can’t and won’t do.
For $5, the Mopar Event Calendar generates a listing that suddenly integrates with Google’s algorithm, meaning anyone searching for a local, regional or national event will suddenly find your listing higher up on the page and faster than any other way. Often times, our listings come up before the event’s own website.
Below is an easy-to-follow guide on how to use Mopar Event Calendar to list your club’s event. And the sooner your list it, the deeper it will be ingrained into the largest search engine in the world. We guarantee more views and interest in your event by listing on Mopar Event Calendar than any other means.
