    Mag wheels advertising?

    Just looking at some stuff for work, and kinda want some real-world feedback really.....
    We sell mag wheels, the question being where would you look if you wanted to buy some? I know everyone's first answer is generally trade-me, but what would be the next option?
    Any help would be appreciated.....

    Yellow Pages....heard it on the radio....a mate told me......saw a flash-as sign written vehicle
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Trademe or our local pub. With the numbers being stolen neighbourhood they gotta be ending up somewhere.....

    Mag & Turbo Warehouse springs to mind thanks to their annoying adverts.

    Thats a tough question.

    Do you want to get people to come to your business to look at mag wheels or - do you need to improve brand awareness or do you actually have a few people coming in but your sales are down?

    Budget comes into it as well.

    Cheers

    Really your first option, we've been here 21 years, but there's stil a large no of people out there that have never heard of us, yet we can generally blow the big companies out of the water.....
    Just wanna try to generate more people through the door really....

    OK - next question - who is your target market? ie - Everyone locally, Aussie V8 / V6 drivers, Japa Hi Po boy racers, dealers, or importers etc.

    Assuming your budget is limited - targeted marketing maybe your best option and direct marketing is definately worth considering.

    Magazines are a big point. Problem is there are so many people advertising, its easy to get overlooked.

    Pamphlets are good
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    I'd probably do the same as Cajun, go to the tire shop. I work for Bridgestone, and know that there are a few brands on display at each bridgestone/firestone outlet. Hook up with the company and you might be able to find you way into their stores...
