Autosport International Round Up

It will come as no surprise that the run up to the Autosport International show is one of the busiest times of the year for CMA. Europe’s largest motorsport show, held at the NEC in Birmingham every January, is a must-attend for many CMA clients and a great platform to launch the New Year business-wise.

In total, CMA supported 13 companies at the 2015 show. As a general rule, we liaise with clients early to ensure they can make the most of the various PR opportunities available, and especially with the large jobs it is good to get started well ahead of time. We also tend to put together a series of invite e-mails to help our clients let their prospective customers know they are at the show and where they can be found.

To give a flavour of what support we provided, we’ll do a quick round up:
