The “SEMA Crunch” is on and in less than two weeks more than 130,000 exhibitors, buyers and media will gather at the annual trade-only 2014 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

More than 125 vehicle builders and car customizers have been entered into the first-ever SEMA Battle of the Builders™ competition taking place at SEMA Ignited, Friday, November 7, 2014.

“Mother’s Presents SEMA Las Vegas”—a one-hour television special that was filmed at last year’s Show—is scheduled to re-air November 1, at 12 p.m. (EST) and November 4, at 9 a.m. (EST).

While you’re at the 2014 SEMA Show, be sure to stop by the SEMA PAC booth to make your voice heard.

To help manufacturers, retailers, installers and even warehouse distributors learn about the benefits, perceived hurdles and costs of TV marketing, the SEMA Show will present a super-session seminar entitled “Understand and Maximize Investments in Automotive TV Programming.”

The third Kirkpatrick principle is all about actions that need to occur before and after formal training to produce the required ROE.
