www.showfest.com. 12-Volt and the Aftermarket Masses USACI has partnered with some the best event promoters in the country to bring 12-volt to the forefront of the automotive customization market. USACI will be presenting car audio events at all the Texas Heat Wave events, Scrapin the Coast, Showfest, Slammin and Jammin, Import Face Off (30), Street Pounders Lifestyle Events, Blood Drag, Siknic, Turkey Drag, Lakefront Tour, Bear Cave Cruisers, and hundreds of other incredible automotive specialty events and car shows coast to coast. By contacting and involving local retailers in each and every market USACI takes advantage of the huge crowds these event pull in to promote 12-volt and custom audio to the masses.
Many of our partner shops come out and set up booths, bring show cars, and promote their business at these events for a fraction of what it would cost to do independently. This marketing exposes automotive customizing enthusiasts who are already pre qualified by their attendance at these events to the 12-volt industry and all it has to offer. This and other USACI grass roots promotional programs are cost effective and show more return than any other promotion program available to 12-volt retailers and 12-volt manufacturers today.
