Mercedes launching AMG awareness campaign
Filed under: Marketing/Advertising, Mercedes Benz, AMG
Stand anywhere near where an AMG Mercedes is driving and you'd have to be deaf not to hear it. But Mercedes-Benz is convinced that too few potential customers have heard of its performance range, so it's launching an awareness campaign around the United States that seeks to raise the profile of its top shelf performance models.The project involves the establishment of AMG Performance Centers, a focused advertising campaign and a product-demonstration road show. An initial pilot project will involve seven dealers in California, Florida and New York, but by the end of the year, Mercedes expects that its top 30 dealerships - representing 80% of AMG sales in the US - will sign on to the program. Mercedes will subsidize dealerships on the cost of setting up separate AMG areas within their dealerships and training service personnel, as well as bringing the road show to town, which will demonstrate limited edition AMG models - we're thinking Black Series here - to select customers.

I just got an E Mailed invitation to the AMG Challenge. Has anyone here ever done that? I think I might have gotten one last year, too. I've never been to one.

The Problem with that AMG Challenge.
Quote:
But MY problem with it is that little $1,295.00 entry fee they are charging. (These kinds of things used to be FREE, in the San Francisco Bay Area, a few years ago, put on by Mercedes Benz, Mazda, BMW, Cadillac and other carmakers). That $1,295 would sure buy a LOT of gas, IN FACT, I think enough of it to take me and my car to Washignton DC, this year, a drive I have wanted to do for a long time, anyway, maybe this spring or fall!!
