Hi Ron, and Cindy,
Contact Cynthia Rosely at RockAuto Marketing Department. She helped us out at Lyman's last year with some goodie bag items, but for a convention they might offer more "stuff". I pasted her email to me below.
Jim
Hello,
My name is Cynthia Hoesly and I am in the Marketing Department at
RockAuto.com,
an online auto parts store. We are looking for new promotional opportunities,
and we are interested in getting involved with your upcoming show(s). If
there\'s any opportunity for us at your upcoming event(s) please let us know!
In the past we have provided car shows with magnets and flyers for goody bags
or
to pass out to participants. We can also provide you with other needed items
for
a successful event; wristbands, gift certificates, etc. We are very open to
discussion for creative ways to get involved.
Quick Company Overview:
RockAuto.com was founded in 1999 and now ships thousands of auto parts from
over
200 manufacturers to customers on every continent except Antarctica. The huge
selection of parts and the low prices in the RockAuto.com catalog attract
customers. RockAuto\'s responsive customer service keeps customers coming
back. (RockAuto.com customer service consistently scores more than nine out
of
ten in customer surveys performed by Resellerratings.com and others).
Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you!
Cynthia Hoesly
