Who we work with

Automotive Event PR Q&A

Why is working with a specialist Automotive Event PR agency better than a generalist PR agency?

Fundamentally, it comes down to expertise, understanding, sector knowledge and having the closest relationships with the global opinion leaders that matter to meet the communication needs to run automotive event PR campaigns. Automotive events are unique spanning classic B2B and B2C, and everywhere in between. Automotive events get the attention of global media and car enthusiasts alike. We have worked in the automotive sector all our lives and PR for automotive events is a critical component of our industry. We brought that expertise to bear when we launched Influence Associates a decade and a half ago. Influence is regarded as the world’s leading automotive event PR Agency, and as such, has exceptional operational experience supporting and help clients navigate the nuances and logistics to ensure success. We focus this expertise to benefit our clients and give them unparalleled access to the global opinion formers they need to project their brand and business to amplify sales. A generalist, tech or automotive PR agency, or less-experienced automotive PR agency just can’t provide this level of sector knowledge or the hands-on experience. We believe it's the difference between great and good.

What does an Automotive Event PR agency do?

A specialist agency focussing on automotive event PR can help companies in many ways. At Influence, we have deep domain expertise in automotive event PR and thousands of hours of hands on experience across the agency. Having launched hundreds of vehicles and managed media at the highest level at automotive we can give clients the confidence that we have seen it all and nothing will ever slip. We overlay this experience with strategic know how of automotive event PR, ensuring strategic laser-focussed messaging is the first step. We then take your message to key global influencers in the automotive space, such as influential journalists and opinion formers, who in turn amplify that message through respected channels to land and resonate with the entire automotive ecosystem from OEMs to dealers. Those channels can be traditional media (print and broadcast), your own channels or the specific targeting of appropriate audiences through social media such as LinkedIn. Powerful storytelling amongst critical audiences is vital to business success.
