The N&H 2023 Dealer Show on Saturday April 1st Rocked… No Foolin’!

HATTIESBURG MS (04.03.23) – “The N&H Dealer Show retuned and it was terrific to see members of our dealer family lined up at the door on Saturday morning. We had more dealers signed up for this show than any of our past dealer shows and the dealer turnout was great. Our last show was 3 years ago and connecting with our dealers Saturday was special. Dealers were upbeat and excited to connect with area reps and see new products. They also took advantage of the super specials we offered, many won a prize in dealer drawing. The drawing prizes totaled $6000 and of course all enjoyed the delicious lunch from the Mack’s West Catfish Truck. In fact they served 103 lunches” Ricky Gibson related.

The doors opened at 11AM and dealers registered and went to the aisles to see new products from over 30 top brands with special show prices. A number of factory reps were in the house to cover the product features and connect with dealers from across the territory. The famous catfish truck pulled up in the parking lot and lunch was served beginning at 1PM. The show officially wrapped at 5PM.

Sunday appointments were scheduled and Gibson related, during a Sunday morning phone call with the 12volt Central Studios, “The N&H crew mentioned how excited dealers were at the show yesterday. Several dealers made appointments and placed orders today. A couple dealers called this morning and added to the orders they placed yesterday at the show. Monday and Tuesday we will be shipping freight orders and our van will be making delivers across Mississippi and Louisiana this week.”

Continuing Gibson shared some highlights from Saturday. “Metra showcased new products under the company umbrella with Carlos and Mike traveling from the Metra HQ in Holly Hill Fl. Heise Lighting grabbed attention. PowerBass, with Jeff Falk National Sales Manager, excited dealers with their all inclusive OEM Direct Fit plug and play speakers which are fantastic and reduce dealer install times. PowerBass SoundBars were hot too. His video presentation on the big screen during lunch was well received. KICKER, JVC Mobile, Soundstream, Power Acoustik and Rydeen were covered by Tech Marketing’s Rickie Holtzman in the house. Richie spotlighted the new JVC KWZ1000W with 10.1” screen. Dave Gill, SMS Marketing, was on site and covered the DB Drive and Bazooka brands he reps in the territory. Bob Anderson, N Motion, highlighted the new Massive Audio single DIN with DSP onboard in the booth.”

Concluding Gibson stated “It’s tax season time and our super show specials will add profit for dealers who took advantage of the specials. Some dealers took their orders with them for Monday morning sales. The N&H team was excited to see all dealers at our 2023 Dealer Show and look forward the the 2024 N&H Dealer Show.”
