The Team Nutz 70’ x 90’ main booth was filled with demo vehicles, tents, show car displays, live installations and importantly consumers. The Team Nutz staff of 15 worked the show that actually featured 3 booths including Fuel Required.

Ed Nuttall, for Team Nutz, stated, “The attendance was reported to have topped 20,000 and members of the crowd were really interested automotive enthusiasts. We had literally over 10,000 customized swag items including pens, stickers, tote bags, screw drivers and lanyards we handed out to attendees.”

The event got off to a very fast start as about 1400 local high school students were bussed to the event. At the event a meeting was set up in an upstairs meeting room where Nuttall addressed the students about the automotive aftermarket products that the students could experience in the Team Nutz booth. Seeing a majority of those students in the Team Nutz midday was a great way to get the event rolling. The visibility for Team Nutz at the event will lead to very active days at the store following the World of Wheels event for those students.

To prepare to extend the ROI from the World of Wheels Team Nutz redoubled their efforts to connect with consumers via social media. The main focus was customized QR Codes specifically designed to be scanned to connect to Team Nutz Facebook, Instagram and Google platforms. Attendees scanning the QR Codes were entered for prizes at the event. “We gained hundreds of followers and boosted our Google rating from the custom QR Codes and gave away over 500 Team Nutz T-Shirts” Nuttall commended.

Continuing “We have been attending the World of Wheels for 22 years and we were awarded an Outstanding Vehicle Award. Nina Nuttall’s truck project drew a lots of eyeballs to earn the award.”

Another takeaway from recent activities and at the World of Wheels had been connecting with more car clubs and enthusiast groups.

“All at Team Nutz and partners certainly put a lot into pulling off this event. We worked over 3 days to set up and tear down took 1.5 hours this year…compared to 3 hours last year. We put our company and products in front a very large number of people. Literally thousands went home with some swag with our name on it too. All in all I think the show was a huge success. We look forward to more big events at the David Lawrence Convention Center. When we opened the store the day after the World of Wheels the phone was” ringing of the hook” Nuttall concluded.
