Marketing FAQs

Show production is our expertise, not marketing… that’s why we’ve hired the same marketing agency that we worked with, while leading the Flower & Christmas Shows at the State Fairgrounds.

Our friends at Marshall MEDIAS are event marketing specialists that help not only our shows, but many other consumer shows, fairs & festivals across the midwest and east coast! They are experts in targeting quality showgoers through a mix of traditional broadcast, digital & social media strategies! They have a proven track record when it comes to marketing events and we’re proud to have them on our team!

Their experience in the show industry allows us to have the confidence in letting them do what they do best – so we can focus on producing a great show!

The consumer show industry still benefits greatly from a wide media mix of traditional, digital and social.

We have formed a partnership with the top TV news group in Indianapolis. This exclusive partnership allows us to get a lot of value for our media plan and they send many of their station personalities to the show to meet fans and cover the show on their newscasts!

For radio, we buy the stations that offer us the best mix of value and target audience! We currently buy at least 5 stations in town!

In addition to radio and TV, we utilize Indianapolis Monthly, multiple TownePost Magazines in the various suburbs of Indy (Westfield, Carmel, Zionsville, Fishers, Noblesville, Geist, Broad Ripple, Avon, Plainfield & Center Grove), billboards, direct mail coupon based magazines such as The Home Mag, Reach, Neighborhood Source, Valpak, etc.) and local newspapers!

Our digital and social strategies will include local web event calendars, Facebook, Google search spending, YouTube video sponsorships, etc.

Our marketing/advertising reach is the Indianapolis Metro area, with a very focused message in Hendricks, Boone, Hamilton and Hancock counties…reaching into Northern Marion County as well…that’s a very focused message to 850,000+ potential customers! So if this is your audience…you need to be at the show!

We feel we have strong selling points to attract showgoers, these include our:

  • Location – We are closer, more accessible and with less traffic hassles to get to for affluent Suburban Indy residents.
  • Venue – Grand Park Events Center is new, upscale, clean, and has great food & drink selections as well as an expansive lobby that will greatly improve the arrival experience at our shows.
  • Commitment to local – Stressing the importance of buying local, letting showgoers know we have a special line-up of artisans who handcraft their products customers can use and that we will offer relevant theater presentations related to all the above! Plus, with all the shopping opportunities available, they can walk away with their shopping bags full of unique items!
