How to prepare B2B outreach at Automotive Dealer Day 2026
-
Target roles rather than companies. Prioritize dealer principals, network development managers and aftersales heads for initial contact.
-
Build short, repeatable demos. In exhibition settings technical clarity and integration capability with dealer systems are decisive.
-
Offer a concise pilot proposal. Provide measurable KPIs and a clear timeline to move from conversation to trial.
-
Plan immediate follow up. A structured follow up window of one to two weeks helps convert meetings into pilots or demonstrations.
Sustainability and social initiatives
The event highlights sustainability actions and social initiatives alongside commercial programming. Awards, evening networking and partnerships with charitable projects appear among the activities associated with the event.
