MCACN Needs Your Help With Social Media

Chances are if you are reading this eblast, you already know what a cool event the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show is. Yes, we have (literally) hundreds of remarkable cars, Muscle Bicycles, Mini-Bikes and so much more (along with the occasional truck!) but it really is the people that make our event so cool. Many have said it is like a family reunion, with like-minded enthusiasts that join us from across the country, Canada and even as far away as England, Japan, Australia and other countries ever year, the weekend before Thanksgiving. With the easy access via the Chicago O'Hare Airport, Seven Official Host Hotels, (FIVE right across the street!) the Rosemont Entertainment District and the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, it really is the perfect place for what we do and for what we all love.

With that being said, with more than 15 years of producing the MCACN show, there are still so many people out there that simply don't know about us, or don't understand what a cool event it is. And that is where we need your help.

FACEBOOK:

With so much happening for us at MCACN headquarters nearly every day year round, we always have something to talk about or to show you. I try to post every day on our facebook page and it is always short, sweet and to the point. Now...the key to making this work is for you to help us spread the word by sharing our posts. This is a simple way for us to let as many enthusiasts out there know about what we do and to provide reasons to join us. https://www.facebook.com/MCACN

INSTAGRAM:

OK, let me say, I'm the first to admit we need a LOT of help here. I often call on Ian and my Granddaughters to chime in with advice, as quite honestly, this an area I know we need to utilize. This may be one platform that appeals to a younger demographic, and bottom line is, we need to let younger folks know we want them to be a part of what we do. Our new Modern Muscle and Malaise Era special displays are designed to prove this point, and besides, they are just plain fun. Vicki is getting a bit more comfortable, but we are by no means savvy, so again, please help us here by asking others to follow us and in joining us in the conversations, participating in polls, and sharing our posts. @mcacn_show

"X": Formerly Twitter:

We have been using this platform for a while. It's great for links and short blasts of information. If you are still a Twitter (X) user and are willing to mention us in your posts, @MCACN or "Retweet" our posts that would be appreciated.

GOOGLE REVIEWS:

I get compliments and great feedback, emails and notes on a regular basis from nice people that tell me how much they like and appreciate what we do. It would be great to see some of these on our Google Reviews. Please help us by chiming in and leaving us a review. To leave us a google review click here:

TIKTOK:

We are Waaaaay out of our element on TikTok but every person under the age of 25 seems to refer to TikTok as the place to see informational videos about almost anything. If you have a TikTok account, tag us @mcacnshow when you share a video about the MCACN show. When Vicki and I are at the show, we rarely have no time to shoot videos. This platform may not reach our core demographic, but it might reach their kids or grandkids who might share it with a car enthusiast- LOL.

MCACN MAILING LIST AND MAGAZINE:

If you are anything like me, you still like to sit back, grab a cup of Joe and actually read a print magazine. I love to write it, I love to read it and our publication has become somewhat of a collectible. With 88 pages of color, I feel this may be our best marketing tool. It has a bit of an "Old School" feel to it and the annual edition gives good insight as to what you will see at the next show. You can get yours FREE by signing here on our mailing list:

MCACN E-blast:

Obviously you already get this, but we would love to have you share it with anyone who may be interested. Each one features a special car that is joining us, has some fun related info about things that are happening and we also let you know when we are attending an event in person. *(Emails must be confirmed by recipient if added)

The Supercar Registry (AKA SYC)

The SuperCar Registry (AKA SYC) offers enthusiasts a place to discuss all things SuperCar. There are specific threads dedicated to MCACN discussions. There are also Marque specific conversation threads, classified ads and info on their sponsors (many of whom are also MCACN Sponsors) Its a good place to meet like minded automotive enthusiasts and join in the conversation, share your MCACN pics and memories and more!

THE BOTTOM LINE: Everyone knows that to produce an event that is the caliber of what we do it costs a lot of money. While none of the MCACN Members ever planned on retiring from the proceeds of the show, we do need to be a viable business. That means selling spectator tickets. Yes...perhaps not the best business plan but that is the proverbial bottom line! To sell spectator tickets we need to let people know what we have to offer and I truly feel that we have a great "product" to offer, something unlike any other. Please help us spread the word, invite your friends and family, (heck...invite your enemies too as long as they can behave!) -Thanks!

OUR OFFICIAL SPONSORS: Please show your support by doing business with our Official Sponsors. To be an Official Sponsor of the MCACN show, whether big or small, you must be among the best in the business. We pride ourselves in working with the Best, and we do not allow Sponsors that do not share our passion, enthusiasm and commitment to the hobby.

WITH SINCERE APPRECIATION: We truly appreciate each and every one of you that continue to support what we do. Please plan on joining us, whether you are a participant or a spectator when we return to the beautiful Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont (Suburban Chicago!) Illinois Saturday, November 23 and Sunday, November 24, 2024.
