Make Money at Custom Bike Shows

1. Promote your participation at IMS via social media – (we’ve had enthusiasts come 2 states away to see bikes) — Use the IMS hashtags including #RidersUnite

2. Take a rag and always polish your bike – enthusiasts will come up and ask you if you are the owner

3. Make sure you have business cards and literature (make sure your handouts are current)

4. Introduce yourself to the IMS social media team (or any social media team at any show)

5. Listen as much as you talk – Try these techniques from a resent TED TALK – click here

RESULTS – Using these tactics,  builders have sold up to $60K in customization, developed sponsorships, sold custom parts and garnered features in online & print magazines.
