Free TESTRIDEâ„¢ days, paired with local festivals and events, allow consumers to experience features and benefits of new products on the water. "Pro-level anglers in TESTRIDEâ„¢ have special training with key product knowledge," shared George Liddle of LMC. "That means customers get to see the latest gear and try the equipment out on the water. With a pro sharing what they know about the products right there, it makes for a fun event. Even better-it's free."
The staff and pro anglers enjoy it, too. "I love taking potential boat buyers out for a TESTRIDEâ„¢," added TESTRIDEâ„¢ director George Feder. "We can showcase not just the boat and motor, but the full package-electronics and custom rigging. It's worth driving an hour to get to a TESTRIDEâ„¢ event. Folks will have a lot of fun and find it very educational."
Special contests and prizes are part of the TESTRIDEâ„¢ experience, so going home with free gear and goodies is a common occurrence. "Boats are a big investment and TESTRIDEâ„¢ is an easy way customers can try one out with absolutely no obligation," shared Troy Morris, Ranger Boats Regional Sales Representative. "Customers experience the fit and finish and the ride: how well the engine performs, how the boat handles, even how the depth finder works. It's great to be able to offer it."
Dealers appreciate being able to dovetail into the event with their products. "We love this kind of promotion through Evinrude and Ranger," shared Wendy Heim of Pamp's Outboard in Green Bay, Wisc. "It's a great selling tool and we generate a lot of sales from TESTRIDEâ„¢ events."
