Tom Marx to Present Proven Success Methods for Product Launches at July 1 SEMA Webinar

June 8, 2010 - PRLog -- (San Rafael, CA) – Tom Marx, president, The Marx Group, will be the guest speaker for the SEMA Webinar, "Produce the Perfect Product Launch," on Thursday, July 1. Marx, an active member of SEMA, will help aftermarket professionals learn proven methods to leverage their next product launch so they can benefit from improved sales and awareness. The webinar will take place from 10 am to 11 am (PST).

“In a crowded marketplace, you can't afford to miss a beat with a new product launch,” said Marx. "After major investments in development, engineering and manufacturing, the initial marketing strategy is often overlooked, underfunded or poorly executed, and the product never reaches its sales goals."

Whether companies are contemplating a product launch or are already down the road in the process, Marx will help explain the most important things to focus on. This includes what Marx calls the six P's: Planning, Product, Pricing, Placement, Promotion and Participation. Marx is a past president of the Automotive Communication Council (ACC) and writes two monthly eNewsletters that provide marketing, business management and merger and acquisition insights and strategies.
