"With the
economy and increasing travel costs, the SEMA Show has become more
important than ever for us. It’s the only way we can meet all of our

Recessions don’t last forever and already we see signs of recovery. That
makes this SEMA Show a ‘must-do’ to capture more sales in 2010"

"Regardless
of economic climate, getting your brand, your products, and your services
in front of your core customer base is vital. It’s important to debut new
products and meet new customers, but equally important to re-connect with
existing customers, remind them that their continued support is
appreciated. Just being at the Show with a creative display, exciting
products and a positive attitude sends the message that while business has
slowed, we’re still here, we’re still succeeding, and if you stick with us
we can help you do the same."

"For almost
four decades, the SEMA Show has been our single most important event of
the year and it will be even more so this year. As the industry pulls
together to get through these difficult days, manufacturers can't afford
to be out of sight and out of mind. Far better to be creatively smaller
than to not be there at all."

Beta was attracted to the SEMA Show because of the new Powersports
Section. By including motorcycles, ATVs and other outdoor recreation
products, Beta immediately wanted to be included. We felt the SEMA Show
would be a great place to showcase our 2010 models to not only the avid
off-road motorcycle rider, but the car and truck audience as well."
