In the past, Lance has relied on word-of-mouth marketing, but has recently decided to market his business in some magazines.

Contact a local club and arrange to display of a couple of your really nice pre-owned bikes. You can probably reach into your bag of tricks and put up a 10'x10' tent with some signage, a section of indoor/ outdoor carpet and a couple of chairs.

Thanking their customers is a smart move on Toyota's behalf and one that I applaud. However, we can't overlook the fact that Black people represent almost 10 percent of Toyota's American market share, and with a $1.2 billion annual advertising budget it is not unreasonable for the Black Press to always expect to have a stake in Toyota's advertising. Nevertheless, Black newspapers were left off Toyota's latest marketing campaign, sending a clear and direct message that the Black consumer is still being taken for granted and Black people are still being disrespected and undervalued.
