The magazine has helped us connect with customers who really want our trike kit, allowing us to focus more time on meeting their needs and preferences rather than developing other marketing strategies. The sales and creative staff are dedicated professionals committed to making the advertising process easy for a small, non-techie business owner. They have made sure my vision of Trike On America comes across on the pages of Wing World. I have found Wing World magazine to be an affordable and valuable tool in growing Trike On America s motorcycle trike conversion kit brand. Thanks, Wing World, for putting us in the hands of consumers who really respond to our advertising. We get a great return on this investment.
