The overall goal was to give Western Star’s brand advocate community an identity: #StarNation. To do this, we launched and legitimized Star Nation with a first-of-its-kind industry event, which included creating an unexpected, relatable “mascot” (STARSQUATCH) with a goal to drive activations across social and tradeshow touchpoints. The execution was driven through partners and UGC, which amplified customer pride in the industry and the brand while creating brand envy with conquest customers. ![western-star-tradeshow5](https://engageadcom.com/hubfs/western-star-tradeshow5.jpg) ![western-star-tradeshow1](https://engageadcom.com/hubfs/western-star-tradeshow1.jpg) ## Results: Millions of authentic cross-channel impressions and engagements, thousands of leads captured for future marketing initiatives, dealer marketing activation and increased market share. **Contact** # LET’S ACHIEVE SOMETHING AWESOME TOGETHER. ![Divider line](https://engageadcom.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/Adcom/images/line.png) ![Location icon](https://engageadcom.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/Adcom/images/location.svg) [1468 W 9th St. Suite 600 Cleveland, OH 44113](https://maps.app.goo.gl/LeRQfB3mfatfu5vM6) ![Phone icon](https://engageadcom.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/Adcom/images/phone.png) [216.574.9100](tel:+12165749100) ![Divider line](https://engageadcom.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/Adcom/images/line.png) ## The last agency contact form you’ll ever fill out.
