The Rhino Group was founded in 1996 by Lee Higgins in Manchester, England. The basic idea behind this business idea reflected the approach that both manufacturers and automotive dealerships can benefit from a platform that specifically deals with sales-promoting and sales-increasing campaigns and events.
This is how the idea for Rhino Events was born, and more than 10,500 events held across Europe prove this idea right. Rhino became the preferred choice for car dealers looking for an effective way to increase sales and sell their vehicle inventory in a controlled manner.
- In the first half of 2024 alone, Rhino hosted over 400 events, averaging 53 sales per event.
- This corresponds to a conversion rate of more than 60% of agreed appointments to sales.
Over the years, Rhino has continually adapted to changing market conditions to ensure that customers are presented with a contemporary and effective solution to their needs.
Event and action portfolio
Rhino provides a competitive range of different event and promotion categories that are tailored to the different needs of today’s automotive trade. This can even be customized for an entire trade organization in collaboration with a manufacturer or importer. Examples include:
- VIP-EVENT: This is the most booked, classic sales-boosting event.
- Private Sales: Customer loyalty in a special way.
- Pre-Launch EVENT: There is more than one covered vehicle.
- EV-Experience: Brings you “electrically” closer to your customers.
- „Black Friday“ EVENT: Who doesn’t know that?
It is particularly important to Rhino that there is a personal, individual briefing and coaching for the sales team of an automobile dealership for each event or type of campaign. HALO Booking and lead processing technology also always provides reliable support.
Trusted by TOP manufacturers
Over the years, Rhino has worked with well-known manufacturers and earned a very good reputation. First and foremost with Opel, but also with Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, Mazda, Peugeot, Jaguar Land Rover and BYD, to name just a small selection. In addition, Rhino works with automotive dealerships of all brands and successfully supports the respective sales activities with its campaigns and events.
