The Client

Firestone is a prominent manufacturer in the automotive and tire industries. While they are best known for tires, Firestone has been a leading producer of air springs and suspensions since the 1930s, making it the world’s top provider in terms of variety and volume. As a result, almost all Class 8 trucks and numerous trailers currently on the roads are equipped with Firestone’s air springs and suspensions.

The Ask

As a key supplier to Daimler Truck North America (DTNA), Firestone joined forces with DTNA to launch the Firestone Airide Frontrunners contest. This competition recognizes the top Freightliner and Western Star dealers who excel in selling the Firestone Airide suspension. Kinetic was tasked with creating a first-class experience to honor the dealers’ sales achievements.
