TROY, MI Delphi Product & Service Solutions has reported a 78 percent participation rate for its Get Hooked on Delphi rewards program. In its third consecutive year, the program was redesigned and offered specifically to Delphi’s current customers in an effort to demonstrate appreciation and reward customer loyalty while helping to further enhance relationships between both Delphi and their own customers.
The program kicked off in May 2007 as participating customers collected points by successfully meeting program criteria. Warehouse distributors earned points by meeting stock and support programs, increasing net sales, adding new lines, participating in promotions and training services and achieving 100 percent utilization of co-op funds. Parts specialists and service professionals earned points through usage of in-store displays, usage of the vehicle electronics revolution message, increasing annual sales and participating in promotions and training.
In January, the customers who generated the most points earned an all-expense-paid trip for two to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where they attended the Delphi Awards
Ceremony. During the Awards Ceremony in Cabo San Lucas, Ed Rossy of All Car Automotive was named the Delphi Parts Specialist of the year, and Joshua Porter of Such’s Auto was named the Delphi Service Professional of the year. These prestigious honors recognize professionalism, expertise and commitment within the aftermarket industry.
