Deadline Extended for AASA Channel Excellence Award

Deadline Extended for AASA Channel Excellence Award

The application deadline has been extended to Feb. 8 for the AASA Channel Excellence Award Presented by Epicor.

The Automotive Aftermarket Suppliers Association (AASA) has extended the deadline to submit applications for the AASA Channel Excellence Award presented by Epicor.

As you prepare your submission, AASA recommends a keep a few things in mind:

• Lead with 2021 innovations. Did you utilize innovative digital business processes, technology, data analytics, robotics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, AR/VR and/or blockchain?

• Focus on a project. Did you champion a collaboration between an aftermarket supplier (manufacturer) and a channel partner (retailer, e-tailer, distributor, repair facility, national service chain)?

• Demonstrate impact. How did you advance the aftermarket, increase sales, reduce costs, prepare the aftermarket for becoming more digital or competing in the new digital world, significantly enhance efficiencies, and/or support the independent repair community’s ability to compete and service advanced vehicles?

Still need a few ideas? Videos and presentations of past winners are available on the AASA website. The deadline to submit applications is Tuesday, Feb. 8.
