TORRANCE, Calif. — Voting for the 12th annual Dealers’ Choice Awards is now open and will remain so until midnight on April 15.
Dealers and dealership personnel are encouraged to vote for their favorite vendors, suppliers, banks and finance companies in 34 categories covering new- and used-car leads, training, marketing, F&I products and more. Voters must write in the name of each company and score them in five categories, including whether they would recommend the provider to another dealer.
“As companies large and small have learned over the years, the Dealers’ Choice Awards are based on quality votes,” said David Gesualdo, publisher of Auto Dealer Today and F&I and Showroom. “We are extremely proud of our program, and I want to thank everyone who has already voted for giving their partners the chance to earn much-deserved national recognition.”
Honorees will win first-place Diamond, second-place Platinum and third-place Gold awards. The winners will be announced in May and listed in the July issue of Auto Dealer Today, and the awards will be presented at a special ceremony at Industry Summit in late August. Voters must complete five categories for their votes to count, and each voter will be eligible to win one of two Amazon Fire HD 7 tablet computers.
