The North American Trailer Dealers Association is an association that is built on finding ways to increase the overall business performance for our members. Every program that we provide, including our annual trade show, is created with that in mind. One of our favorite ways of engaging with our members is through our Dealer Education webinar series.
Our first couple webinars, Increase Profits for Your Dealership in 2017 hosted by Rainmaker Consulting and Beyond Your Website – Why Online Advertising, Social Media, and Reputation Management Matter hosted by Netsource Media, was a massive success to start off the year. Our January webinar, for example, had one of the highest participation rates with 50 + dealerships preregistered. The feedback and comments we received about both of our webinars lets us know that we’ re on the right track to help guide the industry in a positive direction.
These, along with our trade show’ s dealer education and technical workshops, are designed to offer information that will help your dealership improve. A successful dealership isn’ t something that pops up overnight. It is something that takes time to mature. We hope that, by participating in the different types of events we host, your dealership cultivates that success at an exponentially faster rate. If you have topics you think should be discussed, please let us know. We would love to make sure we’ re providing relevant information that our members will find educational and useful.
None of what we do here at the association would be possible without the support of our members. We’ d like to thank every dealer who participated in the 2017 NATDA Proud Member program. This reminded everyone here at the association of just how many wonderful people we encounter throughout the day. Thank you to all our dealers, manufacturers and vendors for continuing to make this such a wonderful association!
