ENTER 2018's DEALER OF THE YEAR AWARDS NOW

Entries are now open for this year’s Dealer of The Year competition - and dealers can nominate their own businesses via the Service Dealer website.

As ever the glittering presentation ceremony will take place in the evening at the Oxford Belfry Hotel following the Service Dealer Conference, which this year takes place on Thursday November 15th.

Winning a category not only is superb recognition of you and your team's hard work and dedication throughout the year, but the attendant publicity could be a real boost to a dealership's profile both locally and nationally.

Like last year, the core dealer categories for the 2018 competition are:

• GARDEN MACHINERY DEALER OF THE YEAR
• PROFESSIONAL TURFCARE DEALER OF THE YEAR
• FARM MACHINERY DEALER OF THE YEAR
• FORESTRY EQUIPMENT DEALER OF THE YEAR
• ATV/QUAD DEALER OF THE YEAR

As well being able to nominate yourself, a dealership can also be nominated by customers, suppliers, manufacturers. Many factors are taken into account when judging the categories, but the most important is customer feedback - which will be acquired online throughout the year. The judging panel will meet in October to assess entries.

There are also two other award categories:

• Star of The Dealership
• Apprentice of The Year

With these categories we want you to tell us who really goes that extra mile to help make your business a success. This is a great opportunity to nominate an employee who exceeds expectations within your business.

So don't delay. Make sure your dealership is in with a chance this year. Visit www.servicedealer.co.uk/2018-award-nominations and this year it could be you!
