Dealers’ Choice Awards Voting Ends Today
TORRANCE, Calif. — Voting for the 2018 Dealers’ Choice Awards ends tonight, the publishers of Auto Dealer Today announced. The survey will remain open until midnight Eastern time.
This year’s survey includes 34 categories. Each voter must manually enter their industry partners’ company names for each category, and each voter must complete five categories for their votes to register. Voters are also asked to score the companies they recognize on the quality of the product or service they deliver, customer service, value for money spent, and whether they would recommend the company to another dealer.
Dealers are encouraged to share the survey with colleagues, but each voter may only vote once, and completed survey are spot-checked for veracity. Winners will be announced in late June and will be recognized in a special ceremony at Industry Summit 2018 in Orlando in October.
