Auto Remarketing is launching a new project this year to honor the “Best Auto Auctions to Work For,” and it’s one in which you can get directly involved.

In fact, we need your help to make it work. First, the details:

Best Auto Auctions to Work For

What is it?
A workplace study for the auto auction industry that will recognize the best auto auctions to work for (on an unranked basis).

It is designed and intended for individual auction locations — no corporate or HQ offices; just individual auction locations.

It is absolutely free/no charge for auctions to participate.

Winners will be recognized in the Sept. 15 edition of Auto Remarketing and at a special Best Auto Auctions to Work For recognition breakfast on Nov. 17 during the National Remarketing Conference/NAAA Convention.

Who is conducting the study?
Auto Remarketing, teaming with Best Companies Group in Pennsylvania, is underwriting the study.

However, the study will be managed by, and data analyzed 100 percent, by the staff of Best Companies Group (BCG). 

Best Companies Group will directly administer all of the surveys and manage/analyze all of the data and information.  No input from Auto Remarketing staff.

How are auctions chosen?

The Best Companies Group will analyze the data from the group of auctions choosing to participate and develop metrics and standards based on that data to determine which auctions are named to the list of Best Auto Auctions to Work For. 

It’s either pass or fail, and ONLY those auctions that pass will be included in results.  Auto Remarketing will NOT publish information on auctions that participate and do not meet the criteria required. And, again, there are no rankings.

Alright, I’m in. What do I need to do to participate?
For individual auction locations to participate, the general manager/leader of that auction needs to opt in at this website, www.bestautoauctionstoworkfor.com, by April 22.

Registration is now open.

More information and answers to many of your questions can also be found at that same website. Auto Remarketing and its print, digital, email and social media channels will be keeping you posting as this project progresses.

But for now, if you are an auction GM, make sure your auction has what it needs to participate by registering at www.bestautoauctionstoworkfor.com by April 22.
