Nominations are being accepted for the annual Aftermarket Product of the Year award.
The award will be announced Aug. 13 at the RV Aftermarket Conference in San Antonio.
The award recognizes products that exemplify the best work in the RV aftermarket.
A panel of RV parts and accessories experts from RV dealerships and a group of RV distributor judges will evaluate all nominations.
Judges will be evaluating products based on the following criteria:
- Innovation: The product was developed with new features that meet real and present unmet market demands in a way other products have not done previously or addressed unmet market demand with significant, measurable value.
- Attraction: The product has desirable features or qualities that invoke high consumer interest and/or solves a significant problem or a need.
- Endurance: The product’s material components, design and construction/assembly have easily recognizable qualities that create longevity.
- Value: The product’s use and high-impact results inspire repetitive purchases and/or inspire consumers to recommend the product as a leading solution.
- Visibility: The product includes the ability for consumers to easily discover, identify and engage with the product. It is attractively packaged to increase inventory turns through merchandising and marketing.
- Usability: Consumers’ overall experience is enhanced with instructions and/or other (digital or printed) applications that are conveyed in a simple/concise way.
Products released since the last aftermarket conference are eligible. The cost to submit is free.
