It’s deadline day for entries for the AM Awards 2012 which will be held at the International Convention Centre in Birmingham on February 15, 2012.

An AM award brings with it the respect of the industry and publicly acknowledges the importance of the people in your business and is an ideal way to give your teams a pat on the back.

A great many dealers agreed last year, leading to a record number of entries.

The awards are being audited by MSX International and the categories and judging process have been refined to make sure the industry is looked at as a whole and spotlights the real achievers.

Christopher Macgowan, former chief executive of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders and visiting professor at Buckingham University’s Business School’s Centre for Automotive Management, is an independent chairman to the judging panel.

There are also two new categories for the 2012 awards, Best Fleet Dealership and Tyre Retailer of the Year.

Anyone with last minute entries can contact Luke Clements luke.clements@bauermedia.co.uk or for more information see www.am-awards.co.uk.

More details on the host and evening entertainment will be revealed in the next few weeks.
