Guide to Automotive Organizations
Automobile associations provide members with a wealth of industry information
By Kelly Shetsky, Anchor/Reporter
An automotive association links you to workshops and seminars, which help you run your business more cost effectively. Members have access to products, services, educational information and workshops. Technical services and networking opportunities help you grow your business and improve your job performance. Consider:
1. Using car associations to grow as a professional in the industry.
2. Different group purchasing membership levels.
3. Taking advantage of educational and networking opportunities through automobile associations.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Join auto associations to grow as a professional
Automotive organizations range from international groups to state wide or local organizations. They are a collaborative of professionals just like you, with one goal in mind: to advance the automobile industry.
I recommend: The Automotive Consulting Group, Inc. provides a list of automotive trade associations. ABS Education Alliance is a coalition of companies that represent makers of anti-lock brakes. The Alliance's goal is to educate people how to use anti-lock braking systems properly. View and print ABS Education Alliance brochures online. Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) is an auto association that establishes standards for high quality, reliable electronic components. Contact members through the AEC website.
Pay annual dues to belong to an automotive professional organization
Car associations' dues usually range depending on the membership level. Once you find an association you want to join, decide what type of commitment your company is willing to give.
I recommend: Automotive Engine Rebuilders Association (AERA) supports the engine rebuilding industry. Professional engine builders, installers and rebuilders join together to provide a network of connections and expertise. Register with AERA by choosing between types of membership--US Machine Shop, International Machine Shop, US Associate Member, International Associate Member, Vocational Institutions, Government Entity or Engine Installer. Join the American International Automobile Dealers Association (AIADA) if you're looking for a trade organization of international nameplate automobile dealerships. The AIADA's goals are to advocate for a free market for international nameplate automobiles and to maintain members' economic viability. Register and view member benefits online.
Benefit individually and professionally from joining an automobile organization
When you join auto associations, you get access to magazines, business reports, technical support, specialized software, groups and forums. Not only do you rise to the top of your field, but you develop more self confidence.
I recommend: Association of International Automobile Manufacturers (AIAM) is an automotive association that focuses on the makers of international motor vehicles. Member benefits include analysis, information and advocacy on a large scope of issues. Membership requirements include detailed business information. There are two categories--full members and associate members. Learn more about the requirements and state-by-state economic impact online. Automotive Parts Rebuilders Association (APRA) is an automotive trade organization for companies that rebuild automotive parts for trucks, passenger cars, off-road, equipment, marine and industrial uses. Membership categories include remanufacturer, supplier, manufacturer representative and warehouse. See membership dues and register online.
