Akebono launches summer Sell Brakes, Get Rewards promotion
Akebono Brake Corporation is helping its retail counter and commercial phone sales team enjoy the summer by rewarding them with gift cards for selling these brake pads. The promotion started May 15 and will run through Aug. 15, 2013. Akebono will reward retail and phone sellers with a $25 American Express Prepaid Card for every 12 sets of Akebono brake kits sold, including the best-in-class Pro-ACT®, EURO® and Performance® ultra-premium ceramic brake pads.
“This promotion achieves two important objectives for Akebono,” said Ken Selinger, director, Akebono Aftermarket sales and marketing. “It creates an enthusiasm in the marketplace for our industry-leading products and recognizes the hardworking sales force that delivers superior products and service to its customers by installing Akebono brake pads.”
Because the promotion provides sellers with a bonus for every dozen kits sold, dealers are encouraged to boost their summer inventories. Details on the program are available at http://akebono.4myspiff.com. Claiming the prize is as easy as completing an online registration, and mailing invoices to the location specified on the website.
“Our retail customers know that when they sell Akebono brake pads, they are selling the best performing brake pad available,” added Selinger. “This rewards them with greater profitability and satisfied customers.”
