On the Map™ is an exclusive and FREE Parts Pro™ service that gets local retailers and installers of aftermarket performance accessories listed on the online dealer locators of the manufacturers they sell. With many consumers researching products online, but preferring to buy locally, On the Map™ helps to direct consumers to their local source for aftermarket products and services: you!

The best part is that you don’t have to spend time going to every single vendor website and submitting your information over and over again. The On the Map™ portal sends the same request to every manufacturer you select—saving you valuable time you’d rather be spending running your business.

Here’s how it works: visit theaamgroup.com/on-the-map, indicate the brands you actively sell or install, answer a few questions about your business, and click Submit. Within 4–6 weeks, you can expect to be listed on those dealer locators.

Note: Please select only those vendors you actively sell, as selecting all of them might flag the request for additional verification and slow down the process.

Benefits

  • Tells consumers searching for the products you sell that they have a local option.
  • Drive traffic and grow sales.
  • Saves you time by submitting your request to multiple manufacturers at once.
  • Absolutely free to use.

AAM File Center: One Source for Important Pricing and Data Information

AAM File Center

AAM File Center™ is a custom tool built just for Parts Pro™ jobbers and warehouse distributors. It can be accessed through the Insight™ account system or the Parts Pro™ website (Program Tools > AAM File Center™).

Designed to make important information accessible with just one login, AAM File Center™ is a permission-based system that shows users different content depending on who they log in as: a retailer/installer or WD employee.

For example, program retailers have access to current jobber pricing (including MAP and unilateral pricing) for supported Parts Pro™ lines. In addition, they can look up competitive price comparisons for many program AND non-program vendors alike to help them determine the most effective pricing strategies for their own local markets.

Warehouse distribution users can access that same pricing information plus a host of other important data such as member contracts, vendor policies and data forms, price sheets, the buyer’s calendar, and more.

To view the system at any level, you must have an Insight™ account. Just log in and look for the AAM File Center™ (DMS) module. If you aren’t yet registered, go to accounts.theaamgroup.com and register (it’s free!). Once approved, you’ll receive your log-in credentials via email.

PACE: Your Parts Pro WD’s New B2B Ordering Website!

Parts Pro’s parent company, The AAM Group™, recently began rolling out its new PACE B2B website to select Parts Pro™ member warehouses. If you’re among the lucky retailers and installers who buy from a WD offering PACE, you’ll have access to exciting new search, ordering, and customer-presentation capabilities that will take your buying and selling to the next level!

Powerful Search

The first feature you’ll want to know about is PACE’s powerful year/make/model lookup, which lets you find the application-specific part you need in just seconds. You can also search by category, brand, series, and part number, with auto-completing fields that help you narrow down the options.

Orders Up!

PACE makes ordering from your Parts Pro™ WD easier than ever, with inventory and cost checks; direct-to-WD order submissions; single or batched orders (to meet any minimum freight requirements); and the ability to write special notes, search past orders, export and print order reports, and much more!

Retail Friendly

PACE’s exclusive Retail Mode strips pricing so you can make product presentations to customers without showing them what’s behind the curtain, while the Price Manager tool lets you create on-the-fly custom quotes that adjust dynamically as you change numbers for margin dollars/percentage, time to complete job, and other variables; it will even show you competitive pricing and exchange-rate information! PACE also includes resources such as videos, warranties, installation instructions, and rebates/offers you can use to close more sales without ever leaving the system.

Mobile Ready

When you’re on the move, PACE works perfectly on your smartphone or tablet, so you’ll always be ready to do business—even when you aren’t behind the counter or in the shop!

Get Going!

Interested in learning more about how you can start using PACE? Contact your Parts Pro™ warehouse today to find out when their system will be going live!
