There's a new category in the AM Awards this time called The Bright Spark Award, and it is still open to entries.

We want dealers to submit entries about ideas and innovations, no matter how simple or complex, that have come from one of your members of staff to make a work process simpler, or save time or money, or just to solve a problem in some way.

"It might be a technician who's worked out how to find a customer's locking wheel nut key more quickly, a marketing manager who's devised a way to update customers on social media seamlessly, or a group director who has implemented a process roll out that is saving every site hundreds of pounds weekly.

"Whatever the case, this Bright Spark Award is a chance for dealers to get a valuable employees' clever thinking recognised and celebrated at the AM Awards 2020," said AM editor Tim Rose.

"Among the thousands of talented individuals working at dealerships in the UK there must be hundreds and hundreds of ideas that go up the line every year to help them and their employer operate more effectively."

Entrants need to go to the AM Awards website where they register to enter The Bright Spark Award, which is sponsored by CDK Global.
