Approaching the year anniversary of the launch of Team Phantom, the program has proven successful in the inaugural territories, leading to rapid expansion throughout 2017.  The team, who visit shops in the signature Team Phantom showcase trucks, was created to further deliver on AAMP’s core mission, to serve the 12-volt industry with tools, programs, and initiatives that support the dealer channel, partnering in the success of their specialty retail partners, and aiding them in growth and profitability.

“We launched Team Phantom with big plans to scale,” explained vice president of sales Herb Brown, “with lofty expectations on the shoulders of the first members. The team has delivered on those expectations and then some. Part of the magic of the Team Phantom program is the level of expertise each of the team members brings to the table. The selection process is stringent, and they go through an intense vetting process. But the results are worth it. The team isn’t coming to chat about the weather, they are in our customers’ stores, understanding their business and digging in to find creative ways to help.  All of this so we can become a true partner and pillar to their success. Affecting customer-driven changes in not only sales, but throughout the entire AAMP organization giving customers a voice in product development, marketing support and more.

CLEARWATER, FL (November 3, 2016) – AAMP Global introduces a new Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) policy kicking off with the PAC and EchoMaster brands. This policy is designed to protect the value and integrity of AAMP’s Power Brands, and AAMP’s network of retail partners.

Why Implement a MAP Policy?

The Internet has made it easier than ever for consumers to research products before they buy, and part of that process is price comparison. People can choose from a variety of online stores and vendors, and in many cases, they’ll go with whoever has the lowest price. For brick and mortar stores, this “showrooming” has been especially problematic.  Consumers look at products in person before buying them online at a lower price. Because online retailers have minimal overhead, the discounts can be incredibly steep. This not only disadvantages other retailers, but can devalue AAMP Global’s brands.

This new MAP policy prevents retailers from advertisingAAMP Power Brand products too cheaply, protecting the value of these solutions. The MAP agreement requires retailers to advertise the products at what they’re worth, and prevents online retailers with minimum overhead from offering steep discounts that give them an advantage over other sellers.

“We recognize the investments our brick and mortar retailers are making and the effect margin compression caused by online price erosion can have, especially within the AAMP portfolio of accessories.   AAMP invests large amounts of resource to engineer, develop and market these products, our mission with the new policy is to secure the margins our retail partners need to be successful.”   explained Scott Forst senior vice president of sales.

By implementing a MAP policy, AAMP Global hopes to free certified retailers from the burden of catering to price-driven bargain shoppers. Instead, AAMP’s products can be priced consistently in a way that reflects their true value.

AAMP has introduced the PACBCI-CH21, a plug-and-play kit that facilitates the installation of a backup camera system to select Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep vehicles with CAN-Bus.

The popularity of in-vehicle backup camera systems has grown, especially fueled by them becoming universal in new vehicles off the lot. But, with the average age of the vehicles on the road being 11, there are still many drivers out there looking to enhance their car with a backup camera system.

“The BCI-CH21, and the entire PAC line of backup camera integration modules, gives drivers the ability to add a backup camera system to their vehicle, while retaining the factory look and experience,” says PAC Product Manager, Nathan Wincek. “Beyond the consumer experience, we have also designed the piece to allow for easy plug-and-play installation, enabling professional installers to better serve their customers.”

According to a recent consumer survey conducted by AAMP, 42% of respondents felt having a backup camera is “very important” and 25% “important”, yet 70% of respondents’ vehicles did not currently have a backup camera system and 60% of respondents said they would like to add this feature to their current vehicle.

In addition to the BCI-CH21, AAMP offers a full range of products that allow drivers to add a backup camera to their existing vehicle. While the BCI-CH21 enables backup camera integration into your factory screen, through AAMP’s safety brand Echomaster, consumers also have the option to replace their rear view mirror, with a mirror that displays your backup camera projection, including park assist.

“We recognize how important it is to feel safe every time you get behind the steering wheel,” says Global Safety and Convenience GM, Shaun Findley (based in Bordon, UK) , “which is why we have developed a global line of products that give drivers the ability to easily add a backup camera to any vehicle. We also believe that you should be able to personalize your experience, which is why we have products that let you pick your view: through the factory screen, or in your rear view mirror; and pick your camera.”
