AMSOIL Locator Listings

I have been checking out the AMSOIL locator almost daily. I've found some errors that have been reported to AMSOIL. The new release of the locator and the "Premier Installer" listing seems to have some bugs. Retail Stores that don't install are listed, Premier listings as dealers and other things. I've also seen accounts show up on the search for a town, but when you go to the State listings and click on that town there are not there. 

Are you listed on the AMSOIL Locator? If so, be sure to check out your own listings. Secondly, there is a way to manage your personal profile, be sure if you have a website to have it listed there as well. I've notified several dealers on their team that their website was missing. https://my.amsoil.com/dealer/profile/locator-settings/

Secondly be sure to manage your ROTS customers, which you can do in the dealer.

The right program for the right person or account

Talking with AMSOIL Corporate they are working on some marketing to AMSOIL Dealers to encourage them to be in the right program. Many dealers sign up with hopes that they will work at the business, only to later find out they don't have time or the motivation. 

We wrote a blog post on our AMSOIL Dealer Training Blog about the 5 types of AMSOIL Dealers. If you are just buying AMSOIL for yourself or possibly family and friends, it may be better for you to be a Preferred Customer instead. If in the future you decide you want to become more active as an AMSOIL dealer you can always upgrade at any time. Read about the 5 Types of AMSOIL Dealers

To change from being a dealer to a Preferred Customer, just call customer service and request that you be a PC. You can also send them an email with your dealer number. 800-777-7094 or customerservice@amsoil.com

AMSOIL Preferred Customer Vs. Commercial Account for Small Business Owners

We recently ran into a situation where one of our commercial accounts was getting promotional email for the monthly PC give-a-ways. They called and complained that the promo code didn't work. Come to find out they were a PC in the past and once we determined they owned a business we encouraged them to become a Commercial Account. Then we started looking at their order history and determined for the amounts they order they probably should have stayed as a PC. They order enough throughout the year to earn a free PC membership and their orders throughout the year are about $200. Well below the requirement for free shipping as a commercial account. So they are paying $13.99 shipping. This made me realize to better qualify a commercial business to determine how much they plan on ordering. I made a page on my website explaining the differences between a commercial account vs a PC.
