MARINE SALES RECEIVES NATIONAL RECOGNITION

Marine Sales of Pickwick joined the ranks of being one of the TOP 100 boat dealers in America by Boating Industry magazine. Ron Martin, Ronnie Martin and Chip Moore represented our entire team at this year's Boating Industry Magazine Top 100 Gala event in Orlando.

This is the first year that Marine Sales has received this prestigious award, which is based on “dependable dealers” that can consistently:

• Exceed sales and service expectations
• Displays a consistent and clear understanding that the profitability of the organization is directly related to the extent that it focuses on customer satisfaction;
• Provides customers with an experience worth returning for and recommending to others;
• Prepares for future success with sound planning, marketing and training initiatives;
• Ensures an exceptional boating lifestyle…

With over 4000 marinas and boat dealerships across North America, applications for the Top 100 Program were considered by a non-partisan panel of industry giants including a cross section of finance companies, boat manufacturers, vendors and engine manufacturers.

These panelists judged dealers based on set criteria including current financial success, long range planning and viability, customer satisfaction and retention, and their efficiency of internal systems.

“Boating Industry’s Top 100 Dealers Program is not about the dealers that sell the most marine products and services,” said Liz Walz, editor-in-chief of Boating Industry. “Rather, it’s a resource for consumers looking to have the best boat ownership experience, from boats, parts and accessories sales to service, storage and more.”

More than 350 people joined Boating Industry to honor the Top 100 Dealers at a black-tie celebration. Marine Sales of Pickwick stood proudly side-by-side with some of the largest yachting operations in the nation.

“This award is a tribute to our loyal customers for their continuous support of our business, our hard-working employees and the confidence we receive from our dealer principals.” said Ron Martin general manager of Marine Sales of Pickwick.
