Leading the League: Recognizing Brands That Support Jobbers
The AAM Group continues its commitment to supporting local jobbers through Leading the League, a video series highlighting companies that actively invest in the success of independent shops. Hosted by AAM President, Tim Odom, the series provides insights from industry leaders who recognize the vital role jobbers play in the automotive aftermarket.
Recent episodes have featured Lippert Automotive and RealTruck, both of which have demonstrated a strong commitment to helping jobbers grow their businesses. The series will soon spotlight AirLift, a company known for its dedication to innovation and aftermarket support. By fostering these partnerships, Leading the League reinforces AAM’s mission to grow the aftermarket industry by supporting local, brick-and-mortar shops.
“At AAM, our focus is on strengthening the independent jobber network by aligning with brands that share our vision,” said Tim Odom. “Leading the League highlights the companies that are not just selling products but actively supporting the businesses that install them.”
