“Leading Edge believes that we must be part of something bigger than ourselves. Being a member of RDA is essential to our future success. We have seen improvement in our operations, sales process and margins. Through the networking, IMPACT Performance Products, business and marketing programs and best practices that RDA provides we have seen savings of over $100K annually.”
Matthew Johnson, WESCO/Leading Edge Auto Refinishes, Inc.
“I feel being a member of RDA is important because ACS’s future success requires having the knowledge, information and capacity that enables us to adapt to future changes in economics, business conditions, and the ever-changing needs of our customers. That is a difficult thing to do if you are a small or medium-sized business with limited resources. RDA enables other like-minded distributors in the same circumstance to come together and create strategies and platforms that will position each individual distributor within the group at the top of their respective markets. I enjoy the collaboration with my peers to solve problems. Cost-savings to my business and to my customers, as well as the ability to offer national programs that would otherwise be unattainable as an individual business is another benefit that he appreciates. I believe the greatest benefits of being involved with RDA have not yet been realized. We have extraordinary potential!”
Josh Byers, President, Automotive Color & Supply Corporation
“The decision to join RDA came in July 2011 because of the ability to communicate and network with distributors that we do not compete against. We all are fighting the same battles, just in different markets. The financial benefits were immediate. By taking advantage of the IMPACT Product brands and the preferred manufacturers our company has saved in excess of $20,000.00 annually. More importantly, being involved with RDA allows us to learn from some of the best distributors in the country and helps us compete with national players.”
Glen Bohte, Vice President, Mike & Jerry’s Paint and Supply
“The demands of today’s business climate can be overwhelming, but being a member of RDA makes us feel like we are not alone. Working together we have the ability to compete in the ever changing, competitive auto body supply business. RDA gives us the resources we need today to stay ahead of the curve and continue to improve our business. The IMPACT Performance Products give us the ability to differentiate ourselves in our market. One of the greatest values of being a member is the networking with peers. It allows us to discuss issues and come up with ideas to address these issues as a group. The financial benchmarking gives us the direction to know where we may have shortcomings and also holds us accountable for improving in those areas. l Knowing we are not alone and part of a larger more powerful group gives us the ability to do things for our customers with confidence. This in turn helps bring us new customers and keeps our existing customer base very loyal to us.”
Lonnie Kocmick, General Manager, Refinish Supply Company
