| A MESSAGE TO PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS OF THE PERFORMANCE WAREHOUSE ASSOCIATION / PAR PROGRAM Thank you for your interest in the Performance Warehouse Association's retailer group. PAR is an organization of specialty automotive Jobber/Retailers joined together and dealing with management, financial and legislative matters. This description is only an overview and as you read through our web pages it will become evident that much more is accomplished through participation in PAR. In recent years, the private sector has been under attack by consumer groups, governmental agencies, and labor pressures that make it impossible for an individual, engaged in private enterprise, to defend themselves against all of these highly organized groups alone. Therefore, your best chance for survival depends on grouping yourself with others of similar needs. Our Association is your answer. PAR is governed by the Performance Warehouse Association's Board of Directors. The officers and directors act on behalf of the members. In addition, an Executive Director is appointed by the Board who manages the PWA office. PWA directors are elected to a two-year term by the warehouse distributor (active) membership which represents the United States, Canada and International. The President and Treasurer are also elected by the active membership to a two-year term. PAR was formed in 1990 with the objective of helping you achieve success in a competitive marketplace. For about 5 cents a day, you can direct consumers to your store. Once you are a PAR member you: - Receive priority status on DealerQuick(SM) Network Service.
- Get consumer referrals in your area when you sell DealerQuick manufacturers' products.
