Motion Pro launches minimum advertised price policy
News Release
Motion Pro announces their new Minimum Advertised Price Policy (MAP), a move to protect the Motion Pro brand, their products and retailers. The policy is effective September 1, 2014.
In order to protect the Motion Pro brand as a premium offering and preserve the company’s reputation for providing customers with quality products, best in class support, and protect the company’s competitiveness in the marketplace and the image of its products, Motion Pro is unilaterally adopting a Minimum Advertised Price Policy (MAP) for Motion Pro products. This Minimum Advertised Price Policy will apply to all distributors and retailers, including internet retailers, who resell Motion Pro products to end users located in the United States. The Motion Pro MAP Policy is being adopted for the benefit of all Resellers and will be uniformly enforced.
“We believe that this policy is fair for all customers and will help to protect the value of our products and our brand for everyone involved” said Brandon Baldwin, sales and marketing director for Motion Pro.
For a copy of the Motion Pro MAP Policy and for more information, contact Kevin Veltfort at (650) 517-8351 or e-mail kevin@motionpro.com.
this is about time and the O.E.M.s could learn from this too !!!! they spend all there money trying to get customers back in the door to look at there models at the dealerships, but they support shop-a-tron and others that ship cheap oem parts over the internet, so the customer who needs a brake lever that you have on your shelf never comes in to see new or used of what you may have, and you can’t ever ask the question “would you like to trade yours for a new or used one that we have. usually the parts come from states that have low overhead incl. land taxes, payroll overhead and i would bet have sub-standard dealership!!! there would be shouts of joy if the OEM company put this policy in effect, wake up!!! before all dealer ships start closeing down!!!!
