RV Industry Power Breakfast
One of the RV industry’s can’t-miss trade events, the RV Industry Power Breakfast, facilitated by RVBusiness, draws more than 800 people each May to Elkhart, Ind., for a morning program that features presentations by not only the RV and camping industry’s marquee newsmakers, but noteworthy speakers from outside the RV arena.
Top 50 Dealer Awards
Called the “centerpiece” of the National RV Dealers Convention & Expo, the Top 50 Dealer Awards is a comprehensive program that recognizes those North American RV dealers deemed best for outstanding customer service, operational innovation, charitable outreach and general excellence in overall business practices. Honored dealerships often will leverage the Top 50 distinction for competitive advantage. Manufacturer-nominated dealers are invited to complete a lengthy entry form, which is then scrutinized by a select panel of independent judges.
RV Of The Year
The RV industry’s premier program honoring the best towable and motorized products each model year, the RVBusiness RV of the Year award is a highly coveted honor among manufacturers who regularly use the distinction in their marketing programs. In recent years, Rollin’ on TV – the national television program featuring the RV lifestyle – has produced a special episode dedicated to the RV of the Year and four runners-up.
