Auto Care Association Unveils Expanded Marketing and Communications Awards

Aug. 28, 2024
Formerly only offered by Women in Auto Care, the Automotive Communications Awards have expanded to spotlight anyone in the industry working in marketing.

The Auto Care Association has expanded the Women in Auto Care Automotive Communications Awards to anyone in automotive marketing and communication, according to a new press release.

For over a decade, Women in Auto Care has awarded women in the field who showcase innovation in marketing and communication. 

Now, rebranded as the Auto Care Marketing and Communications Awards, ACA intends to spotlight anyone who is pioneering communication strategies in the auto care industry.

Nominations have officially opened for the awards, which comprises categories including sustainability and environmental messaging, innovative usage of artificial intelligence, and best use of influencer marketing.

Winners will be recognized at next year’s Auto Care Connect, as part of a new awards ceremony that will host nearly 1,000 aftermarket executives.

“The Auto Care Association is always searching for ways to shine a spotlight on those who help our industry flourish,” said ACA President and CEO Bill Hanvey. “The expansion of the annual Automotive Communications Awards to the new Auto Care Marketing and Communications Awards ensures that new and emerging areas of communication are recognized and that our industry stays current with the latest methods of communication.”
