The Dealer Certification Program (formerly known as “T1
Certification”) provides powerful support from AMSOIL to help you build your
business. As announced in the January AMSOIL
Magazine, you can now qualify for three separate categories, each of which
unlocks a new set of benefits. See the Dealer
Certification FAQ for answers to frequently
asked questions about the new Dealer Certification program.

Updated Requirements for Retail Accounts to Appear on the AMSOIL Locator
We’ve updated the minimum purchase amounts for your retail
accounts to remain active on the AMSOIL Locator at www.amsoil.com. Your retail accounts must purchase a minimum of $350 ($450 Canada)
of product within the previous three months. They can meet any of the following
purchase requirements to remain active on the AMSOIL Locator:
U.S. Canada
$350 in the previous 3 months $450
in the previous 3 months
$700 in the previous 6 months $900
in the previous 6 months
$1,050 in the previous 9 months $1,350
in the previous 9 months
$1,400 in the previous 12 months $1,800
in the previous 12 months
The minimum purchase amount to receive a free Merchandising Kit
for qualifying accounts has also increased to $350 ($450 Canada). These minimal
increases allow us to continue offering these benefits while contending with
increasing raw-material costs and rising freight costs due to truck driver
shortages and a reduction in routes and capacity of rail transportation.
P.C. Quotes Using EZ Order & Quote Form
With the recent differentiation between Preferred Customer and
Dealer pricing, we have modified the EZ
Order & Quote Form by adding a Preferred
Customer option under the “Generate Quick Quote” functionality. Dealers may now
generate quotes for Dealers, P.C.s, retail accounts and commercial accounts.
In a related change, P.C. prices have been added to the Product
Pricing Lookup located in the Mobile Apps
section of the Dealer Zone.

Briggs & Stratton Synthetic 4T Racing Oil Now Available for Resale in Canada
In 2011, we entered a partnership with leading small engine
manufacturer Briggs & Stratton to develop a motor oil specifically for the
company's most demanding racing engines. Briggs
& Stratton Synthetic 4T Racing Oil was the result.
Historically, Canadian Dealers could purchase limited quantities
of the product for promotional purposes only and not for resale in Canada.
We're happy to announce the elimination of that restriction. Canadian Dealers
may now purchase Synthetic 4T Racing Oil for resale in Canada.
We've updated the product with a bi-lingual label to comply with
Canadian law. While AMSOIL products with bi-lingual labels are typically
available for sale only in Canada, we're making an exception in this case due
to our partnership with Briggs & Stratton. For that reason, all bottles of
Synthetic 4T Racing Oil now feature a bi-lingual label regardless of the
country in which they're sold. This helps keep costs down and streamline
distribution.
For product details, see the updated Briggs & Stratton
Synthetic 4T Racing Oil product data bulletin (G3114).

Canadian Interline Fee Changes
Loomis Express has changed the way interline fees are determined
and expanded the number of Canadian postal codes that are subject to interline
fees. Interline fees are applicable to small parcel shipments below 250 lbs.,
where the final destination address is classified by Loomis as remote or a
beyond-delivery point. Due to the number of postal codes affected, a new lookup
tool is available on the shipping
information page at amsoil.com.
