James Baggott 227 Posted June 10, 2016 I've spoken to the guys at ATA and we've had a chat about how to use this forum. As I've said many times before, blatant promotion is not allowed. Outbound links, contact details and sales pitches are not allowed here. If companies want to promote their services to dealers that's what Car Dealer Magazine, CarDealerMag.co.uk and the paid for options for advertising are for on this forum. Remember, Car Dealer Magazine is sent FREE to dealers and that's only thanks to the support from advertisers who make that happen. I've left this thread in place as I am happy for the ATA guys to involve themselves here, however blatant self promotion by any company - other than dealers - is not allowed. I've updated you all here for reasons of transparency. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AutoTradeAssociates 1 Posted June 13, 2016 Hello all, Firstly, thank you James for making it clear regarding posting on the cardealermagazine forums. In response to the above, all information on membership is available once a dealership register’s thought the website (it is FOC to register). Membership is currently based on an annual subscription of £300+VAT, our first 100 members will also earn launch member status. James - if this post is deemed inappropriate please let us know and we will remove it, just wanted to clear the up the above confusion surrounding membership fee's. Based on the feedback we will have this visible publicly on the website shortly. Thank you for your support. ATA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
