The NPA Auction Lounge is open at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday through Friday at the AIMExpo, offering dealers a complimentary breakfast and a chance to place bids at the Cincinnati and Atlanta auctions in real-time. The NPA Auction Lounge is simulcasting the Cincinnati auction Wednesday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the Atlanta auction on Friday, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., allowing dealers to place their bids on more than 2,500 pre-owned powersports vehicles.
The lounge is located in rooms #305A and B and offers Wi-Fi access as well as NPA-provided computers to allow dealers to participate in the simulcast events. An NPA representative who can answer questions regarding NPA registration, service and the auction process itself will staff the NPA lounge.
In addition to the NPA Auction Lounge, NPA will take part in an industry roundtable as part of PowerSports Business Institute @AIMExpo. KTM, GE Capital and Sheffield Financial will join NPA at the roundtable to answer questions from dealers about key segments of dealership revenue streams. Robin Hartfiel will moderate the roundtable, and the panelists will touch on the past, present and future of new and pre-owned powersports, and discuss both wholesale and retail financing for powersports dealers. NPA will take part in this exciting discussion Wednesday at 4 p.m. in room #203C.
