The collected data will be compared to previous benchmarks. Trends over the years will be analyzed, with results published and shared with the industry.

•          Industry publications

•          Information providers

•          I-CAR Industry Alliance partners newsletters

•          Industry co-ops and buying groups

•          Associations’ newsletters

•          Large paint distributors and others

It is estimated that this survey will be distributed electronically to over 20,000 shop managers and owners (one from each location). Survey respondents can enter to be eligible to win one of three American Express Gift Cards valued at $300, $200, and $100 respectively.

All responses will be kept confidential and results will be reported in aggregate; respondents will not be contacted; and the list will not be sold or shared.
