Introduction

Welcome to the 2025 ADRO Dealer Program. We greatly appreciate your interest in working with our brand, and look forward to developing a strong mutual relationship with your business. 

Here at ADRO, we are committed to providing our customers with high quality aerodynamic parts engineered for motorsports. We aim to provide such products with the highest standard of customer service and education, with the end-goal of creating long lasting relationships with our customers across the globe. Our dealers play a vital role in communicating the benefits of our products to prospective customers, and our team is always seeking like-minded business partners who share similar core values. 

Below you will find a complete outline of our dealer program, highlighting important criteria that we require from all of our dealers. This includes our tiers and requirements, marketing requirements, map policies and violations, onboarding requirements, shipping logistics, damaged products and returns, product warranties, supporting criteria, and our requirements for check-ins. Understanding our criteria is crucial in maintaining a mutually beneficial relationship, and we ask that you take the time to review each element to this application prior to proceeding with the form fields at the bottom.

Please be sure to provide us with concise and detailed responses. Once you have completed our form, we will be automatically notified and our team will be in touch with you as soon as we can. We want to thank you in advance for taking the time to understand who ADRO is, and what we stand for. We look forward to working with you!

Tiers, Margins, and Requirements

Our dealer tiers are designed to provide equal market opportunities while offering competitive margins and incentives. All new dealers will begin at the introductory tier and may qualify for performance-based promotions or reductions depending on sales results and adherence to our supporting criteria.

Our goal is to maintain a fair and sustainable margin for our dealers while effectively managing operational costs. We are committed to helping each of our partners reach the highest tier as efficiently as possible. Your success will depend on how effectively your business markets and sells ADRO products, as well as your ability to meet our outlined requirements.

Marketing Requirements

The purpose of our marketing requirements is to help you build a successful strategy that strengthens your partnership with ADRO and increases awareness of our products among your customers. At a minimum, this includes:

1. Maintaining accurate and up-to-date website product listings.
2. Sharing ADRO products on your social media platforms.

Our marketing expectations are tailored to each dealer. During onboarding, we will set achievable goals and expectations based on your business capabilities. Our team will conduct monthly check-ins to ensure that your marketing activities remain aligned with those goals.

If adjustments are needed, we will work with you to make improvements that keep your objectives reasonable and attainable. However, continued lack of effort or failure to meet your agreed-upon goals may result in a strike. Any intentional misrepresentation of ADRO or public slander of the brand will not be tolerated and may result in immediate termination of your dealer status.

MAP Policy

ADRO.com lists all products at MSRP. Please reference our website if necessary to ensure that your dealer listings comply with the following criteria.

Our MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) policy requires that all ADRO products be listed and advertised at or above MSRP. Dealers are not permitted to advertise or promote prices below MSRP under any circumstances. This policy helps maintain brand integrity, pricing consistency, and fair competition across all sales channels.

Any dealer found advertising products below MSRP will be subject to immediate review and potential penalties, including the possibility of losing authorized dealer status. Please review your product listings regularly to ensure they remain compliant with ADRO’s MAP policy.

Violations, Strikes, and Termination

To maintain consistency and uphold our policy standards, ADRO uses a strike system that may result in tier reduction or termination if three strikes are received within a six-month period from the first strike. Each strike expires six months after the date it was issued.

Strikes may be issued for the following reasons:

1. Six months without any sales
2. Three months without a check-in
3. MAP violation
4. Marketing violation
5. Supporting criteria violation
6. Ignoring feedback or communication

We understand that you may be wondering how to avoid these violations. Our goal at ADRO is to help you succeed and to provide continued support throughout our partnership. During onboarding, we will equip you with the tools, resources, and guidance needed to build and maintain a successful dealer account. Our team is always available to help you optimize your sales and marketing efforts and to answer any questions that arise.

While our intention is to foster collaboration and growth, ADRO reserves the right to immediately terminate dealer privileges without notice in cases of serious or repeated violations.

Supporting Criteria

Our supporting criteria by definition is our perception of your business operations, and may be the most valuable element in maintaining a strong partnership with our team.

We’ve broken down our criteria into four main categories below:

1. Customer Satisfaction: Are you going out of your way to ensure our mutual customers are being listened to and treated with the utmost respect and fairness? What steps are you taking to provide a constructive and informed experience?
2. Self Marketing: How is your brand AND your team perceived by the general public? How are you portraying your company's core values to our mutual customers?
3. Professional Transactions: Is your communication with our team respectful and purposeful? Are we seeing benevolent or malicious intent with any B2B and B2C interactions?
4. Clear Communication: Is the purpose and intent behind your B2B and B2C interactions clearly communicated?

At the end of the day, we want to partner with like-minded brands who put their best foot forward for our mutual fans. The above criteria must be considered in each element of your business operations. We take our supporting criteria into consideration when evaluating the success of our dealers, and if they qualify for tier promotions. Your sales achievements alone may not be enough to climb the ladder in our dealer program if we feel as a team that your business isn’t meeting our supporting criteria. Violations in our supporting criteria may lead to a strike, or termination depending on the severity of the violation.

For these orders we are happy to accommodate internal invoices as our website has geolocked anything outside of the lower 48 states. If you are having any issues with an order, please contact us at sales@adro.com so we can determine the best course of action.
