November Update

    Time flies when you’re having fun! It’s hard to believe, but somehow we’re less than 60 days from the end of 2024! As we wrap up the year, let’s make the most of our Oasys programs and maximize every VR. If you’re not actively working with our vendor partners, it impacts both you and our entire membership. Remember, we’re stronger when everyone participates in our vendor programs – and more on that shortly. 

    Before we dive into the meat of this newsletter, I wanted to give an enormous shoutout to each of you that participated in the 2024 Oasys Member Survey. A follow up to a similar survey conducted in 2021, we saw participation in the initiative triple! We’re looking forward to diving into the data and sharing out our findings with you in the near future. But, seriously, your feedback will help drive this group forward in more ways than you can imagine – so, THANK YOU, again.

    And, related to the survey, as promised, we wanted to update you on the winner of the free travel to the 2025 Oasys Summit in Indy. Congrats go out to Sean Eckler of Installations Unlimited in North Syracuse, NY. The Oasys team will be in touch to gather more info and help you get your free travel to Indy!

    Now… Back to the program updates: 

    • There’s a new Snap trade-in/trade-up program for networking and surveillance gear. This is a group-exclusive program, and the Snap One team has created some assets for you to use to market the promo to your clients, as well as all the T’s and C’s of the program. Visit the Snap One page or the Oasys Community page on MemberNet for full details.
    • New EERO 5 percent DFI program – If you’re direct with Eero, buying from Amazon For Business, now through the end of the year, you’ll receive an ADDITIONAL 5 percent DFI on ALL Eero products. This is in addition to the quarterly VR you receive on our program. Again, this is ONLY if you’re buying directly from Amazon For Business accounts.
    • The eXchange VR promo is BACK from November 3rd through January 4, 2025! The details are posted to MemberNet and the eXchange page.
    • Samsung Oasys program – This is a reminder that you get a group-exclusive 2 percent VR on Samsung purchases. This is a big benefit for the group, especially as we approach the last few months of the year.
    • LG Pinnacle Program – As a group, our LG sales continue to grow, month over month and year over year. GOOD WORK to everyone here. As you may know, there was a minimum requirement to participate in the LG Pinnacle program in 2024. There are a few members that are very close to hitting that minimum.  If you’re not sure where you’re at with LG sales, just let us know, and we’ll get the most current sales information we can for you. As we close out 2024, don’t miss out on your opportunity to earn some extra VR $!

    General Oasys Housekeeping items: 

    • Registration for the 2025 Oasys Summit, May 7-9, in Indianapolis is OPEN. The first 50 dealers to register will receive a discounted room rate of $100/night! Our Oasys negotiated room rate this year is $259. There’s LOTS of new and exciting things we’re adding to the agenda this year, including a field trip or two! Click here to register: 2025 Oasys Summit.
    • Oasys Referral Program – In the coming weeks, we’ll be sending out communication about our Oasys referral program. It’s pretty simple and a great way to be involved in the group’s growth. If you know someone who should be in Oasys and would benefit from our programs, services, our summit and the community we’re building, submit their info through this form. When they join the group, we’ll send YOU a $500 American Express gift card!
    • Slack is up and running for the Oasys members! If you haven’t received your invite to the Oasys Slack community, please contact us ASAP. We’ll be adding vendors to the community later this month.
    • On January 1st, Oasys will launch the Oasys Academy, which will include education tracks from some of our vendors and service providers. Additionally, the updated CEDIA Academy will live inside the Oasys Academy. Keep an eye out for the link to our site before the end of the year.

     As always, if you have any questions, need support in some area of your business or just want to bounce some ideas off of us, please do not hesitate to reach out! We’re here for you.
