- PRO member businesses who wish to make a larger impact in the restyling market can do so simply by getting involved and making their voices heard. If you have something to share about current automotive laws, taxation, dealerships, or rules about what your business can or cannot do, simply reach out to PRO Council Director (Denise Waddingham at Deniselw@sema.org) to get the necessary guidance and assistance.
- Automotive enthusiasts and individuals can now join SEMA as an Individual Member. Learn more here about how you can defend your automotive rights when they are under attack.
- There are various task forces in which members can volunteer for PRO. There are part-time and full-time volunteer positions available, and slots available for those who only have a few minutes a month. Volunteering is a great way to help shape the industry, identify challenges and opportunities, and help develop solutions to strengthen PRO member businesses. Task force committees include communications, membership, PRO Cup Challenge and more. Reach out to Denise Waddingham at Deniselw@sema.org to get involved today.
