METTAWA, Ill., December 11, 2017 - Brunswick Corporation's (NYSE: BC) dealer services team, Brunswick Dealer Advantage (BDA) announced today that it has partnered with DockMaster to offer exclusive discounts on DockMaster and MyTaskit products to their marine dealers in the United States and Canada. Launched in 2007, Brunswick Dealer Advantage is celebrating its 10-year anniversary and DockMaster and MyTaskit are two of several new programs being launched in honor of this milestone.
"Brunswick Dealer Advantage is committed to offering Brunswick dealers with more options to strengthen their businesses and increase their profits," said Kirsten Schuchardt, program manager for Brunswick Dealer Advantage. "By partnering with DockMaster and MyTaskit, our dealers now have access to two more industry-leading comprehensive and integrative dealer management systems, and for much less."
DockMaster pioneered the Marine Management Software industry, deploying the first marine management solution in 1983. Today, DockMaster continues to meet the demanding needs of marine dealerships and marinas with scalable full-business management solutions. DockMaster software offerings include accounts payable, accounts receivable, general ledger, haul and launch management, parts inventory, prospect management, service and work orders, boat sales with F&I, order entry, point-of-sale, reservations, slip and rack management, and so much more. In addition, DockMaster partners with over 16 best-in-class web-based and mobile apps to provide CRM, dealer website integrations and EMV credit card processing, among others.
"We are excited to partner with Brunswick Dealer Advantage to provide their extensive dealer network with exclusive pricing on our DockMaster and MyTaskit products," said Cam Collins, president of DockMaster.
