The entry period is now open for ProSales’ 17th annual Excellence Awards competition, honoring achievement in construction supply.
Dealers and distributors can enter to win prizes in any of seven categories:
- Facility design
- Showroom design
- Advertising
- Marketing (which can include more than ads)
- Technology
- Education
- Safety
Grand Award winners get a trophy, a story in the November/December issue of ProSales, and $500 to give to the charity of their choice. Merit Award winners receive a certificate, $150 for charity, and an article about them.

The ProSales Excellence Awards were created to celebrate achievements in facility design, marketing, technology, and operations (see past winners). The winners will be selected by a panel of four judges:
- Robb Wilson, CEO of Wilson Lumber, Huntsville, Ala., the 2018 ProSales Dealer of the Year.
- Chris Rader, president of Rader Solutions, a technology company based in Lafayette, La.
- Scott Morrison, principal for Scott Morrison Consulting, which helps LBM dealers operate more efficiently.
- Brian McCauley, a sales trainer and writer of ProSales’ “Uncommon Value” column.
The judges are the only people who decide submissions are so notable they deserve to be shared with the rest of the lumber and building material community. The judges have wide latitude in deciding which projects deserve prizes. They can give awards to several candidates in the same category or conclude that there’s not a single contestant in a particular category that should get anything. It’s their call.
