Why Join the Atlanta BDG? The Member Benefits

Local Marketing Powerhouse

National ads are great, but local car owners look for repair shops in their own backyard. We pool resources to fund aggressive, targeted marketing campaigns across metro Atlanta.


  • Co-Op Advertising Dollars: Put your marketing budget further with group-funded digital, radio, and community campaigns.
  • Exclusive Local Promotions: Participate in high-converting NAPA consumer rebates and seasonal promotions that drive traffic directly to your bays.
  • Enhanced Digital Presence: Get premium placement on the NAPA Auto Care locator, making it effortless for local drivers to find your shop.


World-Class Technical & Business Training

Vehicle technology is changing faster than ever. We ensure your technicians and service advisors are always ahead of the curve.


  • NAPA Autotech Training: Live, local, and virtual training classes covering advanced diagnostics, EV/hybrid systems, and modern mechanical repair.
  • Management & Service Advisor Seminars: Sharpen your shop's operations with expert-led training on maximizing labor rates, improving parts margins, and mastering service advisor sales techniques.


Peer-to-Peer Networking & Collaboration

The best advice often comes from someone who has already solved the problem you're facing.


  • Quarterly Meetings: Gather with fellow Atlanta shop owners to discuss local market trends, share operational strategies, and talk shop in a non-competitive environment.
  • Shared Wisdom: Tap into a trusted network for operational advice, hiring tips, and local vendor recommendations.


The Best Warranty in the Business

Instantly build trust with cautious consumers by offering the NAPA Auto Care Peace of Mind® Warranty.


  • 36-Month/36,000-Mile Protection: Your work is covered nationwide, giving your customers ultimate confidence.
  • Fully Funded by NAPA: If a customer has a warranty issue away from home, NAPA handles the cost — not your shop.
