WIX Filters has been an industry leader since 1939, and automotive enthusiasts — DIYers and DIFMers alike — have long relied on its filtration products. WIX Filters sought to cultivate a deeper connection with those customers and become a more trusted resource for its trade partners by employing a new, consultative approach. WIX Filters shared automotive industry trends and new product growth areas to provide its trade partners with new sales opportunities and revenue streams.
