We are thrilled to celebrate a remarkable milestone in our history: Bankston Motor Homes has been honored with the prestigious Winnebago Dealer Circle of Excellence Award—not once, but twice, in 2018 and 2015! This elite recognition, reserved for the top-performing dealerships in Winnebago’s network, highlights our unwavering commitment to excellence in sales, customer service, and overall dealership operations. This award truly belongs to our outstanding team and our loyal customers—your trust, your honest feedback, and your unwavering support are what lifted us into the Circle of Excellence not just once, but twice. Thank you for making it happen!
What Makes the Circle of Excellence So Special?
Winnebago Industries has been pioneering the RV lifestyle since 1958, crafting everything from compact camper vans to luxury motorhomes in their Forest City, Iowa headquarters. Iconic models like the rugged Revel 4×4, versatile Travato, family adventurers View and Vista, and innovative Solis lineup embody Winnebago’s dedication to quality, innovation, and endless exploration. The Dealer Circle of Excellence Award stands as the pinnacle of recognition for Winnebago partners, awarded annually to just the top 10-20% of dealerships across North America—typically only 20-40 elite performers out of more than 200.
To earn induction into the Circle, dealers must excel across a balanced scorecard of objective and subjective measures, including:
- Outstanding Sales Performance: Achieving exceptional retail sales volume and market share growth.
- Superior Customer Satisfaction: Top-tier Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) scores from real buyer experiences in sales, delivery, and service.
- Operational Excellence: Impeccable facility standards, robust parts and service departments, and full staff certification through Winnebago’s rigorous training programs.
- Brand Advocacy: Demonstrating a deep alignment with Winnebago’s “Standards of Excellence,” fostering lifelong customer relationships.
Winners are celebrated at Winnebago’s Grand National Dealers’ Meeting, joining an exclusive circle of dealerships that set the benchmark for the industry. For Bankston Motor Homes, securing this honor in both 2015 and 2018 underscores our relentless pursuit of perfection and passion for delivering joy on every trip.
