Advance Auto Parts

Join us in recognizing Casey Smelser as October's Pro Partner Spotlight! Casey began with Advance as an assistant general manager and has since held the roles of general manager, district manager, and now customer sales manager. He was nominated for this recognition by his regional leaders for his instrumental role in building key partnerships in the Detroit market as well as his commitment to developing skills that ensure his growth with the company and his customers. "The thing I like the most about being a CSM is being able to touch so many people's lives," said Casey. "From investing in our team to assisting with their personal and career development to the customers we serve every day. Being able to work alongside all these great people working towards their goals, and then, most importantly, being able to watch them achieve those goals."
