Autobytel Inc. (NASDAQ:ABTLE) was named a Finalist today in the
Best Product Development Team category in the third annual American
Business Awards. Autobytel will be competing in the Best Product
Development Team category for the Automotive and Transport

and loyalty solution, Retention Performance Marketing (RPM) 2.0.
Hailed as "the business world's own Oscars" by the New York Post
(September 22, 2002), The American Business Awards are the first
national, all-encompassing business awards program honoring great
performances in the workplace. Nicknamed the Stevies(TM) for the
Greek word "crowned," winners will be announced during
presentations on Monday, June 6 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in
New York City. The ceremonies will be videocast on the Internet and
broadcast on radio. Donald J. Trump will receive the first Lifetime
Achievement Stevie Award that evening. More than 1,200 nominations
from companies of all sizes and in virtually every industry were
submitted for consideration in more than 40 categories, including
Best Overall Company, Best Executive, Best New Product or Service
and Best Support Staffer. Launched in 2004, RPM 2.0 enables auto
dealers to draw in revenue through the dealership's service
departments by implementing effective multichannel customer
outreach and retention programs. RPM automatically segments each
set of customer data based on spending, purchase and visitation
habits. As a result, customers can receive discounts and
communications relevant to their needs, such as customized service
reminders based on mileage and time parameters. RPM also offers
personalized Web pages so the dealership's customers can track and
update their own vehicle service histories. "RPM is making a
significant difference in the ways auto dealers can market to and
retain customers through their vehicle maintenance departments,"
said Autobytel President and CEO Rick Post. "RPM addresses the
specific challenges dealerships face in building customer loyalty,
and we are pleased The American Business Awards program recognizes
the wider business implications of targeted customer retention
programs." Members of the Awards' Board of Distinguished Judges
& Advisors and their staffs will select Stevie winners from
among the Finalists. Finalists were chosen by business
professionals nationwide during preliminary judging in February
through April. "We began the Stevies in 2002 with the mission to
generate recognition of deserving companies and individuals among
the business community, the press, and the general public," said
Michael Gallagher, founder and president of The Stevie Awards.
"Being selected as a Finalist is an important achievement, because
it means that independent judges have agreed that the Finalist is
worthy of national recognition." Details about The American
