This week, @BlueshiftLabs announced their #OmniesAward winners and @CarPartscom won the award for “Marketing with AI”. I’m proud of our team who continues to create personalized, and memorable, experiences for customers. https://t.co/qEP7hT4xLe #TeamDriven

This excerpt from @NeilHoyne’s new book #Converted caught my attention, given the overwhelming number of options that customers have today. How do you combat the paradox of choice with customers? #DrivingForward

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

My team is always on the lookout for our next great idea, and I believe it’s important to create the space for those ideas to happen. How do you and your team like to brainstorm? Everyone’s process looks different—I want to know what yours looks like. #Innovation #TeamDRIVEN

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

The team @CarPartscom has done it again! With 9 consecutive quarters of sales growth, I continue to be amazed and grateful for what we've built in such a short amount of time. This milestone is just one more reason why I'm excited for the road ahead. #DrivingForward #TeamDRIVEN

[CarParts.com News @CarPartscomNews]

We're excited to announce @CarPartscom's 2022 results for the first quarter ended April 2nd. With record quarterly sales of $166.1M (up 15%) and record adjusted EBITDA of $9.4M (up 165%), these results mark our 9th consecutive quarter of year-over-year sales growth.

I’ve been lucky to work alongside such incredible brand partners over the years and @CarPartscom’s partners are certainly no exception. What do you look for in potential brand partners?

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

Our @CarPartscom team has been fortunate enough to watch the Naperville North High auto tech program grow, and last week all their projects won big at Chicago #WorldOfWheels. This included a 1st Place win for the Chevy S-10 race truck built by the Girls Autosport Club!

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

Congratulations @DavidMeniane and #RyanLockwood on your promotions to CEO and CFO of @CarPartscom and many thanks to @LevPeker for 3 years of growth! I can’t think of two more capable individuals to take the helm and I look forward to our next chapter as a team. #ToTheMoon🚀

[CarParts.com News @CarPartscomNews]

We’re pleased to announce the promotion of @DavidMeniane to CEO and #RyanLockwood to CFO. Last year was our most successful to date, now David & Ryan will set the stage for even more growth. We strive to get customers back on the road and today our mission is as strong as ever!

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

Our @CarPartscom x @DonutMedia partnership marked a huge milestone yesterday, with the premiere of #FreeRide debuting as the #16 trending video on @YouTube. Case in point: Partnering with the best creators in the industry matters! Take a look here: https://t.co/bz314WOmOU

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

With gas prices on the rise, @CarPartscom's Chief Mechanic, Mia Bevacqua, lent her expertise to the @LATimes for tips on taking care of your car and saving fuel. Is there anything you’re doing to save on gas lately?

I'm proud of our team for making car ownership even easier with @CarPartscom's new #LifetimeReplacementGuarantee, allowing customers to ship back their purchase for a refund when it comes time to replace. #DrivingForward

@PFLMMA is searching for the next great professional fighter with its new Challenger Series, and our team is coming out swinging once again as a partner! Tune in tonight on @fuboTV at 9:00pm ET / 6:00pm PT and look out for @CarPartscom in and out of the cage.

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

Our team is excited to partner with @DonutMedia on their new show, #DIYOrDont! @CarPartscom and DIY auto repair go hand-in-hand, which is why we had to get on board. Check it out on their channel: https://t.co/s2lSmjl496

I'm incredibly proud to be a part of this amazing group of people -- working alongside them as we all get after it, day in and day out, continues to inspire me. This is just the beginning of greater things to come! #UnfinishedBusiness #DrivingForward

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

Today marks three years since I came back to the company I've loved so dearly, @CarPartscom. Coming back to where I was able to take monumental steps in establishing my career, becoming the best version of myself and finishing what I started, has been nothing short of surreal.

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

At @CarPartscom, we’re proud to support the @EverydayDriver podcast and TV show. The new Bronco and Jeep featured on their recent episode were both impressive--I’m looking forward to watching more of their adventures this year! https://t.co/iFA8Fis01p

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

I’m excited for our new partnership with @TheSmokingTire. With one of the biggest names in the auto enthusiast space, their passion is evident in everything they create. Listen up for @CarPartscom on their recent episode with @HarrisMonkey of @BBC_TopGear. https://t.co/gwZRTXp4a8

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

Since then, I’ve kept three takeaways in mind: (1) Don’t oversteer when needing to maneuver, (2) keep a safe following distance of at least 3-6 seconds so you have time to react, and (3) take extra caution when driving in rainy conditions. #DrivingSafetyTips 3/3

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

Have you had a car you’ve been extremely grateful for that kept you safe on the road? Mine was a 1991 Honda Accord. 🧵/3

[Houman Akhavan @houmanakhavan]

In 1999, it was raining on the 210 Freeway and there was a Corvette in the carpool lane on its way to the racetrack in Pomona. The driver suddenly lost control, hydroplaning across all lanes, and I had to quickly maneuver to avoid hitting them head-on. 2/3
