The Right DA Club has launched a protection helpdesk for its member firms.
The desk has no additional cost and will be led by national account manager Gary Harrison who joined earlier this month.
It is open to all members who are already offering protection or are seeking support to launch and grow in this area.
The distributor said the helpdesk aimed to help firms achieve more from their protection advice proposition and comes with several specific aims.
These include increasing advisers’ protection knowledge; cutting down on the time required to research the market; helping place more complex cases, and improving awareness across all product availability.
“There are numerous reasons why advisory firms should be active in the protection space, not least the requirements that clients have in this current economic environment for cover, but also what it can deliver in terms of regular income, and how it can significantly add to the bottom line,” Harrison (pictured) said.
“The launch of the new helpdesk is designed to deal with all protection queries DA Club members might have, whether it’s information on suitable products for more complex cases, or it’s a time-sensitive case which requires quick action, through to ideas on how to improve protection cut-through and conversions in the business.”
