March musings...

Another busy month for Panacea. At the beginning of March we initiated a PR strategy and commenced work with LangCat PR to raise the profile of Panacea amongst the industry press.
We have seen some interesting developments around Social Media in March.
On LinkedIn I now rank number 3 (in the top 2% for profile views) among professionals within our industry peer group.
Additionally on the social media front, in March LifeTalk has established their social media Top 100 leaderboards. One of the categories is “Providers & Suppliers To IFAs/Advisers” – of which we have entered inin 33rd position!
Speaking of leaderboards, we were delighted to find out that we have been shortlisted for a Money Marketing Awards 2016 for Best Support Service. This is the third year in a row we have been shortlisted so hopefully it’s third time lucky for us! We are up against Simply Biz and True Potential.
On 1st April we ran a Bento for One with John Joe McGinley entitled ‘What choices will you make to invest in your future’ – it’s well worth a listen! Click here to find out more and listen to the webcast.
We have set up a new area under Business Development for templates and have added ‘Where will your future success come from” template’ for advisers to use themselves, this supports the Bento for One. If you have any templates you would also want adding to this area let Sarah know.
The site stats issue from last month is now resolved. As you are aware we now have a completely new site with very different, much improved functionality. Because of this we will not be looking at comparing against previous years as this would be no longer comparable on a like for like basis.
As 2016 continues to unfold, we are delighted to welcome AXA Wealth to the community and we would say thank you to Just Retirement for renewing their relationships.
And finally, we offer our congratulations to Rathbones who win our ‘Solus of the Month’ for March award with their mailing ‘If you leave me now, looks at dispelling the 'myths' surrounding Brexit’.
