Over the last few months, we’ve certainly learnt just how unpredictable the future can be. During a global pandemic, the value of protection cover has never been greater.
But, it’s not just your clients that need your support. In the current climate, it’s important that you consider taking steps to future-proof your business ― and bringing protection into your business model is one way of doing that. During times of uncertainty, another income stream could be just what you need.
The good news
You probably already have clients who need business protection, for example company owners and business directors. And while clients might be aware of the need to protect their business, they’ll need advice to identify the right solutions.
Using its wealth of experience in the business protection market, Aegon will be running a series of business protection webinars over the next four weeks.
Each session is 45 minutes long and is designed to give you information, tools and support to help you navigate the business protection market.
You’ll also have the opportunity to earn CPD points by completing the CPD test after each event.
