New additions to the Broker Network sales force have assisted in seven new Associates committing to join the Network on 01 August 2009. This brings the total number of Associates in the Network to 53, with 165 Members making up the 218 entire Membership.
The seven new Associates join Broker Network following confirmation of a new three year deal with Aviva.
Scott Bennett, Head of Sales commented today:
“The recruitment of seven Associates this month is a reflection of our healthy pipelines and appointment activity. It’s fair to say that we are seeing an increased demand for quality network services, particularly in light of the reluctance of some insurers to commit to some of the alternative propositions currently available to brokers.”
