How we do it

Central to our growth is our lead generation programme and our customer enquiries are either generated from our own websites, via our introducer partnerships or from favourable recommendations from our existing customers.

We don’t buy in leads from third parties. As such we are a self-sufficient business where customers approach us and so the leads we provide to our advisers are of a higher quality, thus enhancing the conversion rate of lead to sale.

We have also invested in centralised administration and compliance, embracing technology to deliver a prompt and reliable service to clients. This includes the only case tracking facility in the equity release broker space, where clients can login online to access application updates and documentation. This streamline process has gained the company an enviable 99% customer satisfaction feefo review record from our customers.

We also enjoy an excellent compliance record, which has been verified following audits from Legal & General, KPMG, LV= and Canada Life. In addition, we have invested in external compliance support to ensure that we remain aware of our regulatory obligations & assesses our compliance function on an ongoing basis along with GDPR compliance.

Moreover, we have controlled fixed costs to ensure that we remain profitable in the event of fluctuating markets and are able to expand without significant investment. Sales and financial performance are reviewed monthly and we now have our strategic team in place to formally review progress and drive future growth across key areas such as compliance, administration, sales/marketing and IT.
