The recently re-branded network arm of Mortgage Times confirmed that it would be holding a series of seminars across England and Scotland, highlighting ways for intermediaries to improve sales techniques and make use of technological enhancements within the mortgage market.
The network’s compliance department will be on hand to offer support and the forum will include seminars on regulation, client retention strategies, cross-sales techniques and boosting turnover.
Commenting on the seminars, Payam Azadi, head of marketing at Mortgage Times Group, said: “We are anticipating a successful set of forums this year, and believe the sales and technology presentations will offer fresh insight and value to visitors on the day.”
The sales and technology forums begin on 20 February in Brentwood, Essex and finish in Manchester in May.
Simon Sirman, mortgage adviser at Plan Invest, welcomed the forums on technology.
He explained: “I think guidance will be welcomed in many instances as the general age of the independent financial adviser is around the mid-50s and they will need guidance and be kept up to speed with technology developments and enhancements.
“Mortgages can tend to be a younger person’s game and they are more up to speed with things, so I am sure that this seminar programme will be welcomed.”
