Sponsor Benefits

Group Sponsorship is a no-cost, value-added service that enables organizations in the financial services industry to give a discount code to their affiliated advisors. The aim of sponsorship is to promote ethical business practices in the industry. This creates a win - win - win for everyone involved, including sponsors, advisors, and most importantly, consumers who can do business with confidence.

Here are some of the ways that Financial Marketing Organizations may benefit from Group Sponsorship.

GROUP DISCOUNTS
Sponsors may pass along a $55 DISCOUNT off new membership fees. Here’s how it works:

• NEB issues a unique code to Sponsor; (example: “XYZBROKERAGE”)
• Sponsor passes along their Sponsor Code to their affiliated advisors;
• Advisors use Sponsor Code when applying for membership and automatically receives discount.

RECRUITING TOOLS
Discounted Memberships can also be used as an effective recruiting tool. Sponsors may choose to pass along their Sponsor Code in exchange for completed contracting paperwork as an incentive for new agents/brokers to contract.

This is a simple, no-cost way to give a valuable gift incentive to newly contracted agents/brokers.

GIFT MEMBERSHIPS
Sponsors may give GIFT MEMBERSHIPS to selected agents/brokers as a recruitment incentive or as a gift of appreciation at a special discounted rate to Sponsor. Here’s how it works:

• Sponsor pre-pays for memberships at the discounted rate
• NEB issues gift certificates to Sponsor; (hard copies or e-certificates)
• Sponsor forwards gift certificates to selected agents/brokers.

PRODUCTION INCENTIVES
Sponsors may reward selected advisors by offering a REIMBURSEMENT of their membership fees when they meet a pre-set production requirement. (To be determined by Sponsor)
