401k Rekon Introduces Seminar Sponsor Rewards Program
WILMINGTON, NC, December 22, 2010 -- 401k Rekon today announces its Rekon Rewards and Partnership Program for sponsors of its series of financial advisor seminars. In addition to the affordable, exceptional exposure sponsors get at seminars to the successful financial advisors they serve, the new rewards program offers additional benefits for referring other providers to the sponsor opportunity.
Major 401k providers already recognize the value in the 401k Rekon seminars as shown by the steadily growing number who become sponsors. These local, small-venue opportunities give providers a unique opportunity to meet, greet and educate successful financial advisors about new and exciting products and services for growing and managing their 401k businesses. Starting in summer 2010, the series grew in less than six months from one event each month to six each month. The 2011 schedule so far includes 85 local events.
"That phenomenal growth is the result of advisors telling other advisors to attend, and sponsors telling other sponsors to participate," said Ross Marino, Rekon 401k CEO. "Our sponsors are our partners, and we've developed this 401kRekon Rewards program as a way of formally thanking them."
Details of the 401kRekon Rewards Program:
- Refer a new corporate sponsor (Silver package or better) and receive one free presenting sponsorship (some events may already be filled, sponsorship dates, locations and slots subject to approval by 401k Rekon). Or receive two non-presenting sponsorships.
- Refer a new individual sponsor (one-time event sponsor) and receive one presenting sponsorship for $750. Or receive one free non-presenting sponsorship.
- Affiliates can participate in the Rewards program. They receive a 5% fee for referring parties who are not sponsors.
- All sponsorship rewards are in addition to any package.
"The support of our partners and clients have brought 401kRekon from a virtual unknown to a company that's on pace to host over 3,000 financial advisors at 80+ events in 2011," said Mr. Marino. "That's more advisors than all major national 401kconferences combined."
"Partnerships are what make the 401k industry a team sport," he said. "We're happy to help advisors and providers easily work together for the benefit of their mutual clients. On the local level our success is unlike anything our industry has seen. We are redefining the way the financial advisors work with and leverage the resources of providers. Our industry recognized this, and as a result, we have gone viral. Many symposium attendees are invited by other attendees, and many sponsors are referred to us by previous sponsors."
