Event to be Held Online November 7th – 11th, 2016

Denver, CO., Nov 11, 2016, 2016 – The world’s first virtual summit for financial professionals, retirement planners and life insurance advisors will be held online from November 7-11, 2016.
Because the summit is virtual, participants can attend from the comfort of their own homes or offices without added travel, lodging, or scheduling concerns—all that’s required is a device with an internet connection.
For a limited time, free tickets are being offered via the summit website. The tickets, valued at $1,997, will give participants a once in a lifetime opportunity to attend masterclasses with some of the world’s best advisors, coaches and thought leaders as they share their secrets for building a better business and a bigger life.
Cutting Edge Thought Leadership
“With so many new opportunities coming out to help financial advisors, retirement planners, and life insurance agents, we want to bring the leading and most cutting edge thought leadership from the front lines that are working today all in one place,” said Jeremiah Desmarais, executive producer of the event.
Over the course of 6 days, participants will have access to over 40 lectures and interviews with dynamic speakers such as baseball hall of famer and best-selling author Dave Winfield, Bob Burg of the international best-selling book “Go-Giver”, Former Editor of Mashable and Forbes’ Top 30 Under 30 Ben Parr, and many more.
Topics will range from thinking strategically about growth, to becoming an authority in the industry, to generating quality leads and closing more sales. “This is not going to be a pitch fest aimed at getting participants to buy into various programs,” Desmarais stresses, “it’s a real learning opportunity with the best advisors and business coaches in the world which advisors can enjoy from their laptop, smart phone or tablet.”
Desmarais is an industry leader who has won more than 23 awards and recognitions and helped over 100,000 insurance and financial advisors in 51 countries generate over 2 million leads leading to over $300 million in commissions. He is co-hosting the Summit with Brian Appleton, creator of the Insurance Agent Summit and co-author of the best-selling Customer Service is Just Foreplay: The Modern Customer Experience Will Separate You Apart from Your Competition. The two have used their expertise to vet the best and brightest in the financial advising, retirement planning, and insurance industries and bring them together in one place.
