Hello, and welcome to Episode Two, Searching for Elephants, The LifeSearch podcast coming atcha. We've invited Tom and Roy back because, well, there's a lot to say about income protection. And between you and me, Tom and Roy don't normally agree with each other for all that long. So we've asked these two elephants to come back and trumpet at each other, one more time.

MPAF77 – Roy McLoughlin on Pensions Auto Enrolment Challenges, Opportunities and Collaborations Seen as the best way to overcome “savings inertia”, Auto Enrolment is the biggest shake up of pensions in a generation. It’s a huge opportunity for financial planners but also represents adminstration challenges. In this episode I talk to Roy Mcloughlin about maximising the opportunities, over coming the challenges and looking for ways to collaborate with other financial services professionals. That's all right here in Episode 77 of the Marketing Protection and Finance Podcast. Who is Roy McLoughlin? Welcome folks to another episode of the MPAF Podcast. Wherever you are in the world, and whatever you’re doing whilst listening to this, running, walking, dog walking, cooking, cleaning or chilling, thanks so much for giving me and my guests some of your time. I really appreciate it. I was delighted by the feedback on last week’s episode where John Cordray talked about building a personal brand using live video. Even though the MPAF Podcast is mainly for Financial Services Professionals in the UK, last week’s was generic enough to attract new listeners from other industries and countries.

The main focus of the podcast is on what we can do to make protection and finance more accessible to the consumer and how financial services professionals can develop and promote their businesses. We’ll look at financial services products, interesting business models and campaigns with an emphasis on the following: Marketing – talking about how financial services professionals can develop and promote their businesses using traditional marketing tools but focussing on modern content marketing and social media techniques. Protection – talking about life insurance, critical illness, income protection and other protection products Finance – talking about pensions, platforms, savings and investments My aim is to make sure that you will get one or two big business ideas that you can apply to your own business.  Whether it is a sales idea, advice idea, product tweak or simply an app that is worth looking at.
