Happy New Year! We’re excited about 2024
At QuoteMonster we are roaring with excitement for 2024. In 2022 we ran our first roadshow in three years, launching a completely new look and feel and updated research package. In 2023 we got double the number of you coming along to our roadshow, added AI tools, more new research, business insurance research, business SOAs, and much more. As a consequence, we welcomed more than 130 new subscribers, taking the total to over 950 advisers. We also welcomed nine of you to join our research advisory board. There is a more detailed review of the year at this link: https://www.chatswood.co.nz/home/2023-at-quality-product-research-limited
For 2024 we have a long list of things we want to improve, add to, and some completely new developments. Although we know we won’t get through them all, by the middle of the year we should have a good bundle of updates to share with you.
Based on the conversations with many advisers I have had over the last few months, 2024 will be a big year for risk. Sure, there are challenges. We could do with interest rates dropping, we could do with banks and insurers working to restore resilience to the direct debit system. We can always wish for the environment to be easier. Meanwhile, our plan is to work to make the bit we look after for you, work better.
Our dedication to your success remains unwavering. We understand that your role as financial advisers is pivotal in helping your clients navigate the market for cover, work out their requirements, and get what they need – and review it all regularly. As such, we continue to enhance our service to ensure you have the best tools at your disposal. I want to mention three enhancements specifically in case you haven’t seen them.
Latest research updates, particularly in our research on medical insurance. Go grab a fresh comparison, as a package of updates was put through just before the break. Remember we update the research database two or three times every quarter. Things change.
Legacy insurance product research: check out our nice new library of legacy business research. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, let us know – we’ve added more than a product a week over the last year.
Advicemonster: If you’re looking for an extensive, robust, and flexible way to produce insurance SOAs fast, then we have you covered there too. In 2023 we added quote upload, and email fact find features so you can save time getting data into Advicemonster. Also, we added an option to get AI help you when writing the introduction to the SOA.
Plus, there are updates to the site all the time. You folks keep giving us great new ideas. But roughly half the time someone says to me ‘why don’t you…’ it turns out I can say ‘look at this link here’. So, if you want a low-key way to ease back into work, why not just have a good nose around the site?
I want to acknowledge the incredible effort and dedication of our team in 2023. Their hard work and commitment have been essential to all improvements and growth.
Lastly, and in the chief place: thank you. Thank you for your continued trust in QuoteMonster. Here’s to a prosperous and successful New Year!
