Canada Life Group Insurance is offering advisers the chance to win one of a handful of gadgets via a prize draw.

The competition is designed to encourage usage of its e-business portal, CL@SS, which currently handles over 60% of all new small business schemes (under 50 lives) that Canada Life insures and the company is looking to grow this to 70% by the end of the year.

The e-business portal allows advisers to generate instant quotes and provide clients with cover in 30 minutes for Group Income Protection, Group Life Assurance and Group Critical Illness. Three year rate guarantees are also part of the CL@SS offering.

All advisers who produce a quote online before 30 September will automatically be entered into the draw to win one of five gadgets: a 3D Blu-Ray DVD Player, a Kindle Touch, an iPod Nano, a FLIP Video Ultra camcorder or a Fujifilm FinePix Digital camera.

“With so much change in the market at the moment, it is very easy for advisers to focus on preparing for this and put aside developing other areas of their business,” said Paul Avis, sales and marketing director at Canada Life Group Insurance.

“However, providing access to group protection products to companies with fewer than 50 employees can be a simple and relatively profitable income stream – if administration is kept to a minimum.

“Therefore, we are introducing this prize draw to encourage advisers to try CL@SS and in doing so, not only improve the service they provide their clients but also make the administration of these schemes easier.”
