MassMutual Retirement Services Launches New Intermediary Website
Site Designed to Give Retirement Plan Advisors "The Edge"
SPRINGFIELD, Mass., March 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- To help advisors maximize the value of their practice and manage their book of business, MassMutual's Retirement Services Division has completely rebuilt its intermediary website, http://www.massmutual.com/edge.
Based on extensive testing with active retirement plan advisors, the design of the new MassMutual Edge site features:
-- Book of business data and analytics, as well as full compensation
reporting
-- Streamlined navigation and an enhanced look and feel
-- Industry insight and value-added intellectual capital such as webcasts,
whitepapers, sales collateral and interactive demonstrations
-- Customizable tools designed to help advisors develop their own brand and
tailor their message.
"MassMutual Retirement Services firmly believes in the value of retirement plan advisors and is dedicated to helping them better serve their clients and grow their businesses," says Hugh O'Toole, senior vice president of sales and client management for MassMutual's Retirement Services Division. "The Edge has truly been rebuilt from the ground up to give retirement plan advisors a more relevant online experience and to help them more effectively manage their business with MassMutual Retirement Services. On average, busy advisors spend five hours per day online, so we engaged active advisors throughout the redesign process to ensure that the time spent on The Edge site is both rewarding and productive," adds O'Toole.
"We remain fully committed to providing the advisor community with a world-class experience and helping them succeed in their practices," says E. Heather Smiley, senior vice president and chief marketing officer for MassMutual's Retirement Services Division. "The online customer experience is constantly evolving, and MassMutual Retirement Services will continue to innovate to ensure we are bringing the best of the web to our customers. The division recently earned the #1 overall satisfaction rating from retirement plan advisors in Boston Research Group's 2011 Defined Contribution Plan (DCP) Retirement Advisor Satisfaction and Loyalty Study, and this investment is another way we show our commitment to the advisor community," adds Smiley.
