10 August 2010

Following an increase in the number of its advisers over the last six months, Linx FS has joined the Personal Touch Financial Services (PTFS) network. The Linx FS offering remains unique in the marketplace. Along with its Shoebox platform of more than 30 financial products, Linx FS can now provide the entire PTFS package, which includes top commission rates, exclusive products and reduced costs. The new regional network will still be known as Linx FS and will offer its members a more competitive pricing structure at a time when other networks are increasing their costs. There will be two different propositions: an Appointed Representative (AR) model and one for advisers who want to sit under the Linx FS umbrella as Registered Individuals (RI). The Linx FS quarterly regional sales conferences will continue with greater emphasis on marketing and increasing sales opportunities. Bob Hope, director at Linx FS, commented: “We are exceedingly pleased with PTFS as our choice of network partner as they mirror our core values of integrity and ‘can do’ attitude. This alliance allows Linx to grow to our planned 100 advisers and, at the same time, offer a very secure framework for our members. The feedback we have received during this transition has been exceedingly positive and we’re very grateful for the fantastic support of our members.” Dev Malle, sales and marketing director at PTFS, commented: “At PTFS we aim to attract quality organisations with robust growth strategies. It is, therefore, particularly pleasing when an organisation such as Linx FS selects us as its preferred network partner following a significant due diligence process. It’s encouraging and indeed refreshing to see an organisation with a clear strategy and infrastructure to support its adviser base and we look forward to working with Linx to allow the team to realise their strategic plans.” ENDS
