NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Pacific Life was presented with a silver Stevie Award in the “Small
Budget Marketing Campaign of the Year” category at the 2012 American
Business Awards.
The American Business Awards are the nation’s premier business awards
program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to
submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit,
large and small.
Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word for “crowned,” the trophies
were presented to honorees during a gala banquet on Monday, June 18 at
the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York. More than 500 nominees and their
guests attended. The presentations were broadcast live by the Business
TalkRadio Network.
Pacific Life was honored for its “Helping Clients Put the ‘I’ Back in
Income” campaign, which introduced Pacific Income Provider®,
a single-premium immediate fixed annuity. In May of this year, Pacific
Income Provider was the #1 recommended “immediate lifetime annuity with
return of principal” according to Barron’s on May 28, 2012.
The campaign, which is aimed at financial professionals, focuses on how
to engage clients in a retirement income planning conversation by taking
a personalized approach—one that zeros in on each client’s unique vision
of what they want retirement to be. The campaign also highlighted the
importance of guaranteed income in building lifetime retirement security
and the role of Pacific Life’s consultative wholesalers in helping
financial professionals create a personalized client experience.
“We’re extremely pleased to be among this year’s Stevie Award winners,”
says Christine Tucker, Pacific Life's vice president of marketing,
Retirement Solutions Division. “As an organization dedicated to helping
financial professionals build their businesses and help their clients
create a financially secure retirement, Pacific Life has been thrilled
with the response to our campaign. The attention it has brought to
guaranteed income products is helping thousands of financial
professionals open up a much-needed conversation about retirement income
planning.”
