Nominations open for BDM of the Year
Nominations are now open for the Money Management/Tribeca Business Development Manager (BDM) of the Year awards.
To nominate the BDM you think worthy of winning this award, go to http://www.moneymanagement.com.au. Nominations close on December 1, 2006.
Nominations will be reduced to a final list of 24, at which point financial planners will be invited to vote on the BDM they consider most worthy of the title BDM of the Year.
Voting will consist of scoring the BDM’s technical skill, product knowledge, practice development and adviser relations. The final number of votes received for each candidate will then be tallied and their aggregate score calculated. A panel of judges will then vote on the list of finalists.
Seven awards are on offer, including the overall prestigious award of BDM of the Year, five separate state awards and Boutique BDM of the Year.
The winners will be announced at a formal presentation on February 20, 2007.
For more information, phone Jayson Forrest on (02) 9422 2906 or Sara Rich on (02) 9422 8616.
