In what is believed to be the first UK lender podcast, the Accord Growth Series will feature interviews and advice from experts across a range of fields aimed at supporting mortgage intermediaries.
The first episode focuses on the potential benefits of social media, with contributions from Chris Schutrups, Managing Director at the Mortgage Hut, and Richard Bassinder, Social Media Manager at Accord Mortgages.
Chris details how his business’s following on the likes of Facebook and Twitter has been a major factor in taking his business from a start-up in a bedroom into a multi-million pound operation.
Episodes of the fortnightly series are available for free from iTunes, Spotify and other podcast platforms, as well as the Accord website.
Jeremy Duncombe, Head of Intermediary Distribution at Accord Mortgages, said:
“As well as wanting great service and products from their lender, we know brokers are hungry for support in how to take their business to the next level.
“Our Accord Growth Series has so far featured a range of business development guidance and tools for subscribers and the podcast is a natural extension.
“There has been an explosion in podcasts over the past few years and listener levels are continuing to grow significantly. We hope brokers will be able to find real value in a high quality production which is tailored specifically to their world, whether they’ll be listening between client appointments or in their free time.”
