2005
(31/10/2005) On course with AXA
A Bristol-based IFA is heading off for a week long golfing holiday at the prestigious Valderrama resort in Spain after winning a free prize draw run by AXA. The prize draw, launched in May 2005, was open to IFAs who logged on to the Point of Sale system and completed a quotation for the AXA Protection Account.
Stephen Parsons of Tower House Management, part of the Sesame network, was presented with his holiday tickets by Iain Mallon, AXA Head of Protection, and Martin Olive, Sesame Key Account Director at AXA.
Speaking about the win Stephen Parsons said:
"I was really surprised when I heard that I had won. I was completing a quotation for a client and when I saw the golf promotion thought I would give it a go. The only difficulty I have now is deciding who to take with me".
Iain Mallon of AXA commented:
"We launched the free prize draw because we're so confident in our Point of Sale system that we wanted to encourage advisers to try it out and see how easy it can be to do business with us. We're really pleased that Stephen has won and hope that he has a thoroughly enjoyable holiday."
