Blacktower Wins Award for Marketing Excellence

After a year in which we reached a great many milestones for the Group, we are delighted to announce that Blacktower Financial Management are the winners of the International Adviser Best Practice Award for Marketing Excellence in Europe. 

Of the accreditation, Group Managing Director, Gavin Pluck said: 

‘Let us not forget that while many entered survival mode in 2020, 2021 has not been the return to normality for which we hoped. As a business and as people, we have dealt with the aftershocks of one of the most turbulent years our industry has faced and so to be recognised as Europe’s leader of Marketing in our industry is a recognition of which we are enormously proud. 

Our objective is simple – to add value to every person’s interaction with the brand and so Best Practice in this area is non-negotiable for us. During a time in which there is an overflow of alarming and contradictory advice available in an instant, our duty has been for 35 years and ever will be, to give sound, rational and regulatory watertight information. 

I would like to personally congratulate all those involved in achieving this award on such a fantastic accomplishment.’

Goals for 2018Well, you have probably already swept away the party poppers and Champagne corks, but now is the time to reflect on 2017 and consider the future.

It’s also, of course, the time to make New Year resolutions. For most people, such ‘resolutions’ are often ambitious, unrealistic and maybe even harmful (I mean, giving up chocolate – that’s never going to happen).

In fact, research from the University of Scranton, USA, in 2013 found that a mere 8% of people achieve their New Year goals, and a ComRes poll from November 2015 revealed that 43% of all the failed resolutions that year hadn’t even lasted a month.

It seems that the typical pledges of eating more healthily, taking up a new hobby and giving up bad habits are really not achievable and it’s becoming increasingly common for resolutions to be financially related.
