June is here, which means summertime weather, Father's Day, weddings, graduations, and National Annuity Awareness Month! It's the perfect time to educate your clients on the benefits of annuities and the guaranteed lifetime income they can provide during retirement.

The protection offered by annuities is more important than ever. Did you know… Only 27% of working Americans feel very confident about having enough money to live comfortably throughout their retirement years? Another fact is 41% of workers in America have saved less than $50,000 for retirement.*

To assist our members and agents, AIP Marketing Alliance collected the resources and created the materials you need to launch your Annuity Awareness campaign. You can leverage AIPMA's online annuity tools library, including:

• A brand new Annuity Awareness three-minute video (can be personalized with your logo)
• Fresh social media graphics (Don't forget to use the #AnnuityAwarenessMonth hashtag when you post!)
• Consumer-facing digital flyers (Client Retirement Planning Worksheet, Annuities Language Glossary)
• And more!

Are you interested in these new Annuity Awareness Month materials? Complete our form to get a link to download the available tools.

Would you like the annuity resources customized with your logo? The video and graphics can be branded with your company logo upon request. Give AIPMA's Business Development Team a call at (800) 783-5206 Press #2 or email marketing@aipma.com.

Are you keeping up with the latest carrier updates to their annuity products? Don't forget about our Wink's AnnuitySpecs tool that allows you to compare multiple annuities at one time and leverage their real-time updates. You can also screen and analyze living benefit rider guarantees with the Living Benefit Calculator. Both are available by logging into the Agent Tools section of the AIPMA website.

For annuity sales training, consider viewing the recordings of our previous presentations on our AIPMA GoToStage Channel.
