Boost Your Visibility with the Connect Expert Directory
A key advantage of joining the Connect Mortgage Network is the Connect Expert Directory. This unique broker directory is designed to help clients find the right adviser quickly and confidently. It supports advisers who want stronger visibility, better lead opportunities, and a professional platform that showcases their strengths.
The Expert Directory allows clients to search for advisers by location, product expertise, language, and gender. This makes it easier for them to connect with a broker who understands their situation and can deliver the right advice. It also supports better quality conversations because enquiries are matched with advisers who specialise in the area the client needs.
As an adviser, the directory enhances your online presence, fosters trust, and establishes you as a specialist within your chosen market. It also forms part of our wider network support, which includes training, compliance guidance, and a broad lender panel. You can learn more about how our network helps advisers grow by visiting our Join Our Network page at connectbrokers.co.uk/join-our-network.
