			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ready-2-Retire is a cutting edge, iPad ready, application that bridges the communication gap between clients and their advisors.  Ready-2-Retire “jump starts” the retirement planning process by clearly identifying the financial risks and challenges facing retirees and pre-retirees as they plan for their financial future.</p>
<p>Corporate clients can now easily create Ready-2-Retire Usage Reports.  These psychographic, consumer-focused reports add a new dynamic to the application.   Usage Reports open conduits into consumer interests, activities, values, attitudes and concerns.   These reports allow users to do “living research” into their Ready-2-Retire client database and get insightful answers.</p>
<p>Similar psychographic Usage Reports will be made available to individual users later this year.</p>
<p>Impact and LIMRA developed Ready-2-Retire for both corporate clients and individual producers.  Producers can sign up for Ready-2-Retire by clicking on this link: <a href="https://sites.fastspring.com/impacttech/instant/Ready-2-Retire" target="_top">Order now!</a></p>
<p>For more information about the new Usage Reports, contact Don Iacovazzi, Product Sales Director at LIMRA.  Contact Don at 860-298-3943 or email Don at <a href="mailto:diacovazzi@limra.com">diacovazzi@limra.com</a>.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The Ready-2-Retire application is really a “Tool for Self Discovery”...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><iframe width="474" height="270" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Xm_H8vQbslM?rel=0&amp;hd=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Impact and LIMRA are excited to announce a new application, Ready-2-Retire, for the Retirement Income planning market.  LIMRA provided the research and content for Ready-2-Retire and Impact provided the creative user interface design, development and technical programming.</p>
<p>This interactive tool provides a new way to look at preparing for retirement.  LIMRA research studies show that pre-retirees do not give sufficient thought to decisions affecting their future.  Questions about when, where and how to retire, require serious consideration.  Pre-retirees often underestimate the challenges and risks that threaten their future quality of life.  The Ready-2-Retire application offers consumers a “Vehicle for Self-Discovery”.  It helps them visualize dreams about their next phase of life.</p>
<p>Ready-2-Retire will engage, educate and prepare the next generation of retirees to take action.  It is an excellent lead-generation platform for companies and advisors.</p>
<p>Ready-2-Retire works with web browsers and is iPad ready.</p>
<p>Impact and LIMRA are marketing Ready-2-Retire to both corporate clients and to individual producers. Producers can sign up for Ready-2-Retire by clicking on this link: <a href="https://sites.fastspring.com/impacttech/instant/Ready-2-Retire" target="_top">Order now!</a></p>
<p>Corporate clients who would like to see how Ready-2-Retire can help your business prosper in the Retirement Income space, should contact Paul Henry.  Paul can be reached by phone at 1-860-285-7878 or by email at <a></a><a href="mailto:phenry@limra.com">phenry@limra.com</a>.</p>
