LIMRA and LOMA Partner with Mindset Digital to Offer Digital Media Courses to Industry Professionals Around the World

WINDSOR, Conn., Aug. 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- LIMRA and LOMA have partnered with digital media training firm Mindset Digital to launch today a new series of online courses in LinkedIn, Twitter, and mobile marketing for their nearly-1,200 member companies worldwide.

The average attention span today is just eight seconds*, noted Mindset Digital CEO Debra Jasper. "So it's important that companies have access to the kind of highly visual, interactive training that will help them capture attention of consumers and other stakeholders."

Mindset Digital is the exclusive digital training partner of both LIMRA and LOMA, and together they will be offering a co-branded curriculum called Digital Marketing U.  Each of the six courses in the curriculum contains a series of 15-minute modules that can be viewed anytime, 24/7. The highly visual and easy-to-understand courses cover how to:

• Use LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook to reach and engage your audience
• Increase brand visibility and thought leadership through content marketing and search engine optimization
• Launch effective digital advertising and mobile marketing campaigns
• Adopt social selling and reputation building strategies
• Enhance the customer service experience

"Our members are no longer asking if they should adopt the latest digital approaches — they are asking how they can," said Kathy Milligan, LOMA senior vice president of education and training. "hat's why we partnered with Mindset Digital. Their best-in-class training courses lead to action."

According to LIMRA research, 7 in 10 young advisors are using social media; yet more than two thirds believe they need more support.   Today, just 60 percent of companies have social media programs to support their financial professionals.

Together, LIMRA, LOMA and Mindset Digital are committed to being the trusted source of knowledge and training within the digital media space.  In addition to offering online courses, Mindset Digital founders and international keynote speakers, Debra Jasper and Betsy Hubbard will be featured speakers at the 2015 LIMRA LOMA Social Media Conference which begins today in San Francisco and LIMRA's Annual Conference in Boston in October.
