In this episode, industry innovator George Fraser introduces GigMatch, a B2B subscription-based platform that 401(k) advisors can offer to plan sponsors to help participants close the retirement savings gap. By replacing 'fear-based' retirement messaging with 'hope-based' supplemental income matching, advisors can differentiate their practice, reduce financial stress, and provide a tangible roadmap for the 90% of participants who have not saved enough to retire comfortably.

George Fraser, who was named 401(k) Specialist’s first-ever “Top Advisor by Participant Outcomes” in 2017, is starting a new career chapter with the introduction of GigMatch, an innovative app designed to be a game-changer for the vast majority of Americans who deal with financial stress on a daily basis.

GigMatch, making its official debut May 1, is being unveiled on the exhibit hall floor at the NAPA 401(k) Summit in Tampa. On the podcast, Fraser explains how GigMatch, developed with his partner Tom Kmak, will provide hope to people who think they haven’t saved for retirement through individually tailored opportunities to enhance income and lifestyle—both today and in retirement.
