What Is Working:
- Consistent content especially using platforms like LinkedIn (professional audience), YouTube (depth + personality) and Facebook (often many planners and bankers target audience).
- Educational content that builds trust, offers an outlet for “free” education and credibility – rather than just selling.
- Combining digital + physical/hybrid tactics (e.g. no-cost meetings, seminars, webinars & events) tends to yield better conversion than digital alone.
- Being “digitally empowered” (i.e. good tech stack, client-facing tools, digital touchpoints) helps firms grow faster.
What's Not:
- Time lag: It often takes many months (or more) before content builds enough trust to convert into new client relationships. The “long game” is real.
- Compliance & regulation: Many advisors are constrained by firm policies (what they can post, how testimonials are used, google reviews, etc.), which limits what strategies are lucrative.
- Audience demographics: Younger potential clients may rely more on social media/finfluencers for financial info, but converting them to paying advisory relationships takes work.
How We Create Momentum With Your Social Media Management
1
Define what success looks like: new leads, client acquisition, newsletter sign-ups, or app downloads. Every element should support that single objective.
2
Segment by age, tax bracket, life stage, goals, and pain points. Speak directly to them in language they understand.
3
People want to know their goals are possible and you can lead them. Show benefits, not just features.
4
Successful ads tell a micro-story your audience can relate to in 3–5 seconds. Story + outcome + CTA = higher engagement.
5
Fear of missing out, security, hope, and pride are powerful. Pair emotion with practical guidance.
6
High-quality, authentic images. Faces and interactions increase engagement. Use brand colors consistently.
7
Headlines: 5–10 words max. Body: 15–30 words. Avoid cluttering with disclaimers.
8
Tell users exactly what to do next: 'Schedule a free consultation' or 'Download our checklist'.
9
Include credentials, press mentions, awards, and client success stories when regulations allow.
10
Use A/B testing on headlines, images, and CTAs. Track metrics and refine based on results.
11
LinkedIn for thought leadership, Facebook/Instagram for visual content, YouTube for educational videos.
12
Use lead magnets for micro-conversions first, then nurture via email and retargeting ads.
