FAQs

What is the benefit of a marketing strategy for Financial Planners/Wealth Managers/IFAs?

To stand out among financial advisers, you must be seen, heard, and understood, as well as clear about why clients should choose you. A robust marketing strategy that blends online and offline tactics will showcase your expertise, highlight successful projects, build trust, and engage both your ideal clients and referrers.

An effective marketing strategy can result in business growth, high-quality leads, and attracting the right talent.

The perfect marketing mix depends on your business goals and objectives. There is no universal solution, but an integrated strategy - blending digital marketing, content marketing, PR, SEO, and CRO, among other tactics - is essential. This approach helps you pinpoint where your clients are and how to market them.

Maintaining visibility across online and offline platforms keeps your firm top-of-mind for clients seeking financial advice. Search engines prioritise sites with demonstrated expertise, authority, and trustworthiness (E-E-A-T). An integrated strategy lets you connect with potential clients throughout their journey - from awareness to conversion - boosting engagement, generating leads and referrals, and driving business growth.

In a competitive market, you cannot simply expect clients to choose you. You need to engage, educate, and inspire them through your content. Showcase your expertise, share your story, and highlight your culture through hyper-relevant content.

A strong content marketing strategy goes beyond social media updates and blog posts. It includes industry articles, videos, webinars, white papers, and podcasts. You likely have a wealth of topics between your team and your clients; case studies, testimonials, feedback, and project data can all be transformed as part of your strategy. Let us help you unlock this potential and maximise your strategy's impact.

 

Your potential clients are no longer just on LinkedIn; they're also scrolling through X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. By establishing a strong presence on these platforms, you can meet them where they spend their time and position yourself as a trusted expert.

A good social media strategy demands more than sporadic posts on LinkedIn or Facebook. You need a well-crafted plan aligned with your goals and objectives. Social media platforms are the perfect place to share industry insights, highlight client successes, or offer valuable tips. This approach builds genuine relationships with your audience.

Whether you're starting your firm's social media journey from scratch or have existing accounts that need re-energising, we will audit your current activity, expand your audience, and develop a strategic plan to enhance your brand's trust and visibility.

Digital marketing offers incredible opportunities to boost your reputation, establish your firm as a leading IFA firm, and attract high-quality leads. By integrating search engine optimisation (SEO), social media, pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, online PR, and a responsive website into your strategy, you ensure that potential clients find you whenever they seek financial advice.

We collaborate with your management team and marketing resources to understand your goals, develop and then launch engaging, optimised digital content and cost-effective advertising campaigns.

 

Have you ever wondered why your website attracts visitors but lacks engagement? The answer is conversion rate optimisation (CRO). CRO transforms visits into meaningful actions - like filling out forms, downloading resources, subscribing to newsletters, or making inquiries. By analysing user behaviour and implementing strategic changes, you can significantly increase conversions.

Using the latest techniques, tools and software, we enhance your website's user experience (UX) by refining landing pages, adding clear calls to action (CTAs), and conducting A/B tests to enhance your website's conversion rate, turning clicks into clients!

You know your firm inside out and have amazing stories to share. But how do you tell them effectively? A solid PR plan is key. Media coverage - whether in newspapers, podcasts, or industry blogs - enhances your credibility and visibility, driving referrals and leads.

With our background in marketing and communications for professional services, we uncover compelling stories and transform them into impactful PR that resonates with your audience.

You don't need to spend time crafting the perfect marketing plan; you're focusing on winning and servicing client work. But marketing remains crucial for your firm's success. Let experts handle it. An outsourced marketing firm like Cal Partners can give you the peace of mind that your marketing is in the hands of experienced, skilled professionals.

Leveraging our expertise as senior in-house marketers to understand your business and its clients, we can craft a marketing strategy that enhances your firm's reputation, draws in ideal clients, and secures top talent.

Do you want to showcase your expertise, give your firm personality, or simplify complex financial processes? Video and animation can be just the way to do it. Over 50% of B2B firms already use video marketing to drive leads.

Whether it's short introductory videos on your website, explainer animations or quick, insightful industry updates, videos grab attention and leave a lasting impression.

From crafting compelling scripts and vivid storyboards to seamless production and editing, we transform your message into content that engages your audience and drives leads.

For the business to continue to grow, it's necessary to build and nurture a team of best-in-class talent to manage the rising workload. In a competitive job market, you must showcase your firm as the ideal choice for prospective candidates. Recruitment marketing positions your brand by highlighting unique opportunities and benefits that make you stand out.

At Cal Partners, we recognise that marketing to prospective employees is just as important as marketing to clients, and many of the same tactics can be used. Use quality job postings, engaging career pages, and compelling employee testimonials to stand out on social media. We can help you create a strong employer brand and build a top-level team.
