Marketing for financial advisors

Marketing written with your compliance review in mind

We build your site, write the articles and run ads aimed at people nearing retirement or handling an inheritance, and every piece goes to your compliance team for approval before it goes live.

01How customers find you

How people choose a advisory practice.

People rarely hire a financial advisor from a single search. A trigger starts it: retirement getting close, an inheritance, selling a business, a divorce or a parent's death. They ask a friend, their CPA or their estate attorney, then read your site, sometimes for months. They want to know how you are paid, whether you act as a fiduciary, what minimums you have and who you usually work with. Clear answers to those questions do more than any slogan.

Four things every advisory practice site needs

  1. A plain page on how you're paid

    Fee-only, fee-based or commission, and what that means for the client. Prospects ask this early, and regulators expect the description to be accurate.

  2. Who you work with

    A clear picture of your typical client, like retirees or physicians, helps the right people recognize themselves. Mention minimums if you have them.

  3. Disclosures where compliance wants them

    Your required disclosures, along with references to Form ADV or BrokerCheck, placed wherever your compliance team says they belong.

  4. A setup your archiving can capture

    Many firms must keep records of website and social content. We build so your compliance team can capture and archive whatever is published.

03Google Business Profile

Win the map, where most local choices get made.

Primary category to start from: Financial planner. Then the details below, kept current every month for $499 a month.

Check with compliance before inviting reviews

Under the SEC marketing rule and FINRA guidance, reviews can count as testimonials depending on how you request, display or respond to them. Get your firm's policy in writing first.

Keep the description factual

Describe services and who you serve. Phrases like best advisor or guaranteed income cause the same trouble in a profile that they cause in an ad.

Match the name to your registration

Use your business name exactly as it appears on your registration and signage, with no added keywords, so the profile and your filings agree.

04Ads

How we would run your ads.

Each ad service is $499 a month. Your ad budget is paid straight to Google or Meta, never marked up, and you get a report every week.

Google Ads

Advisor keywords are expensive and full of researchers, so we focus on searches that show intent and fit, like fee only advisor near me or retirement planner for teachers, and exclude jobs, licensing exams, robo-advisors and brokerage logins. Ad copy goes through your compliance review before launch. Google has its own financial services ad policies, and we build inside them. Leads go to a calendar for an intro call.

Facebook and Instagram

Meta can work for seminars, webinars and educational videos aimed at people nearing retirement. Depending on what an ad promotes, Meta may place it in a special ad category for financial products, which removes age targeting, so the creative has to speak to retirees on its own. Every ad and comment reply follows your firm's social media policy and archiving rules.

05SEO & AI Search

Answer the questions before they call.

SEO & AI Search ($499 a month) publishes the answers your customers look for, so Google and AI assistants have a reason to send them to you. Articles we would write first:

  1. What to Do With an Old 401(k) After Leaving a Job
  2. How Fee-Only Advisors Are Paid Compared With Commission Advisors
  3. Planning Retirement Income From Several Accounts
  4. First Steps After Receiving an Inheritance
  5. When to Start Social Security: The Questions to Ask

What people now ask AI assistants

  • Is a fee-only financial advisor worth the cost?
  • What questions should I ask a financial advisor before hiring them?
  • How do I find a fiduciary financial planner near me?

Busy and slow seasons

Interest follows life events more than seasons, but there are rhythms. Year-end brings tax and required distribution questions, January brings resolutions, and tax season sends people from their CPA to an advisor. Market drops and big headlines bring calls from worried savers and from people unhappy with their current advisor.

The mistake we see most

Advisor marketing goes wrong when it skips compliance or makes promises. SEC-registered advisers fall under the SEC marketing rule, and broker-dealer reps under FINRA communication rules and their firm's review. Testimonials, performance figures and words like guaranteed carry specific requirements. We draft, and your compliance team approves.

Common questions

Ask anything else on your free consultation.

Will our compliance department need to approve everything?

Probably, and we plan for it. We send site pages, articles and ads in a format your compliance team can review and archive, we make their edits, and nothing goes live without sign-off. Review time is built into the schedule we give you on the consultation call.

Can you build a site if our broker-dealer has rules about websites?

Often, yes. Many broker-dealers keep approved vendor lists or required templates, so check that first and tell us what they allow. If we can build it, we follow their disclosure and content rules. If a custom site is allowed, Starter costs $1,499 one time, plus $99 a month for Hosting & Management.

Does SEO work for financial advisors?

It helps, because prospects read for a long time before reaching out. SEO & AI Search covers articles on questions like rolling over a 401(k), on-page fixes and local citations, and each article goes through your compliance review. AI assistants now answer a lot of money questions directly, and clear, specific articles are what they draw from.

Are advisors allowed to use Google Business Profile?

Usually, yes, though some firms restrict reviews or replies, so check your policy. Google Business Profile Management at $499 a month keeps hours, services and photos accurate and posts regular updates. We follow whatever review rules compliance sets, including not asking for reviews at all if that is the policy.
