FINANCIAL ADVISERS, IFAs & FINANCIAL PLANNERS

Marketing for Financial Advisers

Help suitable clients discover your financial planning practice, understand your services and request a conversation. Connect your website, organic search and optional advertising around the clients you want to serve.

Start with the people your practice can help

A business owner planning retirement, a family reviewing its finances and someone approaching their first advice meeting may have different questions. Your marketing should explain who you help and what the first conversation involves.

We begin with your actual advice services, permissions, locations and capacity. Independent or restricted status, qualifications and any specialist positioning must accurately reflect the firm. We do not assume every adviser offers the same products or advice.

Give people reasons to trust the practice

Clear adviser profiles, an understandable process and an honest explanation of fees can help a visitor assess the next step. Use genuine reviews with the permissions and context your firm requires. Avoid unsupported performance claims or implying that an introductory meeting guarantees a particular outcome.

Choose channels around the enquiry you want

SEO develops visibility for relevant services and genuine locations. Google Ads can test active advice searches once the account and offering meet applicable requirements. Facebook and Instagram campaigns can introduce an approved resource or service to a suitable audience.

Lead generation planning connects these channels to the firm’s response and consultation process. Measure useful requests and client outcomes where available, rather than treating every click or guide download as a prospective ongoing client.

Build review into the publishing process

We agree who checks service claims, credentials and promotional material before it goes live. Your firm or the appropriate authorised approver handles the required regulatory review; Built for Local provides marketing services, not financial advice or regulatory approval.

The FCA’s social media guidance explains its expectations for financial promotions. The content and context determine which requirements apply; a template disclaimer is not a substitute for review.

Improve the website you already have

We review your existing pages, search data, platform access and consultation journey before recommending changes. A useful website may need clearer service information, stronger local coverage or a simpler enquiry route rather than a rebuild.

If a replacement is justified, the quote covers the content, valuable URLs, redirects, forms and supported integrations. Website development and ongoing marketing are scoped separately.

See how we present local businesses

Our website portfolio shows work for trade businesses, including service layouts and enquiry routes. Your practice would use its own people, verified credentials and approved evidence. We do not present those trade examples as financial adviser results.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions we hear often.

Can you help an independent financial adviser?+

Yes. We scope work around the practice’s actual status, services, target clients, website and approval process.

Do we need a new website?+

Not necessarily. We assess the current site before recommending improvements or a separately quoted rebuild.

Can you approve our financial promotions?+

No. Your firm or the appropriate authorised approver handles regulatory approval. We coordinate the agreed marketing work and review workflow.
