FAQs
How will Aspina's marketing services help my firm?
Marketing can help a financial professional by building trust, visibility, and credibility with potential clients. Through strategic use of branding, content, social media, and client referrals, marketing allows financial professionals to clearly communicate their expertise, values, and services. This not only attracts new clients but also nurtures existing relationships, helping to retain business and encourage referrals. In a competitive industry where personal relationships and reputation are key, effective marketing differentiates a financial professional from others and positions them as a reliable, knowledgeable authority.
Why does social media marketing makes sense for Financial Advisers?
Social media is a valuable tool for financial advisers looking to connect with clients and prospects. Platforms like Linkedin, Facebook, and even TikTok offer opportunities to showcase your expertise, build trust, and reach people where they're already spending their time.
If you're not active on social media, you could be missing out on valuable visibility and falling behind competitors who are.
What are the benefits of Social Media Marketing for Financial Advisers?
In a profession built on trust and relationships, social media can be a powerful way to stay front of mind and show your value. Social media marketing (SMM) can benefit your financial advice business by:
- Building trust and adds a personal, human touch to your brand
- Driving traffic to your website or landing pages
- Generating high-quality leads and potential clients
- Boosting your brand awareness in your local area or niche
- Strengthening relationships with existing clients through regular engagement

Which social media platforms do you recommend for financial advisers like me, and why?
For financial advisers, LinkedIn is essential due to its professional audience, allowing you to showcase expertise, network with potential clients, and position yourself as a thought leader. Facebook can complement this by reaching a broader demographic and engaging local communities. Instagram and Twitter can also play a role depending on your desired audience, but LinkedIn and Facebook typically deliver the strongest returns for financial planners.
What is your process for developing marketing material and social media content tailored to my client demographic?
We begin by thoroughly understanding your business, brand values and ideal client demographics. We then craft a customised social media strategy, choosing relevant topics and appropriate content formats such as videos, educational articles, client testimonials, and professional graphics.
Do you create all the content, or am I expected to provide input regularly?
We handle all aspects of content creation, including copywriting, graphics, and video content, tailored specifically for your brand. However, your input is needed each month for personal postings that are unique to you; for example, client testimonials, involvement with sponsorship, a photo-opportunity, etc.
What kind of budget do I need to see tangible results?
Budgets can vary significantly and so we provide three Marketing Plans and three Social Media Plans all with different prices.
Is Social Media Advertising Worth the Investment for Financial Advisers?
Yes. Social media advertising allows financial advisers to connect directly with potential clients who are already interested in your services or closely match your ideal client profile. It enables you to deliver targeted, tailored messages that build trust, demonstrate your expertise, and nurture meaningful relationships.
Is Social Media Advertising Right for My Financial Advice Business?
Social media advertising is ideal for any financial adviser looking to attract more clients, build their professional brand, and enhance their online presence. In 2023, around 91% of the UK population actively used social media—a figure that continues to grow. This highlights why having a digital presence isn't just beneficial; it's essential for advisers aiming to stay relevant and competitive.
With the financial advice market increasingly crowded, social media helps you build trust, credibility, and genuine connections. Establish yourself as the trusted expert online, and you'll unlock powerful opportunities for business growth.
How do you measure success, and how quickly might I expect to see results?
We measure success through metrics like increased client enquiries, web traffic, follower growth, brand reach, and engagement rates. Typically, noticeable improvements in online engagement and enquiries begin to appear after the first 4–5 months. More significant, sustained results, such as client acquisition and consistent lead generation, are typically achieved after 6 months of focused activity.
