How we generate financial advisor leads on LinkedIn

Business owners and company directors use LinkedIn every day, which makes it one of the best places to start a conversation about their finances.

We research your ideal client and write personal messages that speak to their situation. Once a prospect replies, we manage the conversation until they are ready to book a call with you.

Automation-free, personalised strategies

Personal outreach that protects your account. Our team plans and monitors every campaign, choosing manual or automated outreach to suit your audience. We write every message with FCA guidance in mind, and your account manager reviews it before it goes out.

Worldwide reach, personable service

Manchester might be our flagship office, but we have clients worldwide, as well as offices in Singapore and Chicago. No matter where our clients are located, we can provide a lead generation strategy tailored to their needs. What’s more, we still offer the care and attention of a smaller agency, so you can get the best of both worlds.

Dedicated account managers
When a client signs on to work with us, we assign the right people from our team to support their business. This means you have access to a dedicated account manager from day one who will listen to your current challenges and develop a lead-generation solution to address them.

Lead generation challenges: the obstacles you might have faced with other agencies

01

Lack of strategy

Agencies you’ve previously worked with might have had a lack of strategy when it came to your lead generation. For example, this might look like the agency lacking determined approaches, making random inquiries to you, and failing to identify and target qualified prospects. As a result, you might notice inconsistent client acquisition and difficulty understanding your position within your market.

02

They use a one-size-fits-all approach

Another drawback you might have faced when working with a lead generation previously is that they might have used a one-size-fits-all approach. For example, they might fail to tailor their strategy to your financial business’s specific offering and focus on the wrong types of lead generation. Ultimately, this might mean they waste time targeting low-quality leads instead of relevant prospects.

03

Time-consuming process

If you work with a lead generation agency and they have a lack of strategy with random processes that aren’t personalised to your brand’s needs, it will likely take a lot longer to see results for your business. What’s more, it might take up more of your valuable time as the agency might need more guidance than an agency with an established strategy would.

How StraightIn guarantees high-quality leads

Our IFA lead generation campaigns target people most likely to need independent advice, like directors planning an exit. We tailor each message to their situation, so the first conversation feels relevant from the start.

Our process for guaranteeing high-quality leads involves:

Compliance with FCA regulations: We prioritise FCA compliance in the strategies we create for financial businesses, so you can rest assured.
Nurturing new leads, as well as old ones: As part of our approach, we target new prospects and nurture/re-engage existing ones, so there’s a higher chance of conversion.
Expert conversion management: We ensure our conversations with prospects are strategically aimed at encouraging them to pursue further contact with your business.

Building your Client Portfolio

The simplest but valid reason why financial advisors need lead generation is that it helps to increase client acquisition. As a lead generation strategy, it helps attract the right audience for your business and it will help identify and engage with prospects who might need financial services. Ultimately, growing your client portfolio.

Target the Right People

As previously mentioned, using a lead generation strategy helps to put you in front of the right audience. This is because it refines your prospects into those that are likely to convert – so you waste less time on marketing to individuals who have less chance of becoming a client with your financial business.

Consistent marketing builds trust

As a planned and targeted strategy, lead generation is a great way to build trust with your prospects, as it utilises consistent and frequent engagement. This helps to position you and your business as a key figure in your industry, boosting your authority as a thought leader and ultimately increasing your credibility.

Lead Generation for Financial Advisors FAQs

Why integrate leads with CRM systems?

Integrating lead generation with CRM systems is essential to keeping customer information in one place; helping to enable more efficient management. As you’re able to track interactions and communications with prospects – as well as monitor data in real-time – you can streamline the entire sales process, from the first lead capture to the final purchase.

This can help you better understand what has engaged your prospect, and what specific technique has encouraged them to convert. With a CRM system, you can also focus your attention on leads that are of higher quality (by seeing their levels of engagement and interaction rates).

What is the best form of lead generation for financial advisors?

For most advisers, LinkedIn delivers the best results, where you can reach business owners and professionals directly. Personal outreach starts the conversation, and regular content builds the trust that financial advice depends on. A strong financial advisor marketing plan uses both, so prospects recognise your name before they book a call.

We support this with a full menu of services including:

Content marketing: So you can showcase your expertise and boost your credibility
Consistent social media marketing: So you can maintain a consistent online presence
Targeted email campaigns: So you can send relevant email newsletters to prospects with valuable information

What are the pros of using a lead generation service?

Using a lead generation service such as the one StraightIn provides can be especially beneficial to your business, for example, it provides:

Access to advanced tools and vast expertise
When you use a lead generation service, you’ll be able to access the best, top-of-the-range tools, as well as an abundance of expertise at the hands of people who’ve been producing lead generation strategies for a variety of businesses.

This will help you get your business in front of the right people, understand how to engage high-quality prospects, and increase your overall brand awareness – without you having to lift a finger. So you can do what you do best – run your business.

A high return on investment
Lead generation is a cost-effective form of marketing that promises a high return on investment. This is because it refines your strategy to focus just on the highest-quality leads.

Instead of casting the net out wide and hoping some leads will stick, you can actually target ones that are likely to take an interest in your business and convert.

Increased conversion rate and sales
As your lead generation strategy concentrates on only targeting individuals who are predicted to purchase your products/services, you’ll likely have a higher rate of conversion with prospects.

This means you could see an uptake in sales and customers.

Should I buy IFA leads?

Bought lead lists are often sold to several firms at once, so you compete for the same prospect from the first call. Many contacts on these lists have never shown interest in financial advice. Leads from your own LinkedIn conversations already know who you are, which usually makes them more likely to become clients.
