SCALE MARKETING & RECRUIT ADVISORS
RIA Marketing
Independent advisors need a place they can call home but you need a brand that communicates your values and a platform to manage multiple advisors.
ADVISOR STORY
Established RIA looking to continue growing rapidly.
Firm size: 280+ advisors
Specialty: In-house investment management, tax practices, marketing support, business development, compliance, etc
Location: Chester, NJ



Challenge
As a RIA Hybrid Firm who has always done things the same way Gladstone faced challenges communicating their values and scaling their business. Visiting their website left both investors and advisors confused about how they help and why they’re a trustworthy enterprise. Due to the lack of SEO and having an RIA specific marketing strategy driving new business was challenging.

Solution
AZELLA worked with the executive leadership to establish a brand that communicated the mission and values to both their investors and advisors. Started by deeply understanding how they provide value, enhanced their logo and colors, developed an SEO optimized investor website and advisor recruiting site that included eBooks, relevant articles and lead capturing.

Results
After launching their renewed brand and both SEO optimized RIA marketing websites, they immediately began to drive visibility. Having a clearly defined message helped to increase converting prospects that had been in the pipeline (including a few billion dollar teams transitioning from a wirehouse).
