Financial planning firms · Digital marketing
Put the planning firm's whole online presence to work on one task.
Digital marketing for a planning firm means joining the site, the search profile, the content, the chat and the follow-up into one route from a family's question to a signed engagement. GullySales works on the route and the record that shows which parts produce plans.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What digital marketing means
Digital marketing is the combined work of search, social media, advertising and website channels running together rather than as separate projects with separate people. GullySales runs these as one connected system so a change in one channel, such as a new offer, is reflected everywhere at once.

Sales and marketing for financial planning firms, the overview.

For financial planning firms
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Pieces without a route do not add up”
A website, a profile and a few posts, each built separately, leave a family with no clear way to book. The pieces need to lead to a single first-meeting booking.
“Paid ads need a compliance reading”
Ads for financial advice face rules that differ by registration and by platform. Check the platform's current rules and your adviser's guidance before any money is spent.
“Effort goes where the loudest voice is”
A firm may spend on social posts because they are visible, while the engagements come from referrals. Reading enquiries against signed plans shows where effort belongs.
“A planner's calendar is the limit”
A campaign that brings more enquiries than the planner can meet leaves families waiting. Marketing should be sized to the number of first meetings the firm can hold.
What we do
What we deliver for financial planning firms.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A one-page marketing plan
A plan stating the families you serve, the routes that reach them and the single booking route.
Result: You hold a one-page statement of what the firm will do.
A channel audit
A review of the site, profile, social pages and listings, noting what is accurate and what is missing.
Result: You see every online presence in one list.
Search and content plan
A joined plan for the pages and guides that answer a family's questions.
Result: Pages and guides work from one plan.
An enquiry-to-engagement tally
A record of leads by source and by outcome, kept in the CRM or a sheet.
Result: You can read which routes produce signed plans.
A capacity check
A note linking the number of first meetings the firm can hold to the effort planned.
Result: Marketing is sized to the planner's calendar.
How the result is measured

Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
