Financial planning firms · Social media
Post what a family can use, and keep the sales pitch out.
Social media marketing for a planning firm means sharing plain explanations that help a family think about a goal, and leaving out tips and return talk. GullySales works on the post plan, the wording and a review step so nothing breaks the rules for your registration.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What social media means
Social media is the ongoing posting your business does on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn to stay visible to customers and prospects between purchases. GullySales plans a posting calendar, writes captions and designs the images so the page looks active and answers what a visitor would ask.

Sales and marketing for financial planning firms, the overview.
Last updated 18 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.
For financial planning firms
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A feed full of market calls attracts the wrong audience”
Posts about what the index did draw traders and rival planners. A family wants a post about how to talk about money with a spouse or what a plan contains.
“Advertising rules differ by registration”
What a registered adviser may post, and how, depends on the registration held. A post plan needs your compliance adviser's reading before anything goes out, and the firm should check the platform's current rules too.
“The planner is the brand”
Families hire a person. A short video of the planner explaining one idea in plain words shows how the meeting will feel, and a logo-only page cannot do that.
“Posts with no next step go nowhere”
A reader who likes a post has no way to book. Every post plan needs a quiet route to a first meeting, such as a link to the goal page or a message prompt.
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 post plan built on family questions
A list of questions families ask planners, each turned into a post idea in plain words.
Result: You can see the next set of posts and why each exists.
Drafted posts and carousels
Written copy and layout notes for each post, with no returns, tips or product names.
Result: The team has posts ready that follow a single voice.
A compliance check step
A simple route where each draft goes to your adviser or compliance contact before publishing.
Result: Nothing goes live without a recorded approval.
Short video scripts for the planner
Scripts for a planner to speak on camera, each covering one idea in plain words.
Result: The planner records from a script and not from memory.
A booking route from every post
A consistent link or message prompt pointing to the first-meeting booking.
Result: A reader who is interested can book without searching.

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.
