Improvement in Qualified Lead Rate

In early 2025, a national wealth advisory firm approached us following the sudden departure of their internal digital marketing lead. With ambitious growth targets and a sophisticated sales process, they had turned to a premium digital agency to fill the gap. Despite a $130,000 monthly Google Ads budget, campaign performance had stagnated. Leads were inconsistent, conversion volumes were far below target, and the agency lacked a deep understanding of the firm's financial services model and client acquisition metrics. With pressure mounting from leadership and quotas slipping, the firm needed a performance-driven partner who could realign marketing to business outcomes.

Before

Misaligned Strategy

The previous agency failed to understand the sales process and client journey; campaigns lacked strategic direction.

Generic Ad Messaging

Campaigns used broad, templated ads that didn't speak to the wealth advisory firm's high net worth audience.

Underwhelming Lead Volume

Despite giving them an open scaling budget (they were unable to spend above $135k) to hit lead quotas, their numbers were falling short of targets.

No Sales Funnel Visibility

No clarity on lead quality, attribution, or follow-up processes; marketing wasn't connected to revenue.
