At Future Proof Citywide, our very own Partner and CMO Michelle Winkles, MBA joined Nyle Bayer and Mary Kate Gulick for a discussion on how financial firms can elevate their social media and content marketing strategies. In today's digital-first world, content marketing isn't just about posting updates—it’s about building trust, driving engagement, and meeting clients where they are. The firms that embrace content as a long-term strategy, not just a marketing tactic, will be the ones that stand out in an increasingly competitive landscape. #MissionWealth #FutureProof #ContentMarketing #WealthManagement #DigitalMarketing #FinancialAdvisors #MarketingStrategy #BrandGrowth #SocialMediaForFinance
This week I had the privilege of speaking on a panel on stage at Future Proof Citywide 🌴 alongside Nyle Bayer and Mary Kate Gulick on content and social media optimization for business development. We dove deep into how financial firms can elevate their content marketing strategies to drive engagement and organic growth. Here are my top takeaways in case you missed it! ➡️ We started with the question, "What is content marketing?" We explained how it’s more than just posting updates or sharing market insights; it’s about building trust, educating, and engaging with the right audience in a way that resonates. The best content doesn’t just exist, it attracts, nurtures, and converts over time. ➡️ A great way to think about a strategic social media content approach: 🔹WHY: Start with the goal in mind. What are you trying to achieve? (Brand awareness? Lead generation? Community engagement?) 🔹WHO: Define your Ideal Client Profile (ICP). Who are you speaking to? 🔹WHERE: Choose the right platforms based on your audience's habits. (Hint: Not all clients are on LinkedIn!) 🔹WHAT: Develop content topics that solve problems, inspire, and educate. Use humor or be authentic. 🔹HOW: Use the right formats: video, carousels, Q&A posts, short-form clips to capture attention. Leave them feeling a certain way. 🔹WHEN: Establish a consistent cadence so your audience knows what to expect and post at the right time of day for that audience. 🔹REVIEW. Measure, refine, and amplify what’s working. ➡️ Short-Form Video is a Game-Changer! Video outperforms static posts in engagement and retention. If you’re not investing in bite-sized educational clips, behind-the-scenes firm culture, or thought leadership videos, you’re missing a huge opportunity. ➡️ AI & Social Search Are Reshaping Discovery. Google isn’t the only search engine anymore. More people (especially next-gen investors) search for financial advice on TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and AI engines like ChatGPT before they ever hit Google. If your content isn’t optimized for AI or social-first search, you’re not showing up where prospects are looking. ➡️ Storytelling & Personalization Win. People connect with people, not brands. The most effective firms highlight real advisors, real experiences, and client-driven insights (while staying compliant). Authenticity and relatability build credibility. ➡️ Engagement Matters More Than Impressions. Posting content is just the start. The real magic happens in the comments, shares, and discussions. 🚀 Final Thought: The firms that embrace content as a long-term trust-building tool, not just a marketing tactic, will be the ones that thrive in an increasingly digital-first world. I would love to hear what content strategies have been working best for you? Let’s keep the conversation going! 👇 #ContentMarketing #SocialMediaStrategy #WealthManagement #Marketing #FutureProof #MissionWealth

The start of this year is a prime example of how the benefits of well-constructed portfolios can shine during challenging times. Outside of U.S. stocks, all other major asset classes are positive year to date. We view the current period of uncertainty, and to the extent volatility continues, as an opportunity to add value with our disciplined approach to portfolio construction and rebalancing.
