Business Development — Properly Backed
Dedicated marketing manager — strategy, execution, oversight
Social media management — content, posting, engagement (handled)
Lead generation support — targeted campaigns, data, outreach
Campaign budget tailored to you — events, connections, digital, content — you choose where to invest
Systems and tools — the infrastructure to scale without admin overhead
Why This Works
This is proper backing. You get:
A whole business development team behind you — marketing manager, social media, lead generation, campaign execution. You focus on planning and client relationships; they handle the noise.
A real budget to work with — you choose where to invest (events, digital, content, connections). Money's there. You just decide the strategy.
Paraplanning and admin — so your time goes to clients and growth, not paperwork.
Your diary is yours — you control your schedule, your time, your practice. The team want advisers who are self-directed and want tools, not management. They're giving you the infrastructure; you run the show.
The bonus structure rewards growth — 0.42% of AUM you bring through the door, quarterly. You're incentivised to bring quality clients through holistic planning, not churn.
You're building a practice, not starting from scratch. And you've got a team doing the heavy lifting on business development.
