Private Wealth Management

Connect With Your Niche

Marketing yourself effectively as a financial advisor requires more than showing your expertise in portfolio management and tax planning. You have to show how these topics affect the specific sub-segments and niches of the investor universe that you’re trying to reach. From ultra-high-net-worth to mass affluent, we understand the various concerns of investors across the wealth spectrum.

Experience Writing About Topics Where Advisors Add Value

In a world of robo-advisors, passive investing, and fee compression, financial advisors must work harder to show the ways they are adding value for investors. We work with private wealth management firms to highlight the ways they guide clients through their most pressing financial decisions and build enduring wealth. Topics we’ve written about for wealth managers include:

Portfolio Management

  • Accessing alternatives
  • Asset allocation
  • Impact investing and ESG
  • Roth vs. traditional IRAs
  • Preparing for volatility
  • Tax-loss harvesting

Wealth Planning

  • Behavioral finance
  • College savings strategies
  • Estate planning and wealth transfer
  • Family office services
  • Goals-based planning
  • Philanthropic strategies

Executive Compensation

  • Concentrated stock positions
  • Liquidity events for business owners
  • Private placement life insurance
  • Qualified small business stock
  • Stock options and restricted stock
  • Succession planning
