How is artificial intelligence transforming financial advisor prospecting?
Use artificial intelligence to identify prospects, personalize outreach and accelerate organic growth.
Read Mike Byrnes’ Financial Advisor article entitled, “Artificial Intelligence Is Transforming Advisor Prospecting.”
He interviewed Dan Cavanaugh, who heads wealth management for Aidentified in preparation for their FSI webinar. Here are 10 key insights from their discussion:
- Build a strategy (not a collection of tools) – The winners will not be those with the most AI tools, it will be the ones who used the right ones to solve the right problems.
- Orchestrate the tech stack – Layered on good data, AI will become the layer that pulls everything together.
- Start with the problem – Many advisors are diving into technological advancements without first figuring out how to solve the underlying business problems.
- Use AI beyond improved efficiencies – Focus on growth and be specific about target markets.
- Leverage AI to grow – With AI, advisors no longer have to wait for referrals or the occasional prospect who discovered them online.
- Personalize outreach – Use AI to develop more relevant communications based on a prospect’s circumstances, interests and potential needs.
- Make prospecting more effective – Use AI to improve how you identify, research and prioritize potential clients.
- Maximize client connections – Build a workflow and have AI surface potential introductions before every meeting.
- Have strong marketing fundamentals – To grow, it is important to have a clearly defined target market, compelling positioning, good communication, effective sales skills and a disciplined follow-up process.
- AI needs good data – Models will struggle with inaccurate, incomplete or disconnected information.
