“Our company had a number of great marketing ideas and pieces, and we were in a time of growth from referrals and acquisitions. AdvisorPR listened to where we had been and where we wanted to go. They identified a number of significant gaps in our messaging and pulled together our theme, visuals and contents beautifully. AdvisorPR is unusually skilled at LISTENING and gifted at PRODUCING a product that captures the vision without making a complete overhaul of our marketing collaterals. I have worked with many companies in the past, and most could only see their own vision for our company messaging. AdvisorPR was able to enhance what we already had so our changes are an enhancement rather than an overhaul. I highly recommend AdvisorPR.”
“Within the first two months of joining AdvisorPR, I have secured a number of media placements on topics that support my area of expertise…The good news just keeps coming! The overall experience has been so great.”
“AdvisorPR helped us develop a multi-page brochure to communicate our sales process and to establish the value we deliver for our planning fees. We have had good success over the past year and use it regularly in our discovery meetings. We’ve even had prospects come in with it printed out and marked up for discussion!”
“We have utilized an email marketing system to manage a large database of prospects for our RIA for several years. AdvisorPR helped identify automation opportunities and write emails to clean up our lists and increase engagement. The messaging was perfect! They continue to make my job easier. I don’t know what I’d do without them!”
“With the brand consulting help of AdvisorPR, I recently held a two-night seminar series and pulled 20 out of 32 total buying units into a first appointment. The information and messaging assistance for communicating my brand value they provided were definitely a part of that success.”
“We’ve been in business for 30 years. Over that time we’ve used various companies for public relations. We have been most impressed with the work AdvisorPR has done. It has been thorough, well thought out, and top quality. Their proactive attention to detail and going the taking extra steps to make sure everything is done on time and correctly has saved us time on follow-up. We recommend them highly.”
“We were looking for a way to engage prospects with consistent, branded materials, that spelled out our planning process and who we were as a company. The materials provided by AdvisorPR far exceeded our expectations. Prospects are reading through all of the materials now, which was not happening in the past, and actually asking detailed questions about the materials they were given. There is no doubt that the materials have increased client acquisition and made closing business easier.”
“AdvisorPR is an amazing company to work with. We have PR raining down on us, and really value that when prospective clients do a google search on us, they’re seeing pages of very impressive media interviews! People are still talking to me about interviews I did over a year ago. It’s really helped to set us apart from others in our area.”
“Courtney and her team have been instrumental in helping us improve our brand identity. They have been a pleasure to work with and have provided valuable insight to the design of our various marketing pieces. We are certainly much more organized from a marketing perspective thanks to AdvisorPR.”
“AdvisorPR has been great for my retirement planning practice. Since hiring them earlier this year, I have been quoted in Money Magazine, US News, Yahoo Finance, Consumer Reports, plus my local media. I encourage you to use AdvisorPR.”
“Since starting with AdvisorPR’s ‘In the News’ program, I have gained both local, regional and national presence that I was not able to achieve before. This exposure has allowed me to increase my credibility tremendously with both clients and prospects. If you have thought about using AdvisorPR before and not taken any action – JUST DO IT. Your return on investment is priceless.”
“AdvisorPR has been great to work with! They have helped us gain more credibility as financial experts by the articles they have coordinated for us, like USA Today, Money.com, and The Wall Street Journal. Everyone on the team at Advisor PR is great to work with. They are always prepared and polite.”
“I have had the opportunity to work with a lot of marketing, branding, and PR firms over the 10+ years I have been in this industry, and my general experience has been about the same. It seemed they all over-promised to win the business, and then under-delivered. I never experienced a great ROI. That all changed when we made a big commitment to AdvisorPR and allowed them to run our entire marketing department. Since having AdvisorPR take over our marketing, we have had a much more professional and consistent brand, enhanced our positioning in the industry, received numerous awards and recognition such as INC 5000 Fastest Growing Companies, Investment News 40 under 40 for our CEO, and articles and exposure in major publications both print and online almost weekly. The AdvisorPR team has incredible talent and the connections in the industry to produce results.”
“We’ve increased our credibility with new clients by running a media reel of published articles and TV interviews in our lobby waiting area for all to see as they enter our office. AdvisorPR has helped us to secure the interviews as well as create the reel! You are all GREAT! I love what you do for me and my practice.”
“AdvisorPR ghostwrites a monthly financial column for me for my local newspaper. I can attribute several new prospects each year that call to meet with me because they are regular readers of my column. In addition to that, many of my clients and prospects comment how much they enjoy reading my column each month. It certainly has helped position me as a person of expertise in my community.”
“AdvisorPR helped us get a new part of our business up and running. Through their efforts, we established instant credibility with prospective clients, shortened our sales cycle and added $2.5 million in increased sales as a result.”
“AdvisorPR is the real thing. If you are an investment professional or give advice about financial and estate planning you cannot afford to pass by or procrastinate signing on with Alana. She knows our business very well (sometimes better than we do). AdvisorPR positions YOU as THE professional in your area. She has great relationships with reporters and writers. They respect her and that gets YOU recognized. Write the check, sign the agreement. The call(s) will come and you will be on TV or in the papers as many times as you desire.”
“Most of us in our business are too busy doing what we do best, learning about great ideas to implement that will generate business, but we don’t have the time to follow through with those strategies. That’s why it is important to align yourself with specialists who will accomplish what you need done in a fraction of the time and resources it would have taken you to do it yourself. AdvisorPR is the real-deal specialists, I have identified and will capture in excess of $25 million in new assets this year from their efforts”
“We have worked with AdvisorPR for over three years and value our partnership as an integral part of our marketing strategies. We appreciated the consistency, high quality and on time performance of their marketing systems. The APR team has always paid the utmost of attention to detail and delivers an extremely high quality product. They have always been responsive, flexible, proactive and creating in using their resources to provide a great level of service with the ability to grow and customize their programs to our needs. We unconditionally and without reservation want to recommend AdvisorPR. No doubts, no worry … reliable quality and attention to detail.
“I have to say that the results generated by my campaign with AdvisorPR have been amazing! Within days of my press releases going out to my chosen media, I have confirmed placements in two local publications with one doing a feature story on me! As a result, I am discussing a full-fledged marketing campaign with them. Thanks AdvisorPR!”
“Working with Alana and the professionals at AdvisorPR has been one of the best marketing moves we’ve made in years! I’ve been amazed at the results they have brought us in such a short period of time. They have truly helped us to position ourselves as the experts in our market place. I was also very impressed with the level of diligence that everyone at AdvisorPR worked with to identify opportunities for us. Thanks Alana!
“Working with AdvisorPR has been a great experience. Not only are they extremely creative and professional, they really take the time to listen to and understand their clients. I highly recommend their services”
“We have had other PR folks on retainer in our firm in the past and have produced little to NO results. Since we have been working with Alana and the team at AdvisorPR we have been on TV, radio and the front page of many newspapers with countless mentions in print form. Not only has AdvisorPR produced BIG results for us and our firm, they are easy and fun to work with. If you are contemplating any other PR firm forget it! Alana and AdvisorPR are the REAL thing in the financial service business. If you want to be THE senior or boomer financial advisor in your area, hire Alana and her team! You’re crazy if you don’t!”
“I just wanted to say thanks to everyone at AdvisorPR. In less than one year, I went from having an old, outdated newspaper feature about me to having a regular weekly contributing column in the largest weekend publication in my area. Not to mention, you helped secure my spot on the cover of Senior Market Advisor magazine. Thanks for helping me explode my PR!
“We have used another PR company and there is a HUGE difference with AdvisorPR. You can tell immediately they care about our success. The results show they know what they are doing.”
“AdvisorPR is one of the best investments I have made in my business. I would recommend anyone that is serious about wanting to get media attention to use AdvisorPR.”
“Alana Kohl of AdvisorPR has become a trusted PR advisor to the National Ethics Bureau. Over the last several years, she has helped NEB raise its national media profile. She also was the driving force behind our co-branded Member Media Campaign service, helping to design, promote, and launch the offering in 2006. In my dealings with Alana, I have found her to be the consummate PR professional: creative, media savvy and full of insight. Not only does she know her field, she is a charming and engaging person to work with. In short, in the several years I’ve worked with Alana, I’ve been highly impressed with her capabilities, insights and deep knowledge of the financial services industry. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
