Platform market entry & qualified demand
Two connected workstreams for a platform entering the U.S. advisory market: broad editorial authority, plus named-account activation across a defined universe of target firms.
Six-month pilot
An anonymised campaign proposal example illustrating an approach. It is not a completed case study and shows no historical results.
The objective
What the programme sets out to do.
Help a platform new to the U.S. market win its first group of advisory firms. One workstream builds broad authority on independence and operating freedom; the other works a named list of target firms through to qualified conversations.
Audience
Future breakaway firms
Around 120 advisor teams considering a move to independence, where the operating platform decision is still open.
Audience
Newly independent RIAs
Around 80 recently formed firms building their operating model and choosing their long-term infrastructure.
Audience
Established challenger RIAs
Around 50 growing independent firms re-examining technology, cost and service as they scale.
