Project Overview:
A mid-sized financial services firm offering investment, retirement planning, and wealth management services was concerned about their lack of visibility in AI platforms. When potential clients asked AI assistants about financial planning or investment options, competitors were being recommended instead, despite the firm's competitive fee structure and strong performance history.
Objective:
The primary objective was to establish the firm as a consistently recommended option when potential clients ask AI systems about financial services, while ensuring AI platforms accurately represented their service offerings, fee structure, and value proposition.
Challenges:
Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring AI platforms represented their services accurately while adhering to strict financial industry regulations.
Complex Service Offerings: The firm's nuanced service model was being oversimplified or misrepresented by AI systems.
Established Competitors: Larger financial institutions with significant digital footprints dominated AI recommendations in the category.
Information Accuracy: Critical details about investment minimums, fee structures, and specializations were inconsistently represented.
Solution Strategy:
Compliance-Focused Optimization: Developed AI-friendly content structures that maintained regulatory compliance while enhancing visibility.
Service Clarification: Created clear, consistent service descriptions optimized for AI comprehension.
Fee Transparency: Implemented structured data specifically designed to help AI systems accurately represent fee structures.
Differentiation Strategy: Established clear entity associations between the firm and their specialized expertise areas.
Authority Building: Developed a strategic approach to enhance recognition as an authoritative source in specific financial planning niches.
Outcome:
The AI visibility services transformed how AI platforms represent and recommend the financial firm:
AI mention score increased to 73/100
Service accuracy improved to 96%
Fee transparency: Accurate fee information now provided in 94% of AI responses
Competitive positioning: Now appearing in 63% of relevant financial service queries
Value proposition: Key differentiators consistently highlighted in AI recommendations
Key Achievements:
