Social Media and Finance FAQ
How can Financial Advisors use social media?
For the finance sector specifically, the goal of social media should be to promote the authenticity and trustworthiness of your brand against your competitors. Social media allows customers to get to know the “real” face of your company, and not just see you as another bank account. ICUC engages your community on Facebook, Twitter, and any other platform your customers are found.
Which networks are the best online social communities for finance?
While Facebook remains the most prominent social media powerhouse in terms of audience size and ad targeting options, newer social players such as LinkedIn are increasing their value for financial service brands. During our onboarding process, ICUC will provide an in-depth analysis of your company’s unique online position, which will help our team determine where you should focus your digital marketing efforts.
Will ICUC help us build trust with our audience?
Definitely. Of all the losses from the financial crises in the last decade, consumer trust is perhaps the most challenging asset to restore. ICUC’s research tools help you better understand your audience’s needs and pain points, allowing you to foster a relationship with your customer base that is sincere and authentic. Use ICUC’s insights to build active social communities and engage with your audience online.
Is there a real return on social media for the finance industry?
Absolutely. ICUC can unlock a trove of valuable social media data about your current and future customers. It’s more powerful than traditional research methods, less expensive to acquire, and you can get it in real-time.
Will we see more conversions with ICUC social media services?
Yes, you likely will because we track your audience across millions of micro-interactions. ICUC learns what motivates your audience. You can then use these audience-specific insights to improve your products, convert new audiences, or engage niche segments you’ve never been able to access before.
