Key findings

Behavioural insights into your prospects

Netwealth’s 2024 Advisable Australian research paints a vivid picture of the opportunities financial advisers face in engaging potential clients.

Prospects are not driven by price alone

One of the main findings of our research is that the barriers to advice is not just price, but largely deep-rooted emotional drivers, like being loss-adverse, being focused on today or having an unrealistic overconfidence in financial abilities.

Using the right language will influence a prospect

Whether you are communicating digitally via your website, or in person, the language you use can sway a prospect. Our research has identified that certain persuasive language can articulate value better, so it is important that advice firms spend time crafting appropriate language to use.

59% of prospects will value education and knowledge from their adviser

One way to bridge the value gap is to educate prospects and help them navigate complex financial decisions. Our research shows that most prospects want to learn and understand their finances, not just receive advice. They seek to enhance their financial literacy by challenging themselves with new perspectives and insights.

Case-studies can go a long way to demonstrate value

The use of case-studies that showcase how your firm has helped clients with similar goals, challenges, circumstances and even background is an important tool for advice firms to demonstrate value and increase trust and credibility.

Value for money model

Prospects say they want value, but what is value?

 

Value is ambiguous, however with Netwealth’s Value for Money Model we have defined three key drivers: motivation, ease, and context.

  • Motivation refers to how your service aligns with the prospect’s personal goals and aspirations.
  • Ease refers to how the service simplifies the process of engaging and receiving financial advice.
  • Context refers to how the service provides cultural, social, and environmental cues that foster confidence in your service.
