What is a Financial Wellness Platform?

Showcase your understanding of clients' changing financial needs and deliver personalized insights—when they need them. By embracing one of these client-facing platforms, build trust and loyalty, and differentiate yourself in a competitive industry.


Benefits of Embracing a Financial Wellness Platform


Gains for You, the Advisor

Lifelong Client Retention: Clients are no longer numbers on a ledger. They're partners on a wellness journey, looking to you for your guidance and expertise. A personalized digital platform creates a bond that, sure, provides transactional services, but it also secures your spot in your clients’ financial lives.


Attracting The Next-Gen: Positioning yourself as a savvy, tech-driven financial advisor is essential to appeal to millennial and Gen Z clients who crave relevance, digital modernization, and straightforward advice and can see through poorly veiled sales attempts.


Upselling and Cross-Selling With Purpose: Capturing your clients’ entire financial life on one platform seamlessly reveals upsell and cross-sell opportunities, avoiding a crass sales pitch. Your clients’ digital interactions become valuable data points, expertly leveraged to enhance asset growth, customize experiences, and guide them toward financial products or services that are timely and relevant to their financial needs.


Enhanced Communication Tools: Client communication fosters trust, understanding, and a sense of partnership. With secure messaging, real-time notifications, and easy document sharing, these tools streamline interactions, boost security, and guarantee confidentiality, paving the way for quality advisor-client relationships.


Scalability: Pocketnest effortlessly grows with your business, handling more clients and diverse financial services. It ensures your ability to adapt to changes without adding unnecessary complexities.


Benefits for Your Clients

Personalized AI at Their Service: The AI integrated into our platform serves as a dedicated advisor to your clients' financial wellness journey. By sourcing Pocketnest’s expert content and user data, this AI delivers personalized, holistic, and actionable advice. It's like having a financial advisor available 24/7, finely tuned to the nuances of each client's financial situation, ensuring that every piece of advice is as relevant as it is empowering. Don’t worry—we’re not taking your place! We’re mining through inquiries and data to queue up leads and sales opportunities so you can spend less time on lead generation and more time providing quality insights and increasing your assets under management.


Nurturing Every Single Aspect: Financial wellness is more than simply having a checking account and retirement savings plan. Our platform covers ten core financial themes, ensuring we’re accounting for every aspect of your clients' financial lives. From budgeting to retirement planning, insurance to estate planning, we leave no stone unturned. This comprehensive approach means your clients can feel confident their financial strategy is robust, resilient, and ready for the future.


Discovery and Resolution of Gaps: Pocketnest makes it simple for your clients to pinpoint and address gaps in their financial plans. Astonishingly, 90% of individuals overlook critical elements, and half who believe their plans are complete actually have significant holes. Pocketnest identifies gaps in your clients’ financial plans and educates them to fill those gaps with an approachable, well-rounded financial strategy.


Non-Pushy Product Placement: A financial plan isn’t a one-size-fits-all deal. Our approach to financial products is fundamentally different than what you’ve ever experienced. We don’t senselessly push products on your clients. Instead, we focus on educating clients and empowering them to make informed decisions. Product recommendations are tailored to their unique financial situation, relevant and useful rather than intrusive.


Tackling the Trust Deficit: Trust is invaluable. We focus on providing clear, honest information so your clients can confidently tackle financial conversations and own their finances.
