Product

Your domain name will need to be purchased separately from your website before we can help configure it (attach it to your website location). Our recommendation for the domain name provider is GoDaddy registrar. 

Once you’ve purchased your domain URL, our Onboarding Team will help you complete the rest!

Advisor Websites maintains ownership of the platform and software along with any content provided by our team or through our Content Library. Content created by yourself or BD along with your website domain URL is the ownership of the client. For more information, book a time with our Website Specialists, or view our Terms of Use here. 

Our Automated Social Media Sharing Tool allows you to automatically share your blogs, events and other content directly to your Twitter, LinkedIn  and Facebook channels.

You’re also able to link your social media accounts to any page of your website (home page, team page, and contact page are the most popular). It’s easy enough to set up on your own, but don’t forget that all of our plans include 1hr of support time per month if you need a helping hand!

Yes, you have the ability to post your own articles, videos and other content on your website. Your Onboarding Specialist will provide you with training throughout your website build. 

Another way that we help elevate your online presence is through our Content Library which is equipped with pre-written content, videos, and infographics for you to use. All you need to do is select the one you like and publish it as your own or edit it to your liking. It’s an easy way to increase website conversion and stay engaged with your clients.

Onboarding Process

Your Onboarding Process will take approximately 4-6 weeks to create, revise, and design your new website. This timeline does not include any additional add-ons purchased or broker-dealer compliance approvals. 

During the first revision of your website (the second stage of onboarding), your Onboarding Specialist will book a meeting to discuss what information will be transferred from your old site to new. 

In some cases we are not able to transfer all content identically, however, our Onboarding and Design Teams are dedicated to ensuring your website looks beautiful and is built based on web design best practices. 

You provide your own content for your website, however, we can provide you with templated content for you to update to suit your unique business (i.e. biography template, items to include in your about us section, etc.). 

We also have a Personalized Website Copywriting Add-On where our professional copywriters will revamp and refresh your existing website copy, or, write it from scratch.

You will be provided with a dedicated Onboarding Specialist throughout the creation of your website. They will guide you through the onboarding process and be available for any questions that may arise while building your website.

Once completed, our phenomenal Support Team is available to answer any inquiries you may have about your website. All of our plans include 1hr of support per month and you’re able to reach our Support Team by submitting a ticket, chat or by phone through our Support Portal.

We pride ourselves on creating beautiful and modern websites that are built for optimal conversion! When beginning your onboarding process, pick from our selection of Website Frameworks. From this starting point, your Onboarding Specialist will work with you to personalize your framework to your business aesthetic. 

You will be provided your client log-in at the last stage of the onboarding process. At this time you’ll be able to log-in to your website at any time through our Client Log-In Page.

Yes we do. In the third stage of our onboarding process, we will be able to set up tools and integrations such as Content Auto Publisher, Social Push, Redtail CRM, etc.

If you’re not sure if we integrate with your specific provider, just ask us!

Compliance

Our Compliance Engine streamlines the revision process for advisors who work with regulated firms. When you update your website, our platform creates a ‘shopping cart’ of changes that need to be sent to compliance for approval. Once you have finished editing your site, you simply have to click ‘submit’ to send all the changes to your compliance department. Once your compliance department approves the content, it automatically appears live on your website. It’s that simple! 

We also have our PreApproval Engine. This feature allows your BD to add pre-approved content to their advisors Content Library - which means scheduling your content just got easier! 

We are already set up with leading Broker Dealers. During the final stage of your onboarding process, your Onboarding Specialist will send your website to your BD Compliance Team for approval. It’s that easy!

Additional Services

From time to time we have special offers! Ask our Website Specialists for our current promotion. 

Our team is dedicated to ensuring your success through all of our Website Add-on Packages. In order to ensure this success, we track touch-points depending on what add-on you’ve purchased. We also include follow-up consultations and provide revisions. 

Ultimately our goal is to help financial advisors grow their business, by growing their online presence. Our add-on packages are one way we make this happen! 

Pricing differs depending on which add-on option you choose. Most Add-Ons are one-time fees, however, we have a few ongoing plan options. Take a look at our Add-Ons Page to view their pricing!
