Which channel brought the last three clients in Fintech?
If you lead a Financial Services and Fintech firm, this is about marketing technology that shows what works.
You run five channels. Paid, content, events, LinkedIn, maybe a podcast. Financial Services and Fintech buyers research you for weeks before they call. But you cannot see which channel brought the last three clients. So the budget gets cut across the board, or it does not get cut at all.
B2B attribution is never a clean line from ad to client. That is doubly true in Financial Services and Fintech. A buyer may read your site, search your firm, check LinkedIn, ask an AI assistant, and then sit on it for a month. Your system often credits the last click. That hides the channel that first made you credible. So you fund the wrong thing and starve the right one.
The fix is smaller than most leaders fear. You need source tracking on every opportunity, one simple question in every new client conversation, and a dashboard you check weekly. The job gets bigger if your system is messy or sales will not log what they heard. It gets smaller if your lead forms and CRM are already in order. Financial services firms usually have some of this data already, even without new tools. It is just not connected. Scope depends on that, not on some expensive overhaul.
This week, add one required field to every opportunity: how did you hear about us. Then have the person who closes the client ask the same question out loud and write the answer. Do not wait for perfect data. Do not cut every channel evenly. When a source shows up in both your system and the client's answer, fund it. If you want that set up without a long internal fight, SliiceXR can do it.
You will not get a perfect scorecard. You will get something better: the same two or three channels showing up again and again. Leadership sees it. Budget moves with the evidence instead of opinion. That is enough to keep the channels that bring financial clients and stop paying for noise.
What our customers say
"Catherine was instrumental in establishing our website. Of greater import, she greatly aided us in gaining market awareness and capitalizing on the market recognition we already had. Besides the website, Catherine hosted a weekly podcast wherein we shared our views and insights regarding significant developments in our industry and their short- and long-term implications for our business and our clients."
"Catherine has been a core part of LifeActive Bio for the past five years. From the beginning, I was impressed by her trustworthiness, creativity, discipline, and exceptional marketing expertise. She has brought strategic thinking and original ideas to our PR, marketing, campaign strategy, channel development, and client initiatives, with a unique ability to see challenges from multiple dimensions. Catherine is one of the most professional marketing visionaries I’ve encountered, and her creativity is beyond compare. Her passion for art is reflected in the originality she brings to everything she does. Catherine is an incredibly valued member of our team."
"Catherine built my website, then rebuilt it as my consulting thesis sharpened. Each time, she turned a moving target into a brand that showcases my work. She has a gift for taking an idea I only half articulate and giving it a clear, modern, confident form. What I did not expect was how much I would enjoy the process: she is generous with her talent, quick to champion my success as if it were her own, and somewhere along the way she went from collaborator to friend. Working with Catherine is one of the easiest and happiest yeses in my business."
"Catherine and the Team at SliiceXR are excellent to work with. They took the time to understand our needs, and execute our vision. Their constant support and patience in designing and adjusting a website that works for both our customers and employees has helped transform our business."
"I consider myself very fortunate to work with Catherine Oaks over the past few months. Catherine is unique in her ability to develop effective marketing strategies and a roadmap to get you there. Catherine is extremely professional and yet very personable and easy to work with. She personally goes the extra mile to work through issues that may crop up and she does not quit until a solution is found and implemented."
"I needed a website that captured me: a wicked combination of high energy, fun, and function. Catherine nailed it! LizGoodgold.com is crystal clear in its messaging and target thanks to Sliice Marketing; she bit into this project whole-heartedly and delivered. When you're ready for your website makeover, call Catherine!"
