Audience overview in Riftjaw with daily audience, new contacts and most engaged people

Selling their own specialist services to financial advisers

Financial advice firms are mostly small practices with a few advisers and paraplanners, sometimes part of a larger network. They are regulated, cautious buyers who choose tools and partners that support client trust and compliance.

Freelancers usually find work through their network, job platforms and word of mouth, which makes income uneven. A small lead database of your own gives you a steady list of companies to approach when the pipeline runs dry.

The financial advisers that need their own specialist services are listed publicly. What most freelancers lack is a list they own, with the right fields, that shows who was already contacted.

What freelancers run into with financial advisers

Outreach tools charge per credit or per seat, which is hard to justify on a freelance budget.

Riftjaw has no credits and a free plan to start, so you can build your first list without a card.

You forget who you emailed last month and risk writing to the same company twice.

Every contact has a status and a history of every mail, so you see at a glance who heard from you.

Adviser registers include many individuals at the same firm.

Use the firm website as the key field so one firm is one record, with advisers in notes or fields.

Advisers want to know how their data is handled.

Each account runs on its own private server, and you can export or delete a record on request.

Questions people ask

Can I import a list of advisers from a public register?

Yes, if you collect it yourself as a CSV or Excel file. Riftjaw maps the columns and flags duplicates, but it does not crawl the register for you.

How do I handle an adviser who asks to be removed?

Mark the contact as unsubscribed. It goes into the opt-out register and is skipped by every future campaign.

How do I get email addresses for financial advisers in your area?

If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as info@, enquiries@, advice@ and office@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.

Is it free to start?

Yes. The Free plan runs the whole pipeline on one list with small campaigns, and you do not need a credit card. Move to Pro when you want more lists, segments and bigger campaigns.
