Pioneering Digital Marketing Campaign in Private Banking
SGPB’s digital marketing campaign sets a precedent in the private banking industry, highlighting the relevance and effectiveness of digital strategies even among its niche target of wealthy clients. Since January 2022, a promising lead acquisition digital marketing campaign has been initiated, encompassing two distinct actions:
Keyword Buying Campaign on Google: This innovative approach scrupulously selects keywords related to queries identified by Google, ensuring visibility among potential clients. Clicking on SGPB’s advertisement redirects customers to a contact form, presenting them with the global expertise of the private bank.
Lead Generation Campaign on LinkedIn: Utilising LinkedIn, SGPB adapts messages according to a target audience defined by their experts and LinkedIn itself. Interested respondents are directed to a form that enables them to contact SGPB if they wish.
The digital campaign’s promising results, including 130,000 visitors to the website, 3134 forms filled in, and 23 new customers acquiring 173M€ AUM, demonstrate its efficacy. The strategy also contradicts the common belief that wealthy clients avoid online mediums for financial inquiries.
What sets SGPB’s campaign apart is the careful integration with its content strategy. Since the launch of their revamped website, privatebanking.societegenerale. com, in December 2019, a content strategy has been implemented, featuring articles, interviews, videos, podcasts, and more. These materials cover various topics from Wealth Planning to Real Estate, Economics, Private Equity, and more, thus driving traffic and engagement.
Furthermore, continuous SEO optimization since mid-2021, lead generation on LinkedIn, and exploring new avenues of development are expected to drive further success. Future plans include extending the campaign to wider geographical areas and possibly to the UK’s private bank, SG Kleinwort Hambros, by late 2023/early 2024.
Societe Generale Private Banking stands as a beacon in the world of private banking, with its unparalleled expertise in structured products and groundbreaking digital marketing initiatives. These achievements underscore SGPB’s commitment to innovation and responsiveness, reflecting its ability to blend traditional banking excellence with modern marketing strategies. It sets an inspiring example for the financial industry, proving that adapting to digital trends is not only possible but profitable and sustainable.
