Case Study
Summary
The appeal and referrals to CBA Financial Planning had been in decline for years, and with a new legislative pricing model coming in place, it was only set to get worse. Yet despite facing our most challenging context yet, we managed to turn the tides and see growth for the time in four years. We shifted the appeal of our advice against our entire customer base and resonated with a new and valuable audience who previously never looked our way. We achieved all this first and foremost through internal behaviour change. By simply thinking and acting differently. The advertising that followed helped further fuel this success and spread our new promise of new value.
