How does a social media assistant work for advisors?
Advisor social media is constrained by the SEC Marketing Rule, FINRA Rule 2210 where it applies and your firm's own policy, which is exactly why it needs a careful person rather than an enthusiastic one. Your AssistBPO assistant builds a monthly content calendar with you and your compliance officer, drafts posts from your approved library and the advisor's plain-English explanations of planning topics, designs graphics in Canva from your brand kit, submits every post for pre-approval, schedules through your archiving-connected tool, monitors comments and messages, routes anything resembling a client question or complaint to the advisor and compliance, and reports monthly on reach, followers and inquiries. No performance claims, no testimonials without required disclosures, no engagement tricks.
