Challenge

Harrison Wallace Financial Group (HWFG) is a leading financial services firm that helps entrepreneurs, executives, self-made millionaires, and generations of families meet their financial goals. While the firm is well known in their local market, the company’s wealth advisor lacked visibility on a national stage. HWFG engaged the agency to help drive top tier media attention with the goal of elevating the firm’s Founder & CEO, Faron Daugs, as a leading authority on personal finance and to generate interest from potential clients — specifically high-net-worth individuals. 

Solution

Utilizing the agency’s Interviewed Technology, the team collaborated with Faron on timely financial news hooks and unique story ideas that garnered national and trade media coverage. ​The team proactively pitched Faron as an expert resource and CFP with 30 years of experience to help reporters more effectively cover topics related to personal finance, financial and retirement planning, investing, the U.S. markets and economy. The team also leveraged HWFG company news, monthly economic indicators and market movements to help shape direction of storylines.​ With hundreds of media opportunities under his belt, Faron is regarded as a high-profile subject matter expert and trusted thought leader by top tier journalists thanks to the team’s efforts.
