Financial Industry Marketing Insights

Understand How Consumers Discover Financial Institutions Today

The financial services industry is undergoing a rapid transformation in how consumers research, evaluate, and select providers. Today’s journey often begins online instead of in a branch. From search engines comparisons to reviews, educational content, and mobile experiences, financial decisions are increasingly influenced by digital discovery and trust signals.

Most financial consumers start their research online. In fact, 90% of loan and mortgage consumers, 85% of check cashing consumers, and 76% of tax return preparation consumers start their journey with an online search.

Proven Results for Financial Institutions

Real Outcomes That Drive Growth

Marketing only works if it leads to real results. For financial institutions, that means more qualified applications, lower acquisition costs, and better visibility into what is actually working.

Lower Cost per Loan Application for a Mortgage Lender

A national mortgage lender was investing heavily in digital marketing that generated traffic but could not confidently understand which channels were driving results.

We rebuilt their paid media strategy around how borrowers actually search for loans, focusing on high-intent keywords, improving targeting, and creating a clearer path from search to application.

Performance Highlights:

  • Drastically reduced cost per application
  • Increased click-through rate over 8% in the first 60 days
  • Generated 250 to 400 qualified applications per month
  • Increased website leads 30% year-over-year

This gave the client a clear understanding of what was working and allowed them to scale with confidence.

Financial Services Partnership for Recruitment

Another financial client was getting traffic but struggling to turn that interest into completed applications. Customers were dropping off before finishing the process, so KeyMedia Solutions strategies focused on boosting new applications and the client’s overall job pool.

We focused on improving how users moved from ad to application by refining messaging, aligning it with search intent, and simplifying the application experience. Resulting in more applications and enhanced recruitment marketing.

Performance Highlights:

  • A significant increase in total applications and hired applicants.
  • A 76% rise in applications and 94 more hires from small towns.
  • Increase in applicants from communities with populations under 20,000 from 29% to 47%.
  • Reduced drop-off in the application process.
