Initiating a Digital Scan is an effortless first step in creating a more personalized marketing and communication strategy. The behaviorally enriched data it provides can tell a story with much more precision than the flow of money alone. It generates actionable behavioral intelligence to improve engagement, performance, and client relationships…all of which directly tie into revenue potential.
With no effort by your staff or end user, a Digital Scan gives you a head start in building a productive relationship with leads, prospects, and clients. Our system produces results with a psychometric reliability of 75% to 80% using a person’s digital footprint alone. At any stage, those results can be increased to 97.1% with participation in the questionnaire-driven Full Scan discovery process to gain an even deeper understanding of an individual.
In a recent project, we used this groundbreaking Digital Scan technology to identify marketing personas of an entire business to better understand the influences driving wealth management and insurance revenue for the firm. We scanned 22,000 clients, over 500 financial advisors, and 11 executives to gather the data needed for our analysis. The resultant financial behavior analytics provided vital information the client can now use to direct their sales and marketing efforts.
If you look at the graph above, you can see that we plotted people into four distinct behavioral marketing personas. These personas are similar to DNA unique styles, but the categories are broader to simplify their application to a firm’s marketing strategy. It’s important to note the behavioral biases that are often present in these personas.
Behavioral Marketing Personas and Their Common Biases
The firm in our study provided revenue data which we then overlaid with our own insights. For each behavioral marketing persona, we were able to show them the related insurance revenue that was generated. This statistical modeling proves that a person’s risk behavior score directly correlates with insurance revenue, which gives the firm information they can act on. It’s an incredible advantage because now they know who to target with which products, and how to best communicate with them.
According to a HubSpot study, 96% of marketers report that personalization boosts the chances of repeat purchases, while 94% say it leads to higher sales.
They learned that the more cautious “Planned” clients tended to purchase more insurance and wealth services. So, they are more likely to sign up for a full collision policy or maybe more liability insurance versus somebody who's more take charge or outgoing and willing to live with those losses.
It was also noted that most of the firm’s advisors and executives exhibited more risk-taking behaviors compared to their clients. This discrepancy could adversely affect communication efforts and how services are offered to clients, but this knowledge gives them the insight needed to make the necessary adjustments.
“In the financial services industry, our research reveals that advisors and clients share only a 21% alignment in behavioral styles.”

Building Customized Client Experiences
Digital Scan results segment each client and prospect so employees and advisors can better understand the people they interact with and provide customized experiences. It provides an unbiased measurement to quickly and reliably predict their natural behavior traits which you can then use to start building a connection.
First, Run a Digital Scan to Predict…
The Digital Scan results can be used to develop a more robust hyper-personalization strategy. That starts with having the right mindset at the top of the organization and ends with knowing and engaging each client so that more precise solutions can be offered.
Then, Build an Effective Hyper-Personalization Strategy That Includes:
Firms can use behavioral insights to improve client engagement, adjust messaging, and refine service strategies. They will know whether to call, text, email, or set up a Zoom meeting. Once engaged, they will know if they should share their camera or screen, move quickly or be patient and slow-moving, and how to move them on to the next steps in the sales process. This gives them the best shot at securing new clients, upselling or cross-selling products and services, and sustaining long-term, revenue-producing relationships.
With our AI-assisted technology, we can get your hyper-personalization mission off to a running start. We can isolate specific groups within your organization to help direct sales and marketing efforts. Financial behavior insights can be used to contextualize any deep data set, including predicted life and financial events, which enables you to design and offer even more precise solutions.
Imagine the possibilities! You can transform your organization from product-centered to client-centered in every action, process, and decision. The "behavioralizing" of the data can help you re-engage legacy clients, connect with prospects, grow existing client relationships, and, of course, make money in the process.
