Hyper Pony Studio 
Digital marketing for the financial services industry

I ran across a guy on here recently who was ALSO a web design expert for financial advisors.

I checked him out and he had taken my tagline and a good chunk of my LinkedIn profile and used it as his own.

Okay - that sucks - but that's not the real problem.

I checked out his work history.

👉 Two months ago he was a car mechanic.

👉 He has NO web design experience.

👉 NO financial services industry experience.

I'd hardly call him an "expert"

🔻 🔻 🔻

You don't have to hire me.

But, please - do a little research before you hire a web or marketing professional.

I talk to WAY too many advisors who paid a lot of money for nothing.

Anybody can say they are an expert in anything on LinkedIn.

Just like on Facebook, there is no fact checking here.

🔻 🔻 🔻

And to be clear, there is NOTHING wrong with switching gears and starting a new career. But be honest about your experience. That whole fake-it-till-you-make-it thing is BS and completely unfair to your paying clients.

👑 Marketing Overhauls for Financial Advisors & RIAs 👉 Sharing digital marketing tips

Quick question - how do I get LI to STOP notifying me every time anyone (everyone!) posts, and START notifying me when someone mentions me or leaves a comment on one of my posts?

I know it goes again everyone's better advice, but I prefer to scroll the feed rather than work my way through posts via my notifications. 

It's a better experience for me, and my feed does a pretty good job of featuring my friends at the top.

Now I just need to get a handle on my million useless notifications! And it would be nice if it WOULD notify me when someone is actually talking to me 🤔

- - - - - 

This is one of my new focuses in 2025 - creating streamlined processes for everything to save time and make life easier.

My LI settings are leaving a lot to be desired though. Doesn't look like I have much control - I'm hoping I'm missing something!

I owe a large part of my business success to finding my niche.

So, why did I choose Financial Advisors?

Out of all possible niches?

They are a good match for ME.

👉 I’ve spent 17 years (yikes!) in financial services and have a solid understanding of the industry and the compliance regulations around it.

👉 I love helping people who help people. It makes me feel good to know that I am working with people who are making life better for others.

👉 I like working with busy people who know the value of an expert and trust me to do my job.

👉 Advisors are VERY passionate about their businesses. This means they are EXCITED for their projects and that makes my work a lot more fun.

👉 Advisors are responsible, timely, and responsive – I’m never waiting on them for anything.

👉 Advisors are black and white - they know what they think and they tell me directly (I love that!).

👉 Advisors are smart and they appreciate (and are interested in!) the strategy that goes into the work I do for them.

👉 Advisors are tech-savvy and have no issues logging into a client portal, uploading files to Dropbox, or providing feedback inside of a PDF.

👉 Advisors are good people who go above and beyond for their clients - making them VERY pleasant to work with.

I never (ever ever) thought I’d be working with advisors.

I have a marketing and design degree - not a finance education. 

But I work with some of the MOST lovely people and I consider myself VERY lucky!!!

Thank you to all of the advisors who have trusted me with their projects!

Do YOU have a niche?!?

What made you choose them?

I absolutely LOVED working on the 1102 Partners, LLC rebrand and website with you, David and Judy Maley! Thanks so much for your very kind words!!

Chief Investment Officer, 1102 Partners, LLC | Personalized Wealth Management with Family Office Level Care | We provide the investment expertise of a large institution with the attention of a family office

1102 Partners, LLC's new website www.1102partners.com has received numerous compliments from our clients and others since we went live a few short weeks ago. A big thank you to Manda Szewczyk and Hyper Pony Studio Web Design for an easy process and an outstanding product!

Manda and I knew each other from a previous employer, so Judy Maley and I were confident in her abilities, but she did a better job than we hoped or expected. By diving deep into our unique practice, Manda came up with designs, writing and photo choices that captured us perfectly.

We would recommend Manda and Hyper Pony to anyone creating a new website or looking to refresh their brand.

Judy and I are grateful for her insights and thrilled with the result!
