The Challenge

Common customer follow-up automation challenges facing financial services businesses.

Annual reviews fall overdue because the client service team relies on manual diary entries and Excel trackers to schedule reviews for hundreds of clients.

Advisers implement advice and move on to the next client, with no systematic follow-up to ensure the client understands what was done and is satisfied with the outcome.

Regulatory changes that affect client portfolios require urgent communication but the practice has no mechanism to quickly identify and contact the affected segment.

ASIC ongoing advice obligations require demonstrable value delivery between reviews, but the practice cannot evidence consistent client engagement throughout the year.

Implementation

How we implement customer follow-up automation for your financial services business.

Post-Advice Follow-up Sequences

After a Statement of Advice is presented and implemented, clients receive a structured follow-up sequence confirming actions taken, explaining next steps, and checking satisfaction. All communications are AFSL-compliant.

✓ Tools: Make, XPLAN, Mailchimp

Annual Review Preparation

Ninety days before a client annual review date, an automated workflow triggers preparation steps: portfolio performance summary, life event check-in survey, and meeting booking link.

✓ Tools: Make, XPLAN, Google Calendar

Regulatory and Market Updates

When significant regulatory changes occur (superannuation caps, tax thresholds, Centrelink changes), affected client segments receive a timely, compliant update explaining the impact and next steps.

✓ Tools: Make, Mailchimp, XPLAN

Referral Programme with Compliance Guardrails

Clients who respond positively to satisfaction surveys receive a referral request that complies with ASIC best interest requirements. Referral outcomes are tracked from introduction through to client onboarding.

✓ Tools: Make, HubSpot, XPLAN
