Professional, Legal & Finance — Case Study
core term ranking, ~$48M inbound LOI
A quality-first strategy wins the rare, high-fee clients that matter
A boutique financial advisory firm in a niche, high-fee market engaged Focus Digital to generate qualified, high-net-worth inbound, where a single client can be worth a large fee.
For this firm, quality mattered far more than volume, and buyer discovery increasingly happened through AI search as well as Google.
Focus Digital ranked the firm #1 for its core advisory term, the search its ideal clients use.
Content was optimized for AI search on pre-exit and specialized tax queries, surfacing the firm to founders and executives.
The strategy targeted a small number of high-value clients, attracting inbound such as a founder mid-transaction with a letter of intent worth roughly $48M to him over three years.
The campaign succeeded by optimizing for value, not volume. Owning the core term and appearing in AI search surfaced the rare, high-fee prospects a niche advisory firm depends on.
