The Report’s Mission
The 2022 Client Experience Report is the first time we’ve undertaken a full scale analysis of the prospect and client reviews on VouchedFor.co.uk. Using 1 million+ data points from 250,000+ reviews, we’ve identified the key factors that create great client experiences and grow advice businesses. It’s the most comprehensive analysis of client experience ever undertaken in the UK advice industry.
We’re making our findings available through this report and also through our Elevation platform with a view to helping advice firms deliver consistently brilliant experiences for their clients. As well as meet their Consumer Duty responsibilities.
There are significant commercial benefits to getting this stuff right. There are important societal benefits too. Millions of people defer or completely ignore financial advice, often at a significant cost to their wellbeing.
If implemented, the insights in this report should help generate better outcomes for those considering advice, as well as existing clients.
We hope you find the report valuable and welcome any feedback.
