Vision IFP

Vision Independent Financial Planning (Vision IFP) is an independent financial advice network with its head office based in Falmouth, Cornwall. We have partnered with Vision for over a decade, and it is a pleasure to present their latest website which was launched at their 2023 annual conference.

Brief

"We want a new website which is very modern. Most Adviser networks and Adviser sites are very traditional and dated. Vision is a unique Adviser network and therefore we want a website which represents us – a unique company.”

Vision's old website was launched in 2012 by Channel, and while the design had aged well, it was definitely time for an update. The new brief was to create a clear and concise website that focused on the business proposition for their advisers and clearly delineated between attracting advisers, and clients looking for financial advice.

The result is a modern design that gives a boutique experience for the user and highlights their award-winning services, bespoke technology, and superior network.

Technology

The new website is built on WordPress, an open source content management system, which allows Vision to update the site themselves. It is also mobile friendly with a fully responsive template and a 100% score on accessibility.

Vision Advisers Websites

In addition to their main website, all Vision advisers, as part of the network, are offered a business website through a central WordPress multisite. Now with over a quarter of their advisers taking advantage of this setup, they are enjoying many advantages, including:

• Efficiency: Saving time and money creating new websites from one multisite installation.
• Compliance: A streamlined process of content creation, sign-off, and development ensures all compliance is followed, and the advisers are closely supported during this process.
• Security: WordPress multi-sites can help with security as all the updates and patches are done in the central location.
• Peace of mind: Advisers can relax knowing that their websites are looked after and up to date.
• Updated content: Regular Vision financial reports are uploaded onto all advisers' websites keeping them fresh with new content.

Feedback from Vision

“Thank you again for the support and top work on the website. We have been overwhelmed with positive feedback and the CEO is extremely happy.” - Sam Fidock, Network Development Manager

We are delighted with the new Vision IFP website and believe it is a valuable asset to the network. It is a modern, user-friendly website that clearly communicates the value of Vision's services to both advisers and clients. We look forward to working with Vision on future projects.  Visit the Vision website here.
