Make your adviser website clear on video

Sizzledraft turns a financial adviser website into a short video ad built from real page screenshots, credentials and plain explanations of its services. The first video is cut from the site alone, while later videos can follow a prompt about a specific service or client need.

Opening lines that work here

  • Not sure if your pension is still on track?

    It starts with a specific concern that retirement planning prospects may already have before introducing the adviser.

  • Financial advice should make your options clearer.

    It reflects the plain explanations people expect when comparing advisers for pensions, investments or later-life planning.

  • Meet the adviser behind your financial plan.

    It gives credentials and professional identity an immediate role in a service where trust matters.

How do I turn my financial adviser website into a video ad?

Sizzledraft opens the adviser website in a headless browser, scrolls the full page and captures real screenshots of sections such as the hero, qualifications, pension services, investment planning and fees. It then uses the site’s own colours, type and visual styling to author a short scene around those assets. The first video is cut from the website alone, so the page needs to state clearly who the adviser helps and what advice is available. Later videos can accept a prompt, such as focusing on retirement planning for business owners. The final file can be vertical at 1080x1920 or horizontal at 1920x1080, rendered at 30fps in H.264.

What should a financial adviser video ad show first?

Lead with one recognisable financial question, then show the adviser’s credentials and explain the relevant service in plain English. A retirement planning ad might open with a pension question, display the firm’s qualifications, and then show how an initial review helps identify gaps. Avoid beginning with a generic office image or a broad claim about wealth. Prospective clients need to understand whether the adviser handles their concern, whether the firm appears credible and what the next step involves. The website hero, accreditation area and strongest service explanation usually provide enough material. Keep fee information readable if it appears, and end with the site’s real booking or contact action rather than adding an unsupported promise.

How do I keep a long adviser website from making a slow ad?

Choose sections by the client question the video must answer. For a pension consolidation ad, the cut may need the hero, pension service explanation, adviser credentials and consultation action, but not separate sections on mortgages, protection and business planning. A full-page capture helps identify every available section, yet the finished ad should not reproduce the whole scroll. Too many service blocks make the pacing feel like a website tour and leave less time for qualifications or a useful explanation. Pick one primary service and one audience for each cut. Later videos can use prompts to direct that choice, such as highlighting inheritance planning for families or cash-flow planning for company directors.

What the browser actually gets

Our browser scrolls the full adviser website and captures the hero, service features, pricing and credential sections as real screenshots. Long marketing pages need careful section picking because including every pension, investment and protection block can make the cut drag.

The common mistake

A common mistake is trying to cover pensions, investments, protection and estate planning in one short ad. Fix it by choosing one client concern, showing the relevant credentials and explaining one clear next step.

  • Explaining pensions, investments or retirement planning quickly without making regulated financial services sound simplistic or vague.
  • Showing qualifications and professional credentials on screen long enough for prospective clients to read them.
  • Choosing the strongest sections from a long adviser website before the video becomes a slow tour of every service.

Questions

Does the video use real screenshots from my adviser website?
Yes. The browser captures the live page, including its hero, adviser credentials, service explanations, pricing or fee information, and contact sections where available. The video scene is authored from those screenshots and the site’s own brand tokens, so the result reflects the actual financial advice website rather than invented client material.
Can I make separate videos for pensions and investments?
Yes. The first video is cut from the website alone, based on the material available on the page. Later videos accept a prompt, so you can request a pension planning cut, an investment advice cut or a video aimed at a defined audience, provided the website contains suitable supporting content.
What video formats can a financial adviser use for ads?
Sizzledraft renders vertical video at 1080x1920 and horizontal video at 1920x1080. Files run at 30fps and use H.264, while audio is normalised to -14 LUFS. The choice depends on where the adviser plans to publish and whether the website screenshots remain readable in the selected layout.
Can the video use a trending sound on a social platform?
A trending sound is handed over as a link so the adviser can attach it natively when publishing. It is not baked into the video file because baked-in audio does not count as using that platform sound. This keeps the sound attached through the platform’s own publishing flow.
