Unlocking Compliance & Scale with Financial Services Marketing Automation

In the highly regulated financial services sector, marketers face a dual challenge: deliver personalized, omnichannel experiences that drive engagement and revenue, while ensuring every campaign is compliant, secure, and scalable. Without the right infrastructure, this is nearly impossible. That’s why financial services marketing automation has emerged as a game-changer.

At The Marek Group, we understand the pressure marketing leaders face in this industry. You need to scale your outreach across branches, teams, and geographies without sacrificing compliance or operational control. Our marketing automation approach—centered around the Triptych platform—removes the friction between marketing, compliance, and sales enablement.

Why Financial Services Need Marketing Automation

Marketing teams at financial institutions are often bogged down by manual processes: requesting approvals, customizing materials for advisors, and navigating fragmented vendor ecosystems. These inefficiencies create compliance risks, delay campaigns, and prevent scale. Automation solves these issues by:

• Empowering field teams with on-demand access to pre-approved, customizable materials

• Automating compliance controls and audit trails

• Integrating digital, direct mail, and in-branch communications through a unified platform

Case in Point: Baird’s Marketing Transformation

Baird, a leading wealth management firm with over 1,500 advisors, faced the same hurdles. They turned to Marek’s Triptych platform to unify sales enablement and marketing operations. The results speak volumes:

• 2,480 active Triptych users

• Over 6,200 personalized content pieces generated annually

• An estimated 2,000 hours in marketing support saved each year (equal to 1 FTE)

• Continued growth in download activity year-over-year

With marketing automation, Baird cut the time to deliver compliant content from days to minutes.
