Establishing expertise on social media: St. James’s Place

Leveraging video content to build industry authority and engage target audiences.

Project overview

Client: St. James’s Place

Industry: financial services & wealth management

Locaction: Sheffield

Project Objective: to position a financial advisor as an industry expert through consistent, informative video content on LinkedIn and social media platforms.

Challenge: create a large volume of engaging, educational videos for social media to be released weekly, while maintaining a fresh and varied presentation across the series.

Our approach

Concept development

We worked closely with the advisor, Angeline, to identify key topics that would resonate with her target audience. Each video was planned to deliver concise, impactful information within 60 seconds, ensuring high engagement on social media.

Production process

Planning: conducted a detailed planning session to outline each video, breaking down the content into 2-3 main bullet points per video to ensure clarity and confidence during filming.

Filming: executed a full-day studio shoot, capturing over 30 videos. To maintain variety, we used different coloured backdrops and had Angeline change outfits, giving the impression of content being filmed over multiple days.

Editing: edited each video to ensure they were polished, engaging, and ready for staggered release over the following months.

Creative elements: careful attention to visual variety and messaging ensured that each video felt fresh, despite being shot in a single day.

The solution

Open House Pictures created over 30 short, impactful videos designed to educate and inform Angeline’s target audience on LinkedIn and other social platforms. By filming in a controlled studio environment, we ensured consistency in quality while presenting Angeline as a knowledgeable and trustworthy expert in her field.

Results

Here’s what our client thought

The results I have seen have literally reshaped my business. 12 months ago if you’d told me that I would be taking on the type of clients that I am today because of the videos that I’ve been posting on Instagram and LinkedIn I wouldn’t have believed you.
