It’s with this commitment that Barnum conducted this case study, hoping to uncover pockets of knowledge for our financial advisors and their clients.
This comprehensive study delves into the evolving financial behaviors of American workers across a variety of factors, including generational, house-hold income, gender, and employment status and more!
The Methodology
A 25-question survey was completed by 1,000 U.S. participants. These people ranged in age from 18-70, who were currently employed full-time or part-time with a total annual household income greater than $75,000.
The sample size spanned generations, location and gender. Younger Millennials and Older Millennials matched with 17%, with Gen X leading the way with 28%. Gen Z (20%) and Boomers (19%) were represented in thus study as well.
Gender representation in the study was a near even split — Males at 49% and Females at 51%. The nation featured more participants in the South (37%) and less in the Northeast (18%) with the Midwest (22%) and West (23%) nearly the same.
What We Covered
We explore emerging financial needs and discuss what products and services will be most relevant to working Americans in the next 1-3 years, considering changing economic realities.
We recognize that client pain points are crucial. The study will identify:
Client Frustrations and Fears: What specific anxieties and unmet needs do Americans in the workplaces face when navigating their finances?
Causes of Client Dissatisfaction: We'll analyze products, tools, and features that lead to frustration or a switch to another advisor. By understanding these challenges, Barnum can develop solutions that:
o Address client anxieties and build confidence in financial decisions.
o Simplify financial planning with user-friendly tools and clear communication.
