Nicole Gopoian Wirick is the President of Prosperity Wealth Strategies, an RIA based out of Michigan that oversees $70 million in assets under management for 40 households. What’s unique about Nicole is how she hired a branding consultant early on to develop a clear brand identity that reflects her financial planning philosophy and resonates with her ideal clients. This brand now acts as a filter for deciding which marketing opportunities are worth pursuing, helping her stay focused and aligned.

Listen in as Nicole shares how she developed a distinct brand identity by first exploring her ideal lifestyle and values, leading to a “brand DNA” that shapes everything from her marketing to her client experience. She explains how this branding attracts clients seeking deep financial planning around estate and legacy issues, and how she built trust and referrals by nurturing relationships with centers of influence and delivering personalized, planning-led advice. Nicole also reflects on evolving her brand as she grows her team, presenting recommendations through client-friendly summaries, and staying motivated during her transition to independence by focusing on meaningful progress over metrics.
