2025 social trends every SJP adviser should know
- Video and carousels win the algorithm – LinkedIn’s latest benchmark study shows multi-image posts average 6.6 % engagement, the highest of any format, with video close behind.
- Trust beats polish – Audiences engage more with authentic business or personal adviser stories than sterile market updates.
Personal brands power practice growth – SJP Partners who show up as people, not logos, earn more leads and referrals.
Where traditional workflows fall short
Bottleneck |

Manual ideation |
Last-minute posts recycle the same market graphs, blending into the crowd. |
Platform juggling |
LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram each need different formats – a time sink. |

The new 50-20-15-15 content mix
Modern data shows audiences reward variety. Aim for:
- 50 % thought-leadership value – explainer videos, myth-busting carousels, market-context threads.
- 20 % community – team charity days, photos from client seminars, stories that humanise the brand.
- 15 % curated insight – share timely articles from FCA, FT Adviser or Money Marketing, adding your own take.
- 15 % promotion – webinar invites, service spotlights, client stories and testimonials.
Bottom line: start with this split, track engagement, then adjust. The dial your audience loves is the dial that converts likes into enquiries.
How to track what content is getting results
It’s easy to track your stats via your social media platforms.
- LinkedIn Page Analytics – impressions, clicks, followers and the vital engagement rate by post type.
- Meta Business Suite – reach and link clicks for Facebook and Instagram, plus Reel plays.
- Instagram Insights – saves, shares and profile visits, perfect for judging carousel or video stickiness.
We recommend reviewing these monthly and looking for trends: does thought-leadership beat community posts for comments? Are curated-insight posts sending traffic to your website? Use your findings to tweak your schedule accordingly and watch engagement climb.
