For advisers
Join the collective
Independent advisers in the Greater Newcastle region: grow your visibility, support each other’s businesses, and be part of a referral network that’s built on partnership—not legal ties.
Why join?
The collective is designed to benefit every participating adviser. You keep full independence—your AFSL, your clients, your brand—while gaining shared digital presence, local search visibility, and a trusted referral network. It’s a mutually beneficial partnership that strengthens each practice without merging them.
Better digital exposure
One coordinated site helps you show up when clients search for “financial adviser near me” or suburb-specific advice. Shared content and local pages support ongoing search visibility for your area.
Referral network
When a client is better suited to another member’s specialty or location, you can refer with confidence. The collective fosters a culture of supporting each other’s businesses and sharing opportunities.
Partnership, not merger
There is no shared AFSL, no pooled revenue, and no legal merger. You remain your own entity. The collective is a cooperative: we support each other’s growth and visibility while keeping compliance and operations clearly separate.
Support each other, grow together
The idea is simple: independent practices that choose to support one another. Referrals are made in the best interest of the client, with clear disclosure. You gain a network of like-minded professionals across the region—each running their own business, each benefiting from a shared front door for local clients. The principal and founding members are committed to making the collective a genuine benefit to every partner’s business and digital presence.
If you’re an authorised representative or practice principal in the Greater Newcastle area and want to explore joining, we’d like to hear from you.
