Continuum Financial Advice Women's Research
Continuum, a national financial advice firm, published survey research of 2,181 UK adults highlighting that women are now slightly more likely than men to seek independent financial advice (20% vs 19%) and feel less financially secure (43% vs 49%). The firm used original data to generate media coverage about gender differences in financial advice-seeking and security.
Why it worked: It flipped an expected stereotype with fresh, proprietary polling showing women overtaking men, giving journalists a clean, counterintuitive headline and timely stat.
The lesson: Consider fielding a quick-replicate poll that upends a common assumption by a single percentage point—then pitch the sharpest, simplest headline.
