The problem

Accountants and business owners refer the finance brokers they keep seeing, and LinkedIn is where they see them. If 2 brokers each post twice a week and the firm's page posts twice, that's 6 posts a week; at 25 minutes each, 150 minutes a week, about 10.75 hours a month.

What the AI does

Buffer schedules posts to LinkedIn pages and profiles. Its AI Assistant helps refine and repurpose drafts, and the Team plan adds approval workflows, so one person drafts and another approves before anything is published. Write deal stories (with the client's written permission), lender news and plain explanations of how asset finance works, and keep rates and approval claims out of them.

A worked example

A two-broker firm in Leeds posts to its LinkedIn page and both brokers' profiles. One broker drafts a fortnight of posts in Buffer, the other approves them on the Team plan, and Buffer publishes them.

Before

25 minutes to write and post each of 6 posts a week: about 10.75 hours a month

After

About 3 hours a month drafting and approving in batches

What it's worth

About $412£310€369A$595C$583 a month in broker time, against about $31£23€27A$44C$43 for Buffer. That is 7.75 hours saved at an assumed $53£40€48A$77C$75 an hour. Team is $10 (about $11£8€10A$15C$15) per channel a month billed yearly, so 3 channels is $30 (about $31£23€27A$44C$43); the page shows no monthly-billing price, so month to month will cost more.

How to set it up

  1. Connect the firm's LinkedIn page and each broker's profile to Buffer on the Team plan.
  2. Agree a list of post types and a rule: no rates, no 'guaranteed approval', no client names without written permission.
  3. Draft a fortnight of posts in one sitting and use the AI Assistant to tighten them.
  4. The second broker approves each post in Buffer's approval workflow before it is scheduled.
  5. Keep approved posts and client permissions on file.

What goes wrong

  • A post promoting regulated credit to sole traders or partnerships is a financial promotion under FCA rules, and the FCA's guidance on social media covers posts on personal profiles too.
  • Claims like 'fast approval' or 'any credit history' mislead. Say what you actually do.
  • AI drafts can invent a figure or sound generic. Check every number and rewrite in your own voice.
  • Buffer prices per channel, so each extra profile adds $10 (about $11£8€10A$15C$15) a month.
