Wells Fargo provides banking, mortgage, investing, credit card, insurance, and customer and commercial financial services nationwide. But it also aims to help small business owners grow and manage their ventures.
To target this valuable group, Wells Fargo looked for key needs. Research yielded an answer: Many small business owners need help creating a successful business plan. So the Wells Fargo Small Business group partnered with Imagination to launch the online Business Plan Center.
The Business Plan Center includes 50 exclusive content pieces. Articles, slideshows, videos with third-party influencers and infographics tackle the biggest needs in business planning, from funding sources to marketing budgets. Free continuing education tools round out the mix. Users can assess their competition through the Competitive Intelligence Tool and craft their company strategy with the Business Plan Tool.

Site visits, engagement, content-specific engagement and conversions all have increased with the addition of the Business Plan Center. As a result of successful and measurable engagement with small business owners, the Business Plan Center earned the Silver Award from the Content Council in the 2015 Pearl Awards.
Videos blend both real customer examples and practical how-to knowledge.
Wells Fargo Business Plan Center content serves mobile users with multiple content types.
Videos offer users actionable info—a key tenet of the overall content strategy.
