MAK GUD Financial Services on desktop and mobile
Overview
A marketing website for a UK independent financial advisory firm. The firm works in financial restructuring, distressed asset management, corporate finance, and debt advisory.
MAK GUD Financial Services advises on financial restructuring, distressed asset management, corporate finance and debt. That work is bought on trust. The prospect is usually comparing several firms at once. So the site has one job: make specialist expertise clear, fast.
The challenge
Advisory work is bought on trust. The site had to show specialist expertise clearly to prospects comparing several firms.
Advisory firms tend to describe themselves in language only other advisers parse. It reads as credible to peers. It says very little to the person deciding who to call. That person is usually short of time, reading three firms' sites in one sitting.
What we built
Structured the site around the firm's specialisms, so each service can be found on its own terms. The structure is shared with the sister company site.
We structured the site around the advisory practices. A visitor finds the one matching their situation without reading everything else first. Experience and approach are stated plainly rather than asserted. A contact route sits at every point where a reader might decide they have seen enough.
- Site structured around the distinct advisory practices
- Plain statement of experience and approach
- Contact route available from every section
- Conventions shared with the sister company site
- Responsive layouts checked at phone width first

MAK GUD Financial Services FAQs
Because that is how a prospect arrives. Somebody facing a restructuring is not browsing an advisory firm in general, they are looking for the specific practice that matches their situation.
By being specific. Name the practices, the markets covered and the experience behind them. That does more than a claim about being trusted or leading. Every competitor makes those claims too.
The structure takes new practices and new material without rework, which matters for a firm whose offer widens as the client base does.
