Created in Fidelity Labs, Catchlight helps financial advisors grow their business by focusing on two simple, yet crucial questions: which prospect should I call next and what might they be interested in. Catchlight can gather up to 2,000 data points on a prospect. These data points can lead to insights which highlight specific needs or interests of a prospect, making it simpler for the advisor to act, saving time and driving 2-3x improvement in conversion.
