‘Free will’ can be a nice hook to engage colder audiences. But often means users use the free will offer and then don’t leave a gift to charity. We want to create content that uses free will as a hook to engage people but encourages money minded individuals to leave a gift in their will by educating them about the tax benefits of doing so.
A free online will writing service.
Guardian Angel is a tech for good company created to make the experience of losing someone easier. It was founded after our founder Sam who lost his Mum suddenly in 2016. He experienced first-hand the chaos caused by the absence of a plan when someone dies. It made one of the toughest times in his life even tougher than it needed to be. Guardian Angel was created to make the experience of loss that little bit easier for those left behind.
One of the ways we do this is through our proactive planning tools, including our online will.
One of the ways we distribute our online wills is via our 200+ charity partners. Gifts in wills make up a significant portion of charities income and our online tool help charities offer a clear call to action in the form of a free will writing service.
In Sept-Oct, 2023 weʼre running a campaign for our charity partners to help them promote legacy giving via gift in wills. We will be testing paid social ads across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok to encourage our charities potential supporters to leave a gift in their will using our online will writing service.
