Third-party hedge fund marketing built for SEC-compliant institutional capital

Third-party hedge fund marketing is when a fund engages an external partner to handle institutional investor acquisition, capital introduction, and marketing infrastructure rather than building it in-house. Empire325 acts as that third-party marketing partner — building investor pipeline, institutional digital presence, and conversion systems while the fund's principals focus on portfolio management.

Yes. Hedge fund marketing in the US is governed by SEC rules including Regulation D (Rule 506(b) and 506(c)), the Marketing Rule (Rule 206(4)-1 effective 2022), and FINRA rules where applicable. Empire325's approach is compliance-aware: every campaign respects accredited-investor verification, performance-claim restrictions, and disclosure requirements. We work alongside fund counsel rather than around them.

Multi-channel: (1) accredited-investor digital acquisition through compliance-aware paid and organic channels, (2) institutional presence development across web, content, and outreach infrastructure, (3) systematic outreach programs targeting family offices, RIAs, fund-of-funds, and pension consultants, (4) PR and thought leadership positioning the fund's edge.

Empire325 has worked with funds ranging from $30M to $1B+ AUM. Engagements typically run $15K-$60K monthly for ongoing investor acquisition infrastructure. We provide written scoping after a discovery call.
