Marketers Most Critical Challenges:
Brand equity
Given the low velocity decision-making process for insurance, measuring brand equity impacts alongside short-term effects is important. Achieving a balance between short-term campaigns and brand messaging aimed at creating a lasting impact on brand equity, will ultimately have a positive impact on insurance quotes in the long-term.
Timing
Given the seasonal nature of some insurance products, advertising at specific times in a calendar year can make a significant difference on quotes and revenue. Marketing mix models can inform seasonal patterns and advise on optimal spends.
Customers
Acquiring new customers can be expensive in the insurance industry, making customer retention crucial for long-term profitability. Marketers must focus on both attracting new customers and nurturing existing relationships through personalized communication and tailored offerings.
Digital
The rise of digital technology has transformed consumer expectations and disrupted traditional distribution channels. Marketers must adapt to these changes by investing in digital marketing strategies, enhancing online user experiences, and leveraging data analytics to target and engage customers effectively.
Partner spend
Insurance companies often spend directly on marketing but also leverage partners. Understanding the impact of own vs partner spend to optimally allocate budgets is an area that marketing mix models can inform.
