Digital Insurer's Comments
An insurer’s ability to align distribution channels with the company’s sales objectives in a landscape dominated by web, mobile and social, forms a key competitive advantage.Most carriers want to designing their distribution strategies around a multi-channel approach to meet customer expectations, but multi-channel is easier said than done. Siloed legacy systems (limiting data flow), data complexities, technological intricacies and enhanced distribution costs all get in the way. Insurers require a holistic view of their distribution architecture to help visualise volume, speed and variety of customer interactions happening across channels and markets.
We believe the integration of analytics in distribution channel management is the key to visualising customer interactions in real-time, leading to superior customer engagement and optimal sales efficiency.
