Think tired marketing collateral is all you need to succeed in today's marketplace? Think again!
Marketing increases the brand footprint of a workers' compensation insurance business using a carefully crafted mix of techniques and tactics.
Loss Leaders
The majority of workers' compensation insurance businesses understand that more customers will walk through the door if a few products are priced at less than full retail value. Moreover, a loss leader marketing strategy can compensate for dead periods when customers tend to making purchases. But to be effective, loss leader marketing requires planning, especially in product selection and price points. For workers' compensation insurance businesses, the real benefits of loss leaders emerge through the careful marketing of other products, usually offered at a much higher margin. Whenever possible, piggyback a loss leader approach with the purchase of bulk merchandise that can be bought at a discount.
Strategic Partnerships
Strategic partnerships offer workers' compensation insurance businesses a new approach to the marketplace, rooted in the achievement of shared objectives. Joint ad campaigns, mailings and other marketing initiatives can be conducted on either a short- or long-term basis, as long as each partner is involved in the creation of messaging and has approval authority over the content that is released.
Promotional Calendars
Sloppy marketing programs have no place in growing workers' compensation insurance businesses. Promotional or marketing calendars coordinate the execution of your strategy and result in a more efficient use of both internal and external resources. When used in tandem with a quality mailing list provider, promotional calendars can ensure the continuous execution of direct mail campaigns.
