Listen to your customers

Some of these challenges above can be addressed by expensive marketing campaigns, but marketing campaigns can only do so much in a longer perspective. More sustainable solutions require taking alternative routes. One such route could be to bundle your offer with a product that has a proactive and preventive focus instead of just offering protection against loss. Our ID-monitoring service is such a product.
That our ID-monitoring service is proactive (unlike insurances which mainly are reactive) means that you will stand out and differentiate yourself from the competition. Furthermore, the subject of ID-monitoring and ID theft is highly contemporary and the next natural step in consumer safety. Finally you will not only strengthen your competitiveness with a more innovative product – you will also have a new revenue stream that is not affected by number of claims.
Offering an ID-monitoring service to your customers means that you get yet another channel, in which you can communicate with your customers, via for instance the alarms. We believe that it is a perfect channel to increase loyalty with as your customers actually can consume value of the service you provide without going through the traditional incident or claims function. This is also a perfect opportunity for you to drive more interaction to your app or to your “my pages”.
For customers to experience the value of your products – and by extension your company – they need to use the insurance. Paradoxically though, too frequent use of the insurances is negative from a financial standpoint. Our service on the other hand can be consumed unlimitedly and provides value all the time, for you and your customers. If they know that you always keep them safe, and have the proof of that, they can trust you when other issues appear which could decrease churn.
Since our solution is aimed at preventing ID theft from even happening this could also have a positive effect on your claims ratio and thereby even your combined ratio, depending on what type of insurances you offer. If the customers act properly on the alarms we trigger and the recommendations we provide, they can take appropriate actions before they are exposed to a crime. This would subsequently reduce the need to use that specific insurance cover, resulting in fewer claims.
