Benefits of SMS for Insurance

Here are some of the ways the insurance industry is benefitting from using SMS.

Keep policyholders informed about their claim via SMS

An informed customer is a happy customer

And the most cost effective way to keep your insurance customers informed is by SMS. By using event triggers everything can be completely automated. Here are some of the ways people are using automated, transactional SMS messaging to simplify their insurance communications:

  • Send premium renewal notifications by text message to encourage people to pay on time and reduce the number of late payments.

  • Keep policyholders appraised of how their claim is progressing - when updates are made on their policy, have an automated text message sent to alert the policyholder. That way, should these updates have been without their knowledge/consent they have been informed and are able to contact you ASAP to follow up.

  • Provide quotes in real time - when an enquiry is sent, respond instantly using automations to calculate a quote based on the information the enquiry contains.

  • Reduce comparison shopping by prospective leads - provide quotes quickly and send follow ups based on whether the customer has signed up.

Building more and better relationships with customers

Utilise text message marketing to retain your existing customers and convert new leads to customers.

  • Send marketing messages based on when your customers are about to renew their policies to avoid them shopping around or being enticed by competitors.

  • Send bundle deals to encourage people to sign up for multiple different insurance products.

  • If there are regulations or tax implications of not having health insurance, why not send a personalised marketing blast to people who will be affected to get them to add a health insurance policy?

Use text messaging as a clever marketing tool, with automations to trigger at the point where the customer will be most receptive to your offer. Learn more about our SMS integrations.
