- Immediate value and visible benefits from insurance coverage can drive greater acceptance.
- Long-term vision is to distribute €100 billion of protection through leading brands, which would position the company as the world's largest insurance provider.
Defining a new category is essential for clarifying a company's purpose, positioning, and value proposition in the market, making it easier for people to understand the company's business.
- The rebranding and category creation were driven by the difficulty in articulating the company's mission and purpose in one sentence.
- Creating a new category in the InsureTech space helps clarify what the company stands for and its positioning.
- A defined category enables people, both internally and externally, to easily understand the company's business and value proposition.
The rebranding and the creation of a new category have significantly impacted the company's positioning and visibility in the market, resulting in increased inbound interest and invitations to large enterprise deals.
- The introduction of the new category has eliminated the need for the company to explain its services, as clients now understand their value and role as orchestrators.
- The company has experienced an influx of inbound requests from large risk carriers and brokers, positioning it well in the enterprise space.
- The rebranding has led to a rapid shift and pivot toward being enterprise-ready, enabling the company to participate in significant deals (jumbo deals) and partnerships.
The branding process "its a revelation!"
“How is it, after seven years in the business, that I'm not able to label my problem properly?… Defining category is, for me, a very strong way to define what you stand for. By understanding the category you are in a directly, you understand what is your business about.”
