The Results
By partnering with Zeta and implementing AI-based omnichannel marketing, Generali and their agency, Media & Leads Polska, were able to deliver an enhanced digital experience that echoed their values, increased online engagement, and generated highly qualified leads.
The Challenge
Fragmented Technology and Low-Quality Leads
Generali Poland was facing challenges with its marketing technology, hindering the team’s ability to create effective, engaging campaigns in previous years. Disparate data from a variety of tools rendered it virtually impossible to create a unified view of customers. This resulted in a disjointed multichannel communication strategy, lower-quality leads, and a prolonged sales process. To grow in the highly competitive insurance market, Generali knew they needed to find better solutions.
The Solution
AI-Based Individualized Website Experiences
After vetting multiple vendors, Generali implemented the Zeta AI-Powered Marketing Cloud to better engage their customers. To pilot the technology, Generali decided to focus on enhancing website activation with the goal of increasing lead quality. By leveraging Zeta's technology, Generali was able to eliminate their existing data silos to create a unified customer view and interact with website visitors in real time. Instead of relying on rules-based personalization, Generali crafted individualized experiences that changed depending on engagement levels and behavior, building immediate rapport with visitors through messaging and promotions that felt authentic.
Zeta's scoring engine and website personalization tools enabled Generali to activate their first-party data and scale across various insurance verticals, resulting in hundreds of sales-ready leads. Unlike their previous lead generation efforts, these leads were well nurtured and closed at a 24% higher rate, ultimately reducing time to close and driving more incremental revenue at an even quicker pace for the business.
Impressed by the exceptional quality of Zeta-driven leads, Generali's call center team expressed interest in sourcing similar leads for other business units, leading to discussions about incorporating additional modules from the Zeta platform. Looking forward, Generali aims to leverage AI-powered audiences for retargeting purposes across other channels to create individualized omnichannel experiences.
