Many insurance companies have clean and accessible datasets on their current customers. However, this data is often limited to their current relationship with your organization and some pertinent demographic data collected as part of the application process. Augmenting your data with market data can help you create a more robust picture of who your customers are, who they could be and what their needs are. We offer a wealth of market data available down to the postal code level. This can help inform acquisition strategies with people who are not yet your customers and provide insight on how to better attract them to your brand. For example, we can help you target millennials or the mass affluent population. See our databases
