Direct-to-consumer life insurance journey design and implementation
Insight: Customers don’t prioritise taking out life insurance and therefore aren’t always willing to invest time in the process.
Design challenge: How can we create a self-service journey for referred life insurance customers to understand their needs and circumstances prior to their advice meeting?
Idea: A supportive, engaging journey that guides users through simple to steps to provide their information, book an advice meeting and get prepared.
