The Aon ‘Better Life’ Group Long Term Disability campaign recently won an Award for Excellence in Direct Marketing in the category Integrated B2B Media Campaign (lead generation or retention) from the Philadelphia Direct Marketing Association (2014 Benjamin Franklin Awards ‘Benny’ Awards).
The integrated campaign promoted the new Group Elite Suite – Life and LTD – to existing Life customers. The goal was to generate awareness and leads for the two products. The campaign strategy was to build a multi-touch integrated campaign utilizing best practices and our experience for getting a prospect’s attention and driving them online. By gathering data TLF could report results and insights to Aon.
The campaign consisted of a direct mail piece, email and a landing page. The landing page included a dynamic video introduction which TLF produced. It also included a link
to read product benefits. The CTA was to request more info or a quote.
