“We switched from our previous provider to Insider to connect all digital data and touchpoints, cut eKYC drop-offs, and boost high-quality leads. In weeks, sales cycles were faster, acquisition costs lower, and customer trust and engagement at an all-time high.”

Senior Vice President, Performance Marketing

Why Insider

Generali selected Insider for its advanced compliance features, strong security standards, and proven ability to deliver personalized journeys at scale. Using Insider’s CDP, Generali connected disparate systems for a unified customer view, enabling engagement across preferred channels. Seamless integration and data-driven cross-channel journeys improved engagement and reduced eKYC drop-offs, supporting both immediate results and long-term growth.

Executive summary

Generali faced high CAC, repeated eKYC drop-offs, low digital activity, and poor platform stickiness, leading to lost revenue and weaker customer engagement. With Insider’s financial services expertise, secure local AWS hosting, and seamless CDP and CRM integration, Generali delivered personalized customer journeys across channels. These improvements drove 3X more leads, 20% faster sales cycles, 40% better onboarding, and 25% higher customer LTV.

About Generali

Generali is one of the largest insurance and asset management providers globally, serving 68 million customers in over 50 countries since 1831. Recent strategic reinvention has focused on efficiency, customer-centric innovation, and regulatory leadership.

USE CASE #1

17% drop in eKYC drop-offs and 3X lead growth with gamified, personalized engagement

The challenge

Generali needed to not only lower CAC and collect high-quality leads but also reduce eKYC onboarding drop-offs and increase engagement among digitally inactive customers. Previous efforts with another provider left too many anonymous visitors unconverted and the platform underutilized, stalling growth and retention.

“We couldn’t believe how quickly Insider integrated with our systems. Their support meant we now run personalized, secure, and interactive experiences that keep customers engaged, not just signing up.”

The solution

By integrating Insider’s CDP and CRM, Generali mapped behavior across all touchpoints while gamified overlays and memory-game templates turned passive site visits into interactive lead opportunities. AI-driven segmentation personalized banners for recently viewed products to nudge engagement and unlock powerful cross-sell and quote-to-policy experiences. Real-time onboarding status updates and compliance notifications assured digital trust and transparency.

USE CASE #2

20% faster sales cycles and 25% higher CLTV with AI-led lead validation for reactivation

The challenge

Without automated lead validation or real-time alerts, Generali’s sales teams wasted time on cold leads, missed opportunities, and struggled to reactivate inactive customers. The lack of ongoing engagement tools resulted in low platform stickiness.

The solution

Insider’s multi-layered platform introduced AI-led lead scoring with behavioral signals, predictive Early Month on Book (EMOB) activation strategies, and personalized re-engagement plans to target low-score and inactive users, driving platform loyalty. CRM integration ensured the sales team could focus on high-intent and retained customers.

“Insider’s AI-powered lead scoring immediately stood out for its accuracy. Our sales team now spends far less time chasing unqualified leads and far more time engaging with customers who are ready to convert. That shift alone has made a dramatic difference in both our sales velocity and customer relationships.”
