Marketing to Women Online: Selling Financial Services to Women b.../b
When you think of products designed for women, you tend to think of razors, or minivans, or skin creams. But what about financial products designed for women. Sound like a crazy idea?
It didn't sound so crazy to American General Life and Accident Insurance Company (AGLA).
While much of the insurance market is down, AGLA’s business is up 20% and they credit it largely to a product they call " Quality of Life…Insurance
What if you suffer a heart attack, stroke, or invasive cancer and don’t die? Would your family be able to maintain their standard of living if you were financially impacted by a serious illness?
Traditional life insurance is designed to provide security for your loved ones in the event of your premature death… but what if you could get life insurance you don’t have to die to use?
The idea behind the product is that it can be used for life insurance if you die, or long term care insurance if you face a serious illness first.
Why Quality of Life…Insurance is a win with women
Insurance is a woman's issue. Women actually plan ahead and ask the, "What if?" questions.
AGLA’s CEO Jim Mallon had this to say:
I've seen that in my research and work with financial companies as well. This is especially true when it comes to health issues and long term care insurance. Financial advisers and insurance agents I speak to tell me male clients say, " That isn't going to happen to me. I'm going to go out just like my dad, at the Braves game with a beer in one hand and hot dog in the other ."
Many men often haven't really thought through what a serious health event would look like. Women have. Caretaking and health care tend to fall under their domain.
That's why AGLA’s Quality of Life…Insurance product is so strong. It addresses men's needs to be the protector and provider with a life insurance benefit. It addresses women's needs for a plan in case someone gets seriously ill. And it's all done with one product, so there's no choosing between the two.
