Episode Highlights: 

Making the most of your travel protection boils down to two main areas of strategy:  

  1. Sales 
  1. Marketing 

These strategies should feed one another to bring in more travel insurance enrollments.  

 

Upselling Your Protection Programs: 

There are many ways in which you can better upsell your travel insurance offering, including: 

  • Elevating your booking page and auditing your website, 
  • Optimizing your software to enhance your current touchpoints, 
  • Developing better team training with the goal of telling a story, 
  • Utilizing third-party integrations for further reach, and 
  • Targeting initial travel insurance enrollment declines. 

 

Better Strategizing Your Marketing: 

Your business most likely already implements marketing as part of your overall business strategy. Now it’s about leveling up your existing marketing efforts through tactics like: 

  • Yearly audits where you assess your marketing strategy, industry trends where your business fits, web content, and competitors; 
  • Email scheduling for important timings within the booking cycle, including booking abandonment, pre-arrival, and post-departure, as well as booking anniversaries, off-season or long-term stays, and cancellations; and 
  • Mobile-friendly email optimization.
