Unitrin Specialty Case Study
About the company
Unitrin Specialty could be credited to be among the earliest insurance companies to realize the importance of offering vehicle insurance as a special
product to enable more focused service, which could lead to better customer satisfaction. A phenomenal 140% growth rate and a place among the
top 10 in the highly competitive motor insurance industry within a short span of 3 years proved that specialization does pay.
Unitrin Specialty is headquartered in Dallas and was formed by the merger of Charter Insurance and Financial Indemnity Company.
Before EchoMail
Unitrin Specialty realized the underlining need to stay in touch with its customer base for both retention and growth;
it was in the service industry and understood the importance of fast and effective communication with its customer base.
It operates across 23 states and has a dedicated broker / agent network numbering 8000 which adds to its communication challenges.
It wanted to partner with a professional E-Mail management company to take care of its outbound E-Mail marketing initiatives.
After a thorough analysis and weighing various options it chose EchoMail for its expertise in the financial sector.
EchoMail deployment
EchoMail analyzed the need of the client and recommended the use of its well-researched outbound marketing
tool EchoMail® DM™. Direct Marketing helped them stay in touch with their large base of contracted independent
insurance agents. It helped in the prompt dispatch of client communication such as system enhancements,
product promotions and new pricing schemes to its agent network.
After EchoMail
Automation helped Unitrin Specialty streamline its communication with its agents / broker network and make
it more professional. This brought about a close rapport between the customers and the company and enhanced
service quality, which helped in retention of business in the face of strong competition
