CASE STUDY
Safeco Insurance powers personalized broker journeys
Connecting systems for connected agent experiences
Protecting individuals and families since 1923, Safeco Insurance, a Liberty Mutual company, works in a broker model through independent agents. But communication with these agents was hampered by a web solution that lacked personalization and dynamic content. What’s more, data silos created disparities between brokers’ web-portal experiences and Safeco email content.
At Dreamforce 2019, Ashlee Lochbaum, Marketing Technology Strategist for Safeco, revealed how her team integrated Salesforce and Sitecore for deeper customer insight and tailored communication.
