23. Pilot Approach: Digital
Strategies
Intelligently target users who are in-market for term insurance
Leverage data from trusted sources to connect ads with primary targets as
they surf the internet, creating targeted reach at direct response rates
Identify incremental audience segments that look and behave like original
target audience defined by retargeting and/or 3rd party data sources
23
24. Pilot Approach: Digital (cont.)
Tactics
Modeling & Targeting:
̵ Build lookalike models from existing High Value Customers to determine selects for online targeting in display, email and
lead-generation:
Race/Ethnicity
Profession
Age
Dwelling Type
Education Level
Credit Forecasting
# of Children in HH
Life stage: New Mortgage, New Parent, Newly Married, Recently Divorces
̵ Utilize abandoner and search retargeting
̵ Intersect users who have demonstrated an interest in specific product categories as measured by user’s online browsing,
search activity, and purchase activity (including activity at 1-800-Insurance.com)*
̵ Secure pay for performance media (where available)
̵ Utilize Dynamic creative to customize the conversation for a diverse target set
Buying & Optimization:
̵ Predictive and real-time bidding: algorithmically optimizes audience design, budgets and bid pricing in real-time
̵ Dynamic optimization: Use of conversion, exclusion and retargeting pixels for immediate and on-going campaign
optimization based on a deduped order count*
*Assumes pixels can be dropped. 30 day view-through / click-through window recommended
24
25. Phase I Approach: SEM
Strategies
Efficiently and effectively pace campaign spend over the course of the month
– Refine spend via a day-parting analysis
– Determine optimal use of budget
Expand top-performing components while working to improve or eliminate
under-performing segments
In addition to Google and Bing, PPC campaign can incorporate Facebook,
Yelp and other venues
Maximize Search results through coordination with other marketing efforts
(digital and traditional)
Ensure effective mobile campaign component with dedicated account and
budget
25
26. Phase I Approach: SEM (cont.)
Testing & Reporting:
Test segmenting program spend via top-performing geographies and
markets
Ongoing testing including A/B, ad copy, landing page
– Work with web designer to ensure landing pages are optimized for conversion
Consider test campaigns in Spanish, Mandarin or other languages
Content Targeting Test
– Placement could include sites catering to new parents, retirement planning, etc.
Reporting:
– Get Call Center data to help monitor campaign success
– Consider implementation of Google Analytics
26
27. Phase I Approach: Broadcast
Competitive Analysis:
Based on industry competitive research, Select Quote had control of the
advertising space for 2011, spending nearly 4 times the amount the next
competitor, Matrix Direct. Combined, the category spent more than $18
million in SF DRTV in 2011 for a placement of more than 25,000 spots.
More than 90% of the spend focused on a :60 creative length spot, with the
balance split between :30’s and :120’s.
The total category spend for 2011was split across Cable TV, Spot TV and
Syndication, with Cable TV accounting for 88% of the total spend.
Full analysis completed, comparing the following categories for each
advertiser:
‒ Top 10 stations, based on frequency of air
‒ Local broadcast market selection
‒ Breakdown by daypart (cable & spot)
‒ Total units and airings by daypart
27
28. Phase I Approach: Broadcast
Approach to Market:
Utilize :60 creative length spot for launch (with some testing of a :30 in
phase 2 of plan)
Focus majority of spend on Cable TV category, targeting combination of
stations and markets with successful competitive usage but also testing into
niche “look-alike” stations and markets based on demographic profile of
current usage.
Utilize competitive research to also do a deep-dive on creative executions of
all competitive ads during creative development process
Phase 1 plan includes initial test flight of weeks 1 and 2, followed by initial
optimization in weeks 3 and 4. Full optimization of plan achieved by week 7

30. Measurement Tools
Proprietary HorizonView reporting and analytics system
̵ Order attribution
̵ Digital tracking
̵ Model development
̵ Lifetime Customer Value analysis (LTV) and CRM
̵ Mail delivery tracking
̵ Call center lead scoring and performance analysis
̵ Call center & financial forecasting
30
31. Measuring
Cross-Channel Convergence
Challenge: channel attribution is
necessary but doesn’t work for
optimization. “The customer is channel
agnostic 1.”
Risk: optimizing out of “contributing”
media exposures prior to a conversion
can adversely impact sales volume
Solution: evolving attribution
methodology to include “assist
conversions” or fractional cross-channel
attribution

portfolios

average of 3.6 years
– High-income adults carry the most life insurance in terms of the lengths of time they can
replace their personal incomes
– Men with personal incomes of over $100,000 can replace their incomes for the longest
time
– Middle-income women with personal incomes of $50,000 to $99,999 carry the smallest
amounts of life insurance in relation to their personal incomes
In 2010, only 1 in 10 insured adults owned both permanent and term

48. What is a DSP?
A demand-side platform is a system that allows advertisers to manage
multiple ad exchange and data management accounts through one interface.
By utilizing a DSP, marketers can access and manage bids for banners via a
DSP’s “seat*” on an exchange, as well as the pricing for the data that they
are layering on to target their audiences.
Additionally, much like Paid Search, using a DSP allows marketers to
optimize based on set Key Performance Indicators.
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand-side_platform
*While Valueclick is not a DSP, they have their own exchange seats and competing optimization technology
48
49. What is a Dynamic CPM?
On every ad call, the Exchange holds an auction to find the highest paying
ad to serve. What sets this auction apart is the dynamic pricing option for
advertisers. Dynamic pricing ensures that the price an advertiser pays for an
impression is tied directly to the value of the impression to that advertiser.
The DSP’s ad server predicts the probability of a user’s response to a
particular ad, calculates a bid price tied to the value, and determines whether
the creative passes the test of ROI.

50. Real-time Bidding: Example
Decision Tree
Data shows that consumers at this publisher and at this time of day are 3x
more likely to engage with the brand
Engine learns over time where new consumers can be found algorithmically
50
51. What is a Universal Smart Tag?
Acts as a “container” and management tool for all adserved media
programs
Provides real-time pixel “fire” based on deduped order count within a pre-
defined “look back” window
Delivers cross-program path to conversion, exposure to conversion and
time lag to conversion insight
Enables “enterprise level” reporting
Reduces page load time
51
53. Attribute Importance
Geographic location (DMA, region, and state) and connection
speed are the most important predictors of campaign
success. Nielsen NE (demographic variable) and browser are
also significant.
