BenefitFlow Impact
The Challenge
UPC aimed to transition to a broker-first distribution model, but their existing tools needed precision to target brokers efficiently. Key challenges included:
- Limited Broker Data - UPC's tools, such as ZoomInfo, provided broad contact information but needed more specificity for brokers to align with their Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). This gap hindered efficient targeting.
- Inefficient Resource Allocation: With a detailed map of broker-employer relationships, sales efforts could be better allocated, saving valuable resources on non-ideal prospects.
- Low Impact of Outreach Efforts: UPC's generalized "shotgun" approach to broker outreach resulted in less impactful connections and limited meaningful conversations with brokers.
The Solution: BenefitFlow's Targeted Approach
BenefitFlow offered UPC a data-driven solution to address their unique challenges and optimize their broker outreach efforts. By leveraging advanced tools and insights, BenefitFlow empowered UPC to streamline its sales processes, precisely target brokers that matched their Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), and develop a more strategic approach to engaging with high-value prospects.
Mapping the Broker Landscape
BenefitFlow enabled UPC to comprehensively understand the broker market, focusing on those servicing their ICP. UPC adopted a precise, data-backed approach to connect with high-value brokers by reversing its generalized outreach strategy.
Optimizing Sales Resources
BenefitFlow's advanced analytics have been instrumental in helping UPC analyze broker-employer relationships, enabling smarter territory management and resource allocation. This efficient approach has significantly boosted broker penetration rates across key regions, reassuring the audience about the optimization of resources.
