Key partner assets: Agos selected Pitney Bowns due to the ability to deliver: • personalization: show customers that we know them well • interactivity: to collect info on customer needs and desires • real time comm: to create the WOW effect and buzz! • sharing mechanisms: to maximize the impact & word of mouth
The scouting of the right supplier was pretty simple because no other partners offered all the above together
The video requested a 360° internal engagement with the whole company: communication, marketing , legal, operations, IT, HR…
It was a great way to create a cohesive team-spirit and focus attention to customers
Many challenges: - used the real time weather as initial hook - registered +300 names for welcome messages - collected +500 pictures to show their real personal consultant - created a dynamic simulator to calculate loans
