Jasper MartensBrand trust is today’s most important consumer relationship, especially when it comes to a financial product like a pension. It not only convinces customers to sign up or buy a product, but it is also the key ingredient to brand retention…. certain marketing channels, such as Out-of-Home, lend themselves better to build trust because consumers see it as brands making a public commitment. It creates brand fame and familiarity - once you've seen us on a billboard or TV screen, you're more likely to click on a targeted Social Media ad from us and move all your pensions across. That’s why at Pension Bee, we’re increasingly optimising our marketing campaigns by including a mixture of public and private media, with channels like Out-of-Home used to build trust, broaden who we reach, and ultimately, help accelerate our customer growth.
