If you are like most Medicare marketers, you are probably doing fine. The basis for the way you feel – your average response rate. Living off of an average creates a glass ceiling in terms of marketing optimization. Think about it, if your average response rate is 1%, some people are not responding at all and some are responding at 2%. Let’s talk about ways to change the average by eliminating monies being spent on those 65 plus year olds that will not buy – Group Retirees, Medicaid, Retired Military and more.
The question in how? The answer is what all of you have been reading about – big data. Not only do you need big data, you need relevant data. At Data Decisions Group we have over 100 data elements that speak to this audience plus thousands of additional fields that can be used to improve your marketing outcomes.
