Prepare your Consumer Insurance campaigns

Offering coverage to more members benefits your credit union and the people you serve. When you combine TruStage® outreach with your own marketing efforts — supported by our easy-to-use multimedia materials — you can deepen engagement, increase noninterest income and stay top of mind during important buying moments.

Two people laughing together while discussing TruStage Consumer Insurance campaigns

Driving email outreach to members

Planned email messages help build awareness and begin the conversation concerning TruStage insurance products. To complement that outreach, we encourage you to use the email templates and marketing assets we provide.

Thinking about email segmentation? Consider these groupings:

  • Age
  • Account tenure
  • Account balance
  • Type of account
  • New members, indirect members or auto loan closings

When it comes to timing, think about:

  • Coordination around a direct mail drop
  • Other marketing events and themes, including birthdays
  • Ongoing engagement emails
  • A full credit union marketing calendar, to plan cadence
  • Number of emails sent and number of unsubscribes

Review full lists of considerations for segmentation and timing in the campaign guide.
