How Do Insurers Co-Create Content with Brokers?
Build a broker-first content engine that turns appetite guides and underwriting insights into co-branded plays that generate quotes, binds, and renewals—with compliance and disclosure control.
Insurers and brokers co-create by aligning appetite to broker books, converting underwriting expertise into co-branded kits (landing pages, emails, social posts, proposal inserts), and enabling producers with talk tracks and disclosures. Content is distributed through broker CRMs and portals and measured beyond clicks to quote rate, bind rate, premium written, and retention.
What Matters in Insurer–Broker Content?
The Co-Creation Playbook
A simple loop to turn underwriting insight into broker-led growth.
Select → Align → Build → Approve → Distribute → Attribute → Govern
- Select target classes and regions based on hit ratio, profitability, and capacity.
- Align with tiered brokers on ICP, volumes, and MDF goals; agree on SLAs and routing.
- Build co-branded kits: landing page module, email snippets, social copy, proposal insert, webinar deck, and producer talk track.
- Approve with locked templates, state disclosures, and archive IDs to satisfy filing and advertising rules.
- Distribute through insurer MAP, broker CRM/portal, events, and local SEO listings; provide easy personalization fields.
- Attribute content touches to submissions, quotes, binds, and premium using UTM/offer IDs and policy linking.
- Govern quarterly refresh, loss ratio review, and budget shifts toward highest hit-rate themes and partners.
