With the introduction of better technology and gadgets that allow consumers to access their finances around the clock, it is essential to note that their primary financial needs remain unchanged. Consumers still need to pay for goods, services, and household bills, create appropriate insurance policies, and prepare for retirement.
When UK consumers were polled about their experience choosing financial services and insurance organisations, only around half found the communications they received relevant. 63% of people in the UK stated they would consider switching suppliers if communications expectations were unmet. At the same time, over a third of responders said they would switch accounts if their communications were not sent at the right time.
Whistl understands that, in the finance industry, your customers’ trust is paramount. With the introduction of GDPR and upcoming changes to ePrivacy law, you need to communicate with your customers in a way that respects their right to privacy. Our range of solutions ensures that your financial business can tackle these challenges with more relevant, timely and tangible communications.
Using Doordrop Media with Finance and Insurance
Target specific regions and prospective customers without accessing their data with our door-drop marketing services. By analysing our anonymised datasets, which provide insights into the financial habits of nearly 30 million homes across the UK, our Doordrop Media service allows you to focus your campaign on postal areas and demographics most likely to invest in your company.
With partially addressed mail delivery, you can maintain your recipients' anonymity while increasing impact. Through audience profiling and insights, our dedicated planning team can narrow the focus of your campaign, allowing you to target individual homes without needing personal information about their occupants. You can also produce partially addressed items with more specific consumers in mind by replacing their names with generic titles to ensure your correspondence complies with GDPR rules.

Direct Mail
Personalise your correspondence with advertising direct mail for an impactful first impression. Once your team has identified individuals with demographics, lifestyles, and spending habits that align with your target audience, we can help manage the delivery of the items to ensure that you create a more meaningful connection between them and your finance or insurance company.

GDPR-Compliant Mail
By targeting your customers at the household level rather than as individuals, door-drop media is a GDPR-compliant service that lets you protect your recipients' identities without compromising your campaign's effectiveness. With insights from our anonymised datasets, your financial or insurance business can regularly communicate with individuals with favourable demographics while protecting their data through partial addressing.
Whistl provides audience insights to inform our financial and insurance clients about what influences their customers' service choices and how they interact with marketing communications. These insights allow us to tailor your Doordrop Media to appeal to the critical financial decision-makers in your target households, thereby increasing the effectiveness of your campaign.
Customer Insight Support
Whistl provides full support for your advertising campaign, from the initial brief to analysis of the campaign's success. Our advice and guidance allow your organisation to improve its return on marketing investment by only delivering its advertising communication to homes with the strongest propensity to respond.
Whistl’s insight team has provided a snapshot of data analysis from Kantar Media. It is estimated that 40.5 million adults in Great Britain are the critical financial decision-makers within the household. These decision-makers make the essential selections for their household on which providers to use for financial policies/products (i.e., bank accounts, credit cards, insurance policies, loans, etc.).
