How we helped reposition and promote a professional medical indemnity provider as a trusted, affordable solution for private practice surgeons and brokers.

Other great work

Although EthiQal was launched two years earlier, the brand was unknown in the market and battled to convert sales. Constantia Insurance, the underwriter of EthiQal, wanted to reposition and build the brand, and generate sales leads in a highly specialised market.

The solution

A new brand strategy, brand guide, campaign Big Idea and website were developed, followed by a 6-month, omni-channel campaign to create brand awareness and promote EthiQal’s unique benefits.

BRAND STRATEGY AND CREATIVE IDEA

Following an industry benchmarking exercise, a brand strategy was developed to position EthiQal as the indemnity cover provider that is committed to keeping South Africa’s doctors in business. Three USPs, which differentiate EthiQal from its competitors, were highlighted with unique icons and used across all campaign elements. A campaign Big Idea was developed – portraying how doctors should stay focused on treating their patients to ensure they have healthy futures, while EthiQal takes care of their indemnity cover to ensure their practices have a secure future.

A dynamic new website with the new positioning and creative was developed. The site is optimised for sales leads and engagement with simple navigation, responsive design and strong calls to action. A blog was incorporated into the site for the regular upload of informative and valuable articles that are relevant to doctors in private practice.

Stratitude truly entrenched themselves in our business and developed a strategy that was aligned to our objectives with clear KPIs. As a result of the campaign, our brand awareness increased substantially in a highly specialised and competitive market, we generated new sales leads and the marketing also aided client retention.

The team always goes the extra mile to deliver value and I highly recommend their services both from a strategy and campaign implementation perspective.
