Investment Campaign

Talking about the campaign, Ms., Santosh Agarwal, Head of Life Insurance, PolicyBazaar.com, said, "In India, insurance investment plans are generally bought through captive agents without knowing much about benefits of the policy. Through this campaign, we want to highlight why people should compare different plans online, understand various features of a policy, know the policy cost, returns & tax benefits, and then make a considered, most paying decision."

Sai Narayan, Associate Director and Head of Marketing, Policybazaar.com, added, "Insurance purchase is the key financial decision in the life of a customer. As a brand, we believe in helping customers to understand fundamental of the product they are buying, so that they can make informed choices. The campaign is aimed at triggering a shift in the buying behaviour of consumers, and establishes comparison as an important intervention in insurance purchases."

The TV commercial starts with a man signing insurance papers and the insurance agent sitting next to him enjoying tea and cookies. Just when the agent asks his client to sign the last time to complete the process, the client's wife enters the room with a tab in her hand. She tells her husband to at least look at different policies available on Policybazaar.com, compare them and then go for the one which offers the maximum returns. Responding in a rather defensive manner, the husband says that since the agent has suggested the best policy, what was the need to compare with other policies Intervening in the conversation, the agent says, "tax bhi bachega bhabhi ji (you will save tax as well)." To this, the woman says in a sarcastic tone that "tax to har insurance policy bachaati hai (all insurance policies give tax benefits)." As the agent was going to take a sip, she asks him to keep the tea cup down. The agent says, "Main to apke bhale ki baat kar raha tha, baaki..(I was telling something beneficial to you. The rest …)" he leaves the sentence unfinished. The woman says they will themselves look at various policy options on Policybazaar.com, compare and then buy the one with maximum returns. Her husband then looks at the agent sheepishly.
