5 Revolutionary AI-driven Marketing Trends in Insurance for 2020

5 minutes, 41 seconds read

Insurance consumers around the globe are seeking convenience and expecting better customer experience. From millennials to Gen Z, with the agile connectivity, irrespective of the industry has numerous options to choose from. As the competition intensifies the insurance industry has to jump into the bandwagon of technovation in order to provide improved accuracy, cost-saving and excellent customer experience. 

Here is a list of the marketing trends in insurance that will prove to be a game-changer in the year 2020.

1. Robo Financial Advisors

According to a Business Insider Intelligence forecast, by the year 2020 Robo-advisers will manage investment products worth $1 trillion, which will spike up to $4.6 trillion by as early as 2022.

Robo advisors have been around for quite some time. In the year 2008, during the financial crisis, Jon Stein, a 30-year old entrepreneur launched “Betterment”, the first Robo-advisor. In recent years due to its low investment rates and data input based research results, it has increased in popularity. 

It is basically designed for the people who want to manage their finances with low management cost. Based on respective data inputs, the Robo-advisors offer any advisory services. 

The main purpose behind the making of the Robo-advisor is to bring the financial services to the wide range of population with lower investment cost as compared to the traditional human advisors. Upwardly.com, 5Paisa.com and Goalwise.com are some applications of Robo-advisors.

Behind the scenes of the software of Robo-advisors are actual human beings who track the market regularly and adjust the algorithms based on the current market condition. Robo-advisors are a boon to the end-users as they can invest in direct plans of mutual funds without shelling any commission. However lack of personalization and one-size-fits-all products are the areas of improvement.

2. Data Integration: The Future of Marketing

IDC estimates that, by the year 2020, the digital cosmos will reach 44 zettabytes, further complicating the lives of marketing professionals.

Integrating data sources is vital for any company, whether B2B or B2C to successfully meet Customer Experience expectations thereby drive accelerated sales revenue.

With an integrated source of information, retailers can administer and optimise marketing through KPI’s, metrics and dimensions that would not have been possible with the separate source system. In order to upscale marketing operations, a connected viewpoint is essential to evaluate the campaigns, audiences, events and channels, and drive the strategic goals.

From an operational viewpoint, CRM solution provides the organization with new business and the ERP system allows to manage and drive businesses around obstacles. A good place to start with the data integration is by Integrating these two systems shall provide marketers and the organizational sales-force with vital information, that can be shared with the stakeholders.

3. AI-driven Copywriting

Artificial intelligence can create cancer combating drugs, control self-driving cars, defeat the best brains at incredibly complex board games, but one realm it can’t perform flawlessly is communicating.

To help solve the issue, Google has been feeding it’s AI with more than 11,000 unpublished books, including 3,000 steamy romance titles. 

Autoencoder, a type of AI network, uses a data set to reproduce a result (in this case copywriting) using fewer steps. Insurers can harness this AI capability to create sentences and suggest the best-optimised language to approach the customers.

AI copywriting is evolving to a whole new level. Google granted  €706,000 (£621,000) to the Press Association, to run a news service with computers writing localised news stories. AI with the help of human journalists can write up to 30000 news stories a month and scale up the volume of the stories that would otherwise be impossible to produce manually.  

“Skilled human journalists will still be vital in the process, but Radar allows us to harness artificial intelligence to scale up to a volume of local stories that would be impossible to provide manually. It is a fantastic step forward for PA.”

  • PA’s editor-in-chief, Peter Clifton 

4. Gamification of Insurance

At the nexus of marketing trends ranging from social networking to the IoT to behavioural science and wearable tech;  gamification is a powerful lever for insurers and insurance agents. It creates an enriching digital experience and customer-centric business model.

Gamification offers great potential value to the insurance business process in the realm of consumer engagement and customer experience. From millennials to Gen Z, it has emerged as a useful practice and effective means to target early technology adopters by:

  • Transforming mundane tasks into interesting and fun experiences that keep users returning.
  • Increases brand awareness, brand penetration and affinity.
  • Increase sales by educating customers about product suitability and guide them to buying the product.
  • Motivating people to act in areas of healthcare and wellness, safe driving, financial planning and sustainability.

Ingress and AXA redefined the world of gaming and advertisement. December 5th, 2014, Niantic Labs the creator of ‘Ingress’ partnered with AXA. In the game, AXA Shield was initially only obtainable from AXA Portals, leading you to AXA business locations in person.

5. Advanced AI Capabilities in Insurance

Innovation and technology are the next frontiers in the insurance industry. While automation and IoT are already a reality for insurance, with the advent of AI there has been a holistic approach to Insurance automation. With insurance leveraging AI, it has expanded its reach to more ecosystems than ever before. Deploying AI capabilities in insurance can help make smarter underwriting decisions, fraud detections, risk assessment and create a better customer experience.

AI is driving significant change in business with insurance being no exception. It has the potential to enhance the insurance business model by-

  1. Customizing the services for better customer experience: One size no longer fits all, and the same goes for the insurance industry. With focus on individual markets, insurers can create niche usage-based products to sell the packages in a variety of ways.

Parag Sharma, CEO, Manta Labs and AI thought leader is going to speak about the Internet of Intelligent Experiences™: CX for the Digital Insurer at India Insurance Summit and Awards 2020 on March 12, 2020. Catch him live at IISA 2020.

Empowering Frontline Healthcare Sales Teams with Mobile-First Tools

In healthcare, field sales is more than just hitting quotas—it’s about navigating a complex stakeholder ecosystem that spans hospitals, clinics, diagnostics labs, and pharmacies. Reps are expected to juggle compliance, education, and relationship-building—all on the move.

But, traditional systems can’t keep up. 

Only 28% of a rep’s time is spent selling; the rest is lost to administrative tasks, CRM updates, and fragmented workflows.

Salesforce, State of Sales 2024

This is where mobile-first sales apps in healthcare are changing the game—empowering sales teams to work smarter, faster, and more compliantly.

The Real Challenges in Traditional Field Sales

Despite their scale, many healthcare sales teams still rely on outdated tools that drag down performance:

  • Paper-based reporting: Slows down data consolidation and misses real-time insights
  • Siloed CRMs: Fragmented systems lead to broken workflows

According to a study by HubSpot, 32% of reps spend at least an hour per day just entering data into CRMs.

  • Managing Visits: Visits require planning, which may involve a lot of stress since doctors have a busy schedule, making it difficult for sales reps to meet them.
  • Inconsistent feedback loops: Managers struggle to coach and support reps effectively
  • Compliance gaps: Manual processes are audit-heavy and unreliable

These issues don’t just affect productivity—they erode trust, delay decisions, and increase revenue leakage.

What a Mobile-First Sales App in Healthcare Should Deliver

According to Deloitte’s 2025 Global Healthcare Executive Outlook, organizations are prioritizing digital tools to reduce burnout, drive efficiency, and enable real-time collaboration. A mobile-first sales app in healthcare is a critical part of this shift—especially for hybrid field teams dealing with fragmented systems and growing compliance demands.

Core Features of a Mobile-First Sales App in Healthcare

1. Smart Visit Planning & Route Optimization

Field reps can plan high-impact visits, reduce travel time, and log interactions efficiently. Geo-tagged entries ensure field activity transparency.

2. In-App KYC & E-Detailing

According to Viseven, over 60% of HCPs prefer on-demand digital content over live rep interactions, and self-detailing can increase engagement up to 3x compared to traditional methods.
By enabling self-detailing within the mobile app, reps can deliver compliance-approved content, enable interactive, personalized detailing during or after HCP visits, and give HCPs control over when and how they engage.

3. Real-Time Escalation & Commission Tracking

Track escalation tickets and incentive eligibility on the go, reducing back-and-forth and improving rep satisfaction.

4. Centralized Knowledge Hub

Push product updates, training videos, and compliance checklists—directly to reps’ devices. Maintain alignment across distributed teams. 

5. Live Dashboards for Performance Tracking

Sales leaders can view territory-wise performance, rep productivity, and engagement trends instantly, enabling proactive decision-making.

Case in Point: Digitizing Sales for a Leading Pharma Firm

Mantra Labs partnered with a top Indian pharma firm to streamline pharmacy workflows inside their ecosystem. 

The Challenge:

  • Pharmacists were struggling with operational inefficiencies that directly impacted patient care and satisfaction. 
  • Delays in prescription fulfillment were becoming increasingly common due to a lack of real-time inventory visibility and manual processing bottlenecks. 
  • Critical stock-out alerts were either missed or delayed, leading to unavailability of essential medicines when needed. 
  • Additionally, communication gaps between pharmacists and prescribing doctors led to frequent clarifications, rework, and slow turnaround times—affecting both speed and accuracy in dispensing medication. 

These challenges not only disrupted the pharmacy workflow but also created a ripple effect across the wider care delivery ecosystem.

  • 81% reduction in manual errors, thanks to automation and real-time dashboards
  • Streamlined doctor-pharmacy coordination, leading to fewer clarifications and faster dispensing

Integration Is Key

  • CRM systems for lead and pipeline tracking
  • HRMS for leave, attendance, and performance sync
  • LMS to deliver ongoing training
