The challenge

Colombians cared far more about soap opera characters than about insuring their own lives.

The idea

Built into the series Darío Gómez: El Rey del Despecho, the promotion let viewers pick a character and cover them against accident, illness or death using real products. If the storyline triggered the insured event, the policyholder went into a draw for a payout, and every interaction captured first-party data.

Results

  • Qualified leads rose 434%
  • US$121M in insurance sales attributed
  • 358,000 active participants
