As per the latest stats, the Insurance emails have an average click rate of 2.13%. This means of the 1000 emails you sent, only 21.3 got clicks, of which only a few people will send quote inquiries.
As an insurance provider, email marketing is your best bet to get in touch with your audiences. You can share the information about your plans, send proactive reach-outs based on the existing plans, etc. However, it is not the number of emails you send but the number of people that respond to your CTAs and buy your plans. Let's find out how just a simple switch from basic email to interactive email can help you increase these figures manifold!

What are the pain points of using Html emails for insurance?
HTML emails allow you to interact with your clients and send marketing pitches via newsletters, invites, CTAs, and proactive marketing content. However, they fail to deliver what's essential and suffer from the following pain points.
1. Lesser quote inquiries
While you can share information about one or two of your insurance plans via email, send CTAs for insurance renewal, check the plan details, and send quote inquiries, your customers have to exit their email inbox. They are taken to an online form that asks for their details and might even ask for registration before showing the details of the exact plan they chose to learn more about.
The problem is, every such redirect and form that collects data instead of offering desired information takes you away from a potential client closure. Your client suspects your emails being spam and feels that you are only collecting their precious personal data. Hence, they don't respond, and you get few or negligible quote requests.
2. Lesser lead generation
As HTML email fails to offer a dynamic experience right inside the email, such as calculator forms, customized insurance plans, etc., it generates lesser leads. While the existing customers can take the extra step like clicking the CTAs to know more about the insurance plan add-ons and specific plan riders, the potential customers might think it's a tedious task. Hence, they don't even read your email thoroughly and delete it or unsubscribe from your mailing list.
3. Negligible ROI
Email marketing ROI is very small or negligible, and the average email click-to-open rate is 14.10%. Even if email marketing is affordable with such low ROI, it fails to deliver the expected performance and reach the ultimate goal - maximizing the quote inquiries.So, does this mean that email marketing is no longer effective? The answer is NO!
This means that you have to RETHINK your quote inquiry process!
Why should you rethink your quote inquiry process?
Let us take an example
Suppose you are a pet insurance provider that sent an email for travel insurance for pets. Now, Lilith (a person on your mailing list) saw your email, and she wishes to know more about the plan details. However, when she clicks on the link, She is taken to a website that asks her to fill a form with details. After filling the form, she's taken to another website to sign up. She gets frustrated and closes the window! She even unsubscribes from your mailing list by choosing the "Our mails are not relevant to you" option.
But why did this happen? This happened because you failed to offer what Lilith wanted to see! You chose email marketing as it was the best way to get people to "click" your CTAs, but it failed to accomplish the primary task - getting "quote inquiries." When you offer them website-like functionalities inside your email, they don't have to go through the misery of online forms, multiple redirects, and sharing personal information to browse through your insurance plans.
While an HTML email fails to offer a dynamic and interactive experience to your audience, the AMP email allows you to offer all of that and much more right inside your email!
