CASE STUDY
RSA.
Affinity portals transform partner network
Multinational insurance firm, RSA, completely revolutionises how their brokers and affinity partners access product resources.
More efficient knowledge sharing helps engage & educate partners.
RSA Insurance embraced HUB's knowledge management capabilities to completely streamline how they share product information with brokers across 100s of UK branches, with interactive features that delivered a better user experience and helped drive engagement.
HUB was so successful, RSA expanded it across their affinity partner network to Cumberland, Nottingham and Yorkshire Building Societies.
The Challenge.
Staff struggling to find the right information.
One source of truth needed for 2,500 staff
RSA's Affinity Partner Team needed to provide support to over 2,500 customer-facing staff at branches nationwide. There wasn't a central online space where staff, brokers or partners could access accurate, up-to-date information for RSA's home insurance products, which inevitably led to an email overload of questions as branch staff tried to get answers, which led to delays and inefficiencies. Outside of emails, access training material was difficult, which led to poor knowledge amongst branch staff about the latest products, and a silo mentality.
The Solution.
Multi-site portal for each affinity brand.
The one-stop-shop for all things RSA
RSA recognised they needed to create an online knowledge base that as accessible to all staff, providing one definitive source of truth. It needed to be easily accessible, and provide their partner brands and 2,500+ staff with the product information and support to make their life easier. HUB provided the "perfect solution". A multi-site portal branded to each of their affinity partners (YBS, Cumberland and Nottingham), with each environment completely tailored to their individual product requirements. As a digital knowledge management system, HUB provided their remote staff with one-click single sign-on, with direct access to the latest product information, news and product guides, as well as incentivisation and training programmes to boost product knowledge and increase sales.
