Founded in 1980, Hollard is South Africa's largest privately-owned insurance group and provides both short-term and life insurance, as well as investment products.
With more than 3000 employees and their headquarters based in Johannesburg, South Africa, Hollard also operates in 8 different countries and is well known for delivering exceptional service to its customer base.
In order to maximise their marketing activities and budgets, Hollard needed to have a full understanding of the context and the environment they operated in. This required an understanding of their competitor's activity and monitoring their own activity across all media platforms.
Having oversight of the communications that their audiences were being exposed to gave Hollard an opportunity to create a space and direction for their own communications that would allow them to stand out in a very crowded category.
Once this was done, Hollard also needed to measure and monitor how their communications were being received and responded to and align the reporting to their brand and communication objectives.
"Meltwater provides a one-stop-shop for all our needs, measuring and monitoring for our entire category."
Joanna Mondon, Group Marketing & Sponsorship Manager at Hollard
