Pearl Insurance Takes Home Gold at PIMAs 2007 MarkeTTech Competition
Tuesday, December 04, 2007 at 3:32:30 PM



Pearl Insurance recently won four awards, including a Gold Award, in the 2007 Professional Insurance Marketing Association (PIMA) MarkeTTech Marketing Methods competition. The annual contest highlights the best work in the insurance marketing industry and recognizes excellence in marketing materials.

A forum for leaders in the insurance direct marketing industry to craft strategic relationships, develop business opportunities, and hone their expertise, PIMA is the nation's premier association for insurance marketers. It consists of third-party administrators, insurance carriers, and other business partners involved in the direct marketing of insurance products in the affinity and association marketplace. Going against some of the biggest names and budgets in the insurance marketing industry in this distinguished competition, Pearl impressed the judges substantially, taking home an award for every entry they submitted.

Pearl's Marketing, Administration, Information Systems, and Database Management teams worked together to produce these outstanding results. In addition to the Gold Award for the category of Cross-Sell and Upgrade Marketing, Pearl also earned a Bronze Award for Self-Promotion Agency (Website), another Bronze for Mail Solicitation for an Underwritten Product, and an Honorable Mention for Multiple-Effort Marketing Campaign.

"This is not the first time Pearl's innovative group of insurance professionals has brought home an award from PIMA's annual competition-one of the most significant events in our industry," explains Mike Murphy, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer at Pearl Companies, "but we could not have asked for a better outcome this year-earning an award for every entry we submitted."

Pearl has employed four national PIMA presidents, including President/CEO Gary Pearl, Executive Vice President/Chief Sales & Marketing Officer Mike Murphy, and current PIMA president, Senior Vice President/Director of Affinity Group Business George Bode. Founder John P. Pearl was also honored with the prestigious PIMA Legend Award in 1999.
