Case Study
Summary
At the start of 2011, Bupa, as a consumer facing retail brand, did not exist. By the end of the year Bupa was successfully launched, had migrated the member bases of three of Australia’s most loved and largest PHI brands and carved out a new market position, distinct and separate from the fiercely competitive category. Results: 1. Awareness of Bupa: 142% of target. 2. Connection of legacy brands to Bupa: 119% of target. 3. Consideration of Bupa for PHI: 127% of target. 4. Clear perceptual positioning as “Acts like a healthcare partner”. 5. Total lives growth: 106% of target.
