The Challenge
Creating transparency around value and growth drivers to enable the transformation into a data-driven platform organization.
The scenario
A broader portfolio required
a more connected way of steering growth
Operating across multiple interconnected products and services created both opportunity and complexity. TD Reply’s client that combines traditional assistance services for travelers with its own offerings in the areas of travel, insurance, and leisure products was facing a dilemma: developments in one area could influence performance elsewhere, making it difficult to understand value creation through isolated business-unit perspectives.
A stronger outside-in view of customer needs and emerging market opportunities was needed, alongside greater transparency into growth drivers and a common basis for data-driven decision-making.
The ambition: connect customer, market, and business intelligence to optimize today’s performance while identifying tomorrow’s growth opportunities.
The solution
From market signals to a shared decision base
TD Reply developed an integrated market intelligence approach that systematically evaluated external signals and translated them into a common basis for decision-making. Search behavior and social listening provided an outside-in perspective on changing customer needs, rising topics, and emerging opportunities.
These signals were connected with business performance data to identify areas with clear growth potential and translate them into a steering logic for the broader portfolio. This enabled more informed decisions across business areas and created greater transparency into how individual actions contributed to overall performance
The technology behind It
Commercial Effect Models show what actually works
Commercial Effect Models form the analytical foundation of the steering approach. They evaluate past market and marketing effects and show which channels, timings, touchpoints and actions actually contribute to business performance. This enables ANWB to prioritize investments more precisely and allocate budgets where they demonstrably create impact.
The models are based on retrospective time-series analysis. They condense many individual data points into the few metrics that really matter for steering the business. Instead of tracking a large number of isolated indicators, ANWB focuses on the KPIs with the strongest leverage on the business.
The value goes beyond analysis: robust models provide a reliable foundation for informed decisions and confident prioritization.

The result
From analysis project to consumer-centric mindset shift
The new market intelligence setup created a shared foundation for aligning decisions more closely with customer and market signals. Relevant developments could be identified earlier, while their potential impact could be evaluated across the broader portfolio.
It also enabled more effective steering of paid and owned media, campaigns, and promotions through better decisions on timing, frequency, channels, and content.
Market intelligence became an integral part of ongoing business steering rather than a standalone analytical exercise.
Market intelligence is now a lever for sharper priorities, more effective measures and the way to unlock growth across the portfolio.
