SI’s success story with MOSL  

SI has changed the digital identity of several leading brands.  This success story highlights SI’s work done for MOSL and what impact it brought to a conventional BFSI organization such as MOSL, when MOSL decided to take one step forward, leverage modern marketing technology, and partner with a competent entity such as SI.

Motilal Oswal Financial Services Limited (MOSL), a highly traditional organization in the Indian Financial Services sector, grappled with challenges in maintaining operations and providing a satisfactory customer experience in the rapidly evolving digital landscape. The lack of last-mile connectivity led to missed revenue opportunities, and MOSL’s digital ecosystem inconsistencies damaged its reputation. Unclaimed listings, featuring incorrect addresses and contact details, resulted in a disappointing experience for those seeking accessible Motilal Oswal Franchise partners or investment opportunities. Complicated further by the pandemic, MOSL’s customer-connect started suffering, negatively impacting the brand and its growth prospects. MOSL’s target audience, which mostly covers the age group of 25 to 60 and from tier I, II, and III cities, and in particular anyone who’s looking for financial and investments-related assistance, found it extremely difficult to engage with the brand. 

Recognizing the need for a closer connection between customers and franchise partners, MOSL sought to enhance its digital presence and differentiate itself from the competition. Consequently, MOSL joined hands with SingleInterface, to transform its virtual existence. The collaboration with SingleInterface provided MOSL with advanced hyperlocal capabilities, enabling them to connect with customers in the last mile through digital ‘search’. The information of 4500+ franchises was sanitized, contributing to improved search rankings and greater local prominence on search engines This technology not only generated new leads but also facilitated growth opportunities, offering customers accurate and relevant information about MOSL’s branches.

An advanced technology campaign helped MOSL stay ahead of the competition by delivering the right messaging, relevance, and local connection with consumers. The campaign triggered purchase intent, embraced customers in ‘buying mode,’ and contributed to branch-level growth as well as overall brand impact.

To strengthen accessibility, build local visibility, and establish credibility, MOSL leveraged digital business listings. The team also adopted mobile-optimized e-commerce-enabled location pages. This brought MOSL’s brand closer to consumers, increasing consistency across search engines, and enhancing eventual brand recall.

The digital transformation powered by SingleInterface’s SaaS-enabled product offerings resulted in tangible growth for MOSL. The focus on an online-to-offline approach increased footfall by decluttering MOSL’s digital landscape, ensuring accurate availability of financial information, and improving accessibility for customers. As digital engagement and digital customer activities started growing for MOSL, various touchpoints and analytics were tracked and gathered through SingleInterface’s advanced reporting capabilities and user-friendly dashboard. 

A unique digital strategy at the location level ensured that MOSL could be discovered by customers searching for franchisees online. SingleInterface’s product stack cleansed, verified, and updated data for each location, expanding MOSL’s social and digital reach organically.

The partnership resulted in an improved brand reputation, increased discoverability of franchisees, and attracted more local customers. SingleInterface’s marketing-to-commerce SaaS-enabled product offering, along with location-based search optimization, played a crucial role in driving increased customer engagement and conversion rates.

Through this collaboration, MOSL transformed uncertainty into beneficial outcomes, offering customers a seamless online-to-offline journey. The measurable engagement resulted in substantial outcomes:

  • Overall Direction Requests increased by 70%.
  • Overall Calls and new potential customer leads increased by 200K.
  • Overall discovery searches/views rose to 27 million.
  • Overall ROI increased by nearly 10X.

This successful digital transformation showcased the impact of leveraging advanced technology for hyperlocal marketing, providing MOSL with a competitive edge in today’s dynamic business landscape.
