Results
Norliv/Velliv has had a successful start with positive attention in the press (Berlingske and FinansWatch e.g.) and from the stakeholders when the organisation opened for applications.
In six months we obtained strong gains for Norliv:
- Up to 5 times as many visitors on the website (from around 4.000 monthly up to 15-20.000)
- 1/3 more subscribers (from 15.546 to 20.492)
- 6 times as many subscribers for the newsletter for professional experts (from 96 to 575).
With a solid basis for communication on digital and analogue platforms Velliv Foreningen was well prepared for opening up for the first applications and engage in conversations with the press and stakeholders.
