You’ve been asked a simple question: “What does it cost to host this application?” But the answer is anything but simple. The platform sits across multiple data centres. The app spans a few VMs, shares a backup system, uses licensed monitoring, and touches five different teams. Your CMDB should help, but it’s rigid, outdated, or incomplete. And yet, you still need to provide a number, clear, explainable, and grounded in reality.

Read MoreHow Goosehead Insurance revamped Its marketing strategy & boosted performance with Jasper
Goosehead Insurance uses Jasper for content creation and distribution to manage their marketing campaigns. The results include increased content output, ROI, and speed of delivery while maintaining control of brand voice.
In an increasingly competitive insurance landscape, Goosehead Insurance, an independent personal lines insurance agency operating throughout the United States, found itself facing a significant hurdle: how to scale up its marketing production without compromising on quality or overburdening their small and recently established marketing team. With a need for fresh, engaging content that could capture their target audiences, Goosehead turned to Jasper - an AI-powered content creation and distribution platform - to transform their marketing approach.
Seeking an innovative, efficient solution for content creation, Goosehead Insurance opted to employ Jasper's AI-driven capabilities to optimize its marketing program. The platform offered an extensive suite of features that enabled Goosehead's marketing team that includes Leslyn Felder and Jaycie Nesbit, to swiftly create and disseminate a wide variety of content. This included blog articles for the company's online learning center, email campaigns targeting potential and existing clients, and repurposing social media content to maximize reach and engagement.
Jasper's strategic integration into Goosehead's marketing workflow led to a substantial increase in productivity and allowed the company to witness several performance gains. Goosehead observed the following impressive results:
In the first quarter of the year, the marketing team wrote 44 new articles for their learning center blog—a volume possible because of Jasper. The platform allowed them to ramp up their content production speed, enabling them to consistently publish five articles each week. From this material, the team rapidly created social media posts to support their website traffic goals. Leslyn said, “Jasper enables me to create at a pace that ensures I can attend to the variety of my responsibilities and still achieve our goals. From one piece of content, I can easily develop derivative assets and have time to analyze performance, rather than spending it all on the creation itself.”
Goosehead observed a remarkable 22% click-through rate increase in email campaigns utilizing Jasper. The team attributed this improvement to the platform's ability to craft and test compelling content that resonated deeply with recipients, enticing them to engage further.
Instead of struggling to customize content for three disparate audiences, Jaycie commented, “I took concepts that worked in past campaigns, assigned specific tone and style to each audience and Jasper created the appropriate outputs for me.” With Jasper Brand Voice and email templates, Jaycie can now work rapidly with control across separate segments, writing 30 emails a month. Added personalization and segmentation contributed to a 20% increase in revenue between Q3 and Q4. “Jasper allows me to move more quickly and more confidently for each of my target segments; I can go to market faster, test messages faster, and make improvements faster.”
Leveraging Jasper's capabilities and with input from their Customer Success Manager, Goosehead's marketing team was able to overhaul their franchise-facing website and achieve significant time savings. Using content improver and paragraph generator in Jasper, the team updated this website to be more relevant to their franchise audiences. Since the content was adjusted for a new audience, it took a complete revision for every aspect of the website. Jasper helped develop benefits statements, FAQ documents, differentiation copy and market analysis to bring depth and specificity to the multi-paged website. As a result, Goosehead achieved an impressive 87% increase month over month in visibility for their franchise pages. This invaluable partnership helped elevate Goosehead’s brand and drive business growth.
The successful integration of Jasper's AI-driven solution into Goosehead Insurance's marketing program has had a positive impact on the team’s productivity and performance. With the help of their dedicated customer success manager and access to the platform's features and capabilities, the marketing team could effectively scale their operations and establish themselves as a department that was creating new effective content and generating revenue for the business. Leslyn puts it best; "We are a small but mighty team, and Jasper adds the muscle power to make us mightier."

Embark on a culinary journey through the ever-evolving world of digital leadership with our third edition of the CIONET Cookbook: Recipes for Digital Success. Unveiling the intricate trilemma faced by today’s Master Chefs, our trailblazing European CIOs address a challenge at the nexus of customer interests, digital transformation strategies, and IT modernisation. Their secret? Synchronising the gearing between customer, business, and technology to create a frictionless movement through the digital landscape.
The CIONET Cookbook uses the analogy of a five-star restaurant to explain the importance of optimally integrated technology, with the CIO as Master Chef. In order to provide the best service to its customers, a top restaurant must have the right atmosphere, an inviting menu, a well-equipped kitchen, talented and committed front-of-house and kitchen staff and smooth-running processes that ensure an enjoyable experience for diners.
Geopolitical tensions have dominated the headlines for over two years now. In this context, the cyber threat landscape is also evolving rapidly. The protection and security of critical infrastructure – both physical and digital – is becoming increasingly important.
