- What is your idea for how we should improve public perception that we are a tech company beyond our insurance company brand? Consider specific methods, approaches, and/or channels.

- What about your idea would resonate with you or a target audience? (Please specify your target demographic if applicable.)
Considerations:
- Your idea could be a specific commercial, promotional channel, event, message, etc. Please explain in enough detail for us to understand why it would be impactful to you or a target audience. Broad / vague ideas will not be as useful to us.
