Associate professor of marketing David Alexander was featured in an article by WalletHub about car insurance marketing. He was quoted as an expert on the use of celebrity endorsements within the car insurance industry.

I think it is also a signal that a car insurance company is not trying to differentiate on price. The celebrity provides the introduction, and the car insurance company works to create a package that includes whatever features appeal to the consumer which justifies the price.
