MoEngage, the Insights-led Customer Engagement platform for consumer brands recently launched its new flagship data report — The Customer Engagement Benchmark (CEB) Report. The report included 6 editions for various locations across the globe, such as North America and Southeast Asia, and covers the latest communication channel benchmarks across four primary verticals – Shopping, Media & Entertainment, Banking, and Travel.
According to a recent report, the Southeast Asian internet economy was worth US$174 billion last year and is expected to reach US$363 billion by 2025. By that year, over 80% of connections in the region will be smartphones. As such, enterprises are feeling an increasing sense of urgency to embrace digital transformation to keep up with today’s consumers as Southeast Asia moves toward 5G networks.
On the other hand, many are concerned about the risk of global economic slowdown due to the risk of global recession in 2023. As consumer brands navigate their way through the recession, the majority are increasing their efforts to drive Customer Engagement and Retention by focusing more on building brand loyalty with existing customers. By leveraging first-party data, brands can understand customer behavior patterns and preferences to better serve relevant and timely recommendations at the right time and on the right communication channel.
MoEngage’s report will help marketing teams across various industries understand the latest digital Customer Engagement strategies in engaging existing customers using the right insights. Within this region, the report has revealed the impact on customers’ experiences in various industries, notably in Southeast Asia:
- Consumers in Southeast Asia are 4.58x more likely to click on Emails that are personalized based on their behaviour
- Southeast Asian shoppers are 1.42x more likely to open Emails that are personalized based on the customer journey
- Shoppers in the region are 2x more likely to click on a Push Notification personalized based on the customer journey
- Southeast Asian travellers are 5.41x more likely to Click on Push Notifications personalized based on their behaviour
“Our report shows that to improve brand loyalty and grow LTV moving forward, businesses in Southeast Asia must analyse customer behaviour and their journey to understand better how to personalise and enhance the overall brand experience,” said Saurabh Madan, General Manager of SEA and ANZ, MoEngage. “This is why we developed a stellar Customer Engagement platform that provides actionable insights and enables businesses to create campaigns across multiple touchpoints.
