The Challenge🕵️

The telco brand faced a major challenge in engaging with customers digitally, especially with physical shops closed due to COVID-19. Their goal was to initiate test-and-learn activities to explore ways of integrating various channel assets. The brand aimed to create a seamless omnichannel experience while acknowledging the unique qualities of each channel. The desire to foster confident purchases and build customer trust was at the heart of their strategy.

The Solution🔑

The brand embraced giosg's solution, integrating it into live broadcasting. This innovative approach blends the brand's online and physical channels, making it unique in the UK market. Through live product broadcasts, customers can watch and interact. They can ask questions in real-time, enabling presenters to customize the broadcast.

Sometimes, customers need to speak to someone for advice during their decision-making process. Here, the Live Broadcast solution shines. The UK Telco brand measures its performance by looking at attributable conversion rates. They compare the conversion percentage with the conversion rate of web visitors who have watched the live broadcasts. Interestingly, they observed that viewers of the broadcasts were more likely to make a purchase. This is because customers feel better about their choices to buy when the brand's presenters give them expert help and let them ask questions in real-time.

 

“What we’ve done up until now is really impressive and has got the backing of the business and the board. We are moving forward with our Live Platform as our permanent channel and it will be a vital part of our omnichannel strategy.
