The launch today marks Appier&#8217;s debut in the&#13;<br \/>\nconversational commerce and marketing space, a move that is in line with their&#13;<br \/>\ncustomer-centric approach to full-funnel marketing strategy. BotBonnie is&#13;<br \/>\navailable across the Asia Pacific markets in English, Japanese and Traditional&#13;<br \/>\nChinese.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>According to Gartner<sup>1<\/sup>,&#13;<br \/>\ncustomer loyalty is created when businesses help customers solve their&#13;<br \/>\nproblems, but at the same time, customer service interactions are nearly four&#13;<br \/>\ntimes more likely to lead to disloyalty than loyalty. Gartner cites the&#13;<br \/>\ndeployment of chatbots as one strategy to increase digital containment where&#13;<br \/>\ncustomers can self-serve to solve their issues i.e. freeing up customer service&#13;<br \/>\nagent&#8217;s time to work on solving priority issues for customers. An omnichannel&#13;<br \/>\nchatbot platform like BotBonnie is adept at identifying marketing scenarios and&#13;<br \/>\noffers great flexibility for customers to implement their chat solutions in one stop across multiple messaging&#13;<br \/>\nchannels, so businesses can boost sales and build customer loyalty. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>By adding BotBonnie&#13;<br \/>\nto Appier&#8217;s suite of AI-powered solutions, Appier customers can benefit from&#13;<br \/>\nthe full strength of an AI-informed platform and analytics to navigate the&#13;<br \/>\nentire customer journey seamlessly across offline and online environments. Data&#13;<br \/>\nenrichment from conversational data analysis can contribute to the learning&#13;<br \/>\ncapabilities of AI models and enable more robust predictions of customer&#13;<br \/>\nbehaviour and take personalized services to the next level. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>In addition,&#13;<br \/>\nBotBonnie can foster Appier&#8217;s product synergy from user prospecting and&#13;<br \/>\nacquiring, retention and engagement to the transaction. By leveraging&#13;<br \/>\nconversational AI chatbot, customers can identify and retarget high LTV&#13;<br \/>\ncustomers through CrossX advertising solutions, then direct customers to the&#13;<br \/>\nsocial media channels like Facebook Messenger, LINE and even Google Business&#13;<br \/>\nMessages to continue automatic customer engagement. By analyzing customers&#8217;&#13;<br \/>\ninteractions, AIQUA can trigger personalized web\/app pushes or AiDEAL can&#13;<br \/>\ndeliver suitable coupons to convert new users to customers. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore,&#13;<br \/>\nconversational data analysis allows companies to better understand customer&#13;<br \/>\ntrends and adjust the level of personalization at every touchpoint. For&#13;<br \/>\ninstance, customers can benefit from the conversational unstructured data&#13;<br \/>\nutilized by AIXON, Appier&#8217;s data science platform to generate valuable business&#13;<br \/>\ninsights and enhance prediction accuracy. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>Conversational&#13;<br \/>\ncommerce is a global phenomenon on the rise as total spend over conversational&#13;<br \/>\ncommerce channels will reach $290 billion by 2025 globally; rising from $41&#13;<br \/>\nbillion in 2021.
