Session 1: Kick-start with Pango Wheel – Using Games to effectively reach customers

Currently, most businesses only run ads to reach customers. The conversion rate from ads is very low, only 2-5%. Mr. Hoi Pham, Managing Director of DentsuX, revealed that the actual conversion rate often hovers around a mere 1.25%, despite the reported 2-5%. 

The limited data collected through ads provides only basic customer information, leaving businesses with little understanding of their customers’ needs and behaviors. Consequently, businesses endure significant time, effort, and costs to obtain customer data.

Mr. Hoi Pham further emphasized the need for enterprises to explore new avenues for reaching customers organically, optimizing costs, and delivering immediate results. Deploying games on the Master Channel emerges as a powerful solution to address these challenges. By incorporating gamification strategies into their marketing efforts, businesses can create engaging experiences that resonate with customers, foster stronger brand connections, and achieve tangible outcomes.

Mr. Lee Nguyen, CEO & Founder of ByteTech, demonstrated the Pango Wheel game, offering participants an immediate hands-on experience. Through a QR Code hidden in a small box, players could embark on an engaging journey by scanning the code, providing information, and seamlessly joining the game on the Zalo platform.

The game provided an immersive experience for players while simultaneously offering businesses a valuable source of data. Through the PangoCDP – customer data platform, businesses could collect and consolidate customer data, serving as a foundation for effective marketing campaigns.

Nonetheless, concerns regarding the effectiveness of games, the budget required for game development, and the factors influencing users’ choice of a brand’s game over other gaming applications have been raised. These inquiries were promptly addressed by Mr. Lee Nguyen, who introduced the concept of the “Pango Entertainment System.”

This innovative system encompasses a diverse range of games that can be swiftly developed and tailored to meet specific campaign objectives. By leveraging this system, businesses can optimize costs, ensure seamless integration on a single platform, and provide users with a convenient and captivating gaming experience. In this context, Zalo serves as the sole Master Channel for implementing the Pango Entertainment System.

Zalo, with its 74 million regular users, demonstrated its effectiveness through impressive statistics:

Ms. Dinh Mong Kha, CEO of VietGuys, recommended Zalo as an excellent choice for businesses seeking to build a Master Channel.

Ms. Dinh Mong Kha, the CEO of VietGuys, adds her insights, stating, “In the current landscape, businesses have various options to establish Master Channels, including SMS, Viber, and more. However, Zalo stands out as a brilliant choice for businesses to optimize costs and achieve remarkable efficiency. Through voucher drops, sampling, survey, or the implementation of Pango Entertainment System, businesses can leverage games, which are regularly updated and seamlessly integrated. This not only makes the interaction between brands and users more captivating but also enhances overall engagement to unprecedented levels.”

UrBox – Redeeming gifts & paying rewards on digital platforms

The gift policy plays a crucial role in the successful implementation of Gamification on the Master Channel.

During the event, Mr. Bui Hoai Nam, the CEO of UrBox, highlighted five essential criteria that businesses should consider when selecting gifts. These criteria include ensuring the attractiveness of the gifts, creating a sense of fun, adding value such as upgrades or rewards for loyal customers, suitability for the target audience, and convenience.
