The Way we Communicate has Changed – How can your Business Benefit?

The primary service was voice calling when cell phones were first introduced. The additional features were designed to facilitate calling like voice mail, caller line identification, redial, and roaming voice calls where folks could call your number and it would reach you anywhere in the world. However, if you were to look at most people’s call records today it would be empty or near empty. Most people communicate using Messaging Applications like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, iMessage and increasingly they are using their Messaging Applications to communicate with Business.

Why is Messaging Critical to your Business Growth?

Long gone are the days when we were tied to our landline phones waiting for a call, mobiles have long since changed how we communicate. In the last few years, we have changed how we communicate on our cell phone, and we primarily communicate using Messaging Apps. In fact, the number of people using Messaging Apps surpassed three billion in 2021, and for most people it is one of three apps: WhatsApp (2B Users), Facebook Messenger (1.3B users), and WeChat (1.2B users primarily China, Asia). There are regional variances, for example in the UK and USA the top Messenger Apps are Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and Snapchat.

In Asia, some of these platforms (WeChat, WhatsApp) have been transformed into super-apps, offering all sorts of features like digital payments, embedded ordering of products and services, live videos, m-commerce, and mini-programs that work inside the messaging platform. Increasingly in Western Europe and North America messaging applications are being used to engage with businesses like airports, airlines, banks. This is because Messaging is an extremely popular way for people to engage and communicate and provide native capabilities directly within the Messaging Apps. By engaging consumers directly from within the Messaging App, this provides a seamless consumer experience and higher conversion rate.
