CleverTap’s AI-based Recommendation Engine helps Eatigo achieve 100% growth in reservations

Award-winning online restaurant reservation platform Eatigo, collaborates with CleverTap – the all-in-one engagement platform, to enhance customer engagement and boost reservations. Through CleverTap’s AI-powered recommendations engine, Eatigo was able to offer its users relevant and timely recommendations with precision, ensuring higher conversions. The platform’s orchestration and analytics capabilities enabled Eatigo to coordinate complex, multi-channel marketing campaigns at scale and track the performance of its campaigns. 

Set up in 2013 with a mission to “connect empty tables with empty stomachs”, Eatigo is a leading online reservation platform. The brand has expanded rapidly, seating over 6 million diners, and accumulated over 6000 restaurants across Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and the Philippines.

By harnessing CleverTap’s AI/ML-powered capability suite: Clever.AI, Eatigo was able to hyper-personalize its engagement through more than 10 automations and nearly 100 journeys. As a result, Eatigo’s users were 2X more likely to make reservations. Additionally, CleverTap’s Liquid tag and journey features enable Eatigo to create omni-channel experiences capturing diner’s attention and driving reservations. 

Commenting on the collaboration, Surakan Kittiperakorn, Regional Marketing Lead, Eatigo said, “Collaborating with CleverTap has granted us access to their comprehensive and dynamic suite of capabilities, enabling us to achieve our goals and grow our business in the Southeast Asia region. Utilizing CleverTap for local campaigns has helped us craft personalized marketing campaigns and messaging that resonates deeply with our users. The precision and efficiency of their AI-powered recommendations have significantly boosted our engagement metrics, allowing us to connect diners with the perfect dining experiences. We are excited about the future and look forward to continuing to innovate and grow with the support of CleverTap’s robust platform.”

Sidharth Pisharoti, Chief Revenue Officer, CleverTap, said, “In today’s highly competitive restaurant industry, customer engagement and personalized experiences are crucial for success. At CleverTap, we understand the unique challenges faced by businesses in this sector and are committed to providing innovative solutions that drive growth and customer satisfaction. Our AI-powered platform enables companies like Eatigo to harness the power of data to create tailored marketing strategies that resonate with their audience. We are thrilled to support Eatigo in their mission to enhance the dining experience and are excited to see the impact our collaboration has had on their reservation rates.” 

Eatigo leveraged CleverTap’s AI-based recommendation engine to tackle a few obstacles. When the customer cancels their reservation, the engine comes up with 5 other options to increase conversion rates. If another user scrolls through the options but doesn’t make a reservation, the engine offers custom suggestions to convince them. Furthermore, CleverTap’s engine proactively reaches out to customers who made their last reservation a month ago, via a multi-channel approach to increase the chances of their return to the app.

Cross-channel marketing strategies boost conversion rates by up to 31%; CleverTap Report

CleverTap, the all-in-one engagement platform, today released its market research report on “Unraveling the Cross-Channel Marketing Strategy”. The report highlights the necessity of tailoring marketing approaches to resonate with regional audiences while maintaining a cohesive global presence. It underscores the importance of understanding local and industry-specific nuances to optimize cross-channel strategies as businesses grow. 

The report has looked at more than 600 businesses across the globe and examined factors that could influence or shape the omni-channel strategy such as business growth stage, geographical nuances, industry dynamics, customer lifestyle milestones, and user retention.  The cross-channel strategy of a business involves selecting the right number of channels and the right mix – depending on the stage of growth the business will be in at any given point in time and where the customer is in their lifecycle. A key indicator of the stage of growth a company is at is the number of monthly active users. It is observed that businesses witness up to 49% increase in conversion rates by using four or more channels as part of their omni-channel strategies. 

While email remains dominant in markets like the US and UK, SMS holds significant sway in regions like China and the US, and WhatsApp emerges as a powerhouse in South America and Asia. The report found that adopting an omni-channel marketing strategy impacted the following key areas: app stickiness, conversion rates, and onboarding rates. Key highlights include- 

Engagement: 

  • 23% uptick in engagement on Fintech platforms with email, push notifications and in-app messages.
  • 16% increase in engagement for Subscription platforms with email, while combining it with other channels can take it beyond  20% 
  • 13% elevated engagement in Gaming platforms with a combination of email, push-notifications, in-app messages and app inbox.

Conversion rates:

  • Up to 31% conversion rates in Fintech apps, where email, push notifications, and in-app messages are pivotal.
  • 16% uptick in conversions in Subscription apps from push notifications and in-app messages
  • 10% increase in conversion in the Gaming industry from push notifications and in-app messages.
  • 6% increase in conversions in Ecommerce as a result of a cross-channel strategy incorporating in-app, app inbox, email and push notifications.

App-stickiness: 

  • Over 28% increase for Fintech platforms with more than three channels. 
  • 30% to 70% increase stickiness in Subscription platforms, such as streaming platforms,or grocery shopping, with two to four channels. 
  • 32% increase in stickiness in Gaming platforms, with more than three channels.
  • 26% increase in stickiness in E-commerce platforms, with more than three channels.

Commenting on the report, Jacob Joseph, VP – Data Science, CleverTap said, “Many organizations often dive into customer engagement with a narrower focus, which, while important, can limit their effectiveness. Our latest report highlights the crucial need for a holistic approach to truly drive impactful results. By strategically utilizing a mix of channels, businesses can significantly enhance their engagement efforts. The findings demonstrate that a comprehensive, all-in-one MarTech stack is vital for marketers who must navigate the complexities of diverse channels. This approach not only addresses the numerous challenges but also amplifies overall engagement and effectiveness, ensuring that no customer touchpoint is overlooked and every interaction is optimized for success.”

CleverTap’s 2024 Market Research Report Unveils that Brands Implementing Higher AI Adoption See 4x Boost in Conversions

CleverTap, the all-in-one engagement platform, today released its market research report on “The AI Edge in Customer Engagement”. The report sheds light on how AI is the next frontier in the customer engagement domain and how brands can implement AI for the right use cases and gain maturity in AI adoption to drive a boost in conversion and growth in business value. 

The research conducted by CleverTap highlights insights from analyzing 42 global brands, running campaigns for millions of customers across more than 50 countries. The research participants included a broad spectrum of professionals, from technical specialists in AI to marketing strategists, including profiles like VPs, CMOs, Data Science leads, Product Managers, and Marketers.

The research study serves as a guide for brands navigating the implementation of AI. Brands at the initial stages of AI adoption should aim to progress towards more advanced levels. This will involve brands needing to shift from using AI for operational efficiency to leveraging it for personalization, experimentation, and ultimately, strategic planning and decision-making.

CleverTap has found that in the customer engagement domain:

  • 54% respondents achieved faster content generation and campaign rollout with AI 
  • 82% of respondents have experienced increased operational efficiency with AI by streamlining workflows and automating content generation
  • 64% of respondents have used AI to build personalized experiences and content resonating with individual preferences at scale with real-time experimentation for optimal engagement
  • 39% of respondents leveraged AI for automated decision-making and taking more informed decisions by analyzing large volumes of data, predicting outcomes and strategizing for the next best action

In terms of adoption of AI by teams within a brand:

  • 71.4% of respondents highlight that AI capabilities are most extensively utilized by content teams, underscoring the pivotal role AI plays in content generation 
  • Followed by growth marketing teams at 57.1% indicating a robust application of AI in strategizing and expanding marketing efforts. Central marketing and product teams also integrate AI into their operations, although to a lesser extent

CleverTap found that brands today miss out on 4x higher conversions and improved business value due to inefficient AI adoption. CleverTap also assessed the impact of adoption of Clever.AI, CleverTap’s AI engine in brands by classifying these into three levels based on their AI-driven use cases in customer engagement.

The research study categorizes brands based on the value they have realized through three distinct levels of AI adoption. These classifications are determined by their use of Clever.AI’s capabilities in driving operational efficiency, enhancing personalization and experimentation at scale, and automating decision-making. 

  • In Level 189% respondents observed operational efficiency as the primary benefit when utilizing Clever.AI’s capabilities
  • In Level 290% of respondents observed scalability of personalization and experimentation as their top gain from Clever.AI’s capabilities
  • In Level 3, around 67% of participants in this category selected AI-automated decision making as their foremost benefit from integrating Clever.AI

The report further looked at the impact of AI on conversion rates and on business value. For more information, download the report here

Commenting on the report, Jacob Joseph, VP – Data Science, CleverTap, said, “AI is the catalyst reshaping every facet of today’s brands – from optimizing operations and enriching customer engagement to revolutionizing decision-making. The insights highlighted in our 2024 market research report offers a great strategic approach for brands at the initial stages of AI adoption should aim to progress gaining maturity and achieve significant improvements in conversion rates and business value. After all, AI in customer engagement or in a tech stack is no longer just an enhancement, but a necessity for a competitive advantage while addressing evolving customer expectations.”

UAE’s Swan Achieved 40% Boost In Email Campaign View Rates With CleverTap

CleverTap, the all-in-one engagement platform today announced that Swan, one of UAE’s most trusted groceries and home services app, achieved a 40% boost in view rates of email campaigns after leveraging CleverTap’s tools.

Swan is an app-based e-commerce platform that strives to create a personalized shopping experience for each customer. Established in 2019 in the UAE, Swan has grown from a small e-commerce app to one of the biggest and most trusted e-commerce applications for groceries and home services in the UAE. 

Recognizing the value in users who already have the app installed, Swan sought to ensure they keep returning to make transactions. To achieve successful engagement with this base, the key focus areas were: building precise target segments, crafting effective incentives and messages, and pinpointing the optimal timing and channels to maximize engagement. Robust measurement at each stage was critical to determine the effectiveness of messages, channels, and timing, individually. 

Swan found the ideal solution for enhancing customer engagement through CleverTap’s comprehensive and integrated approach. Leveraging CleverTap’s smart segmentation capability, Swan organized users into groups based on their transaction activity. They conducted extensive A/B testing for creatives and content that were regularly used as part of their messaging strategy. By employing multiple channels based on specific contexts, they found that emails and push notifications were most effective in reactivating dormant users. Personalized experiences were crafted for each user through message customization. Swan relied extensively on the Analytics feature to assess the impact of their campaigns. 

Deploying CleverTap helped Swan achieve the following:

  • 40% boost in view rates of email campaigns thanks to systematic experimentation on content and creative
  • Swan saw a 3% activation rate of targeted dormant users
  • Reactivation campaigns drove a 15% share of incremental orders

Solomon George, Managing Director, Swan, said, “CleverTap’s combination of analytics and orchestration has been integral to Swan’s growth and customer engagement journey. With CleverTap’s user-personalization prowess, we were able to drive 15% of incremental orders from reactivation campaigns alone. This level of growth across multiple cohorts and periods solidifies Swan as a reliable and trusted shopping companion.”

Sidharth Pisharoti, Chief Revenue Officer, CleverTap, said, “Reactivating dormant users is essential for modern businesses, especially with the exorbitant customer acquisition costs of today. It opens up a new realm of untapped potential for any app-first business. Partnering with an industry frontrunner like Swan, we witnessed this notion play out in full swing. Swan saw a 40% boost in view rates of email campaigns after deploying our all-in-one platform. It’s a testament to our platform’s prowess in driving unmatched customer engagement. We’re excited to bring more such significant wins for Swan in the future.”

eCommerce marketers use only 20% of the best performing emojis: CleverTap’s Art of Emoji Report

CleverTap, the all-in-one engagement platform, today launched the eCommerce edition of its Art of Emoji Report, with a view to demonstrate which emojis are the most common, which ones work best, and which to avoid. Since inception in 1998, emojis have been a very effective medium of communicating tone, subtext, irony, among other things plain text cannot. According to the Emojipedia Annual Report 2023, there was a remarkable 77% YoY surge in emoji usage. 

Today, brands have discovered the immense value in emojis, with 60% of global push notifications containing them. The CleverTap Art of Emoji report found that notifications containing emojis drive a staggering 12% higher click-through rate compared to those without. Therefore, brands see them as a persuasive and accessible tool to build more meaningful connections with their customers. 

CleverTap analyzed 10 billion data points across 40 million push notifications sent by eCommerce platforms globally, to understand customer preferences, the impact of emojis, and how marketers are using them. It found that regardless of region, eCommerce brands incorporate only 20% of the best-performing emojis in their messages; while in some regions, up to 30% of the most used emojis are underperformers. 

To help marketers better engage customers via emojis, the report breaks down the performance of various emojis by region—outlining the most commonly used ones, the best-performing ones, and the ones to avoid. Below are a few examples from within the report:

From a quirky novelty to a mainstay on any device, emojis have come such a long way. They have ingrained themselves into the fabric of modern communication and helped us convey so much more than if we were only limited to text. 

“Emojis are a potent tool at the disposal of any marketer that, when used well, can instantly make a message feel alive. But, just like personal communications, using it anywhere and everywhere would disorient the recipient.” said Jacob Joseph, VP – Data Science, CleverTap. “Marketers must experiment with various emojis, see what works best for their target audience, but use it only when it’s contextually relevant. Else it may lose its potency. Remember, you want to keep things fresh, relatable and most importantly, culturally sensitive when it comes to deploying such a persuasive tool within your marketing toolbox.”

Speaking on the future of emojis in customer engagement, Jacob added, “With advancements within MarTech, brands will be able to hyper-personalize this experience by honing in on which emojis work best with individual users. Eventually, emojis will be dynamically adjustable based on the sentiment and context of the conversation, thus enhancing the emotional depth of communication. Alongside, more ubiquitous integrations of emojis with AR/VR (such as Apple Animojis) will allow customers to express themselves more vividly within immersive environments. It could redefine the way customers interact with products and services, enhancing their overall shopping experiences.”
