Gamification is a new category this year
because of its rapid rise in importance
within loyalty
In today’s digital and social world,consumers are much more discerning
about how and where they spend their time online.The adoption of
smartphones and tablets,the multi-screen consumption of media and
the movement between devices based on the context of their use is
fundamentally changing the way consumers interact and transact
with brands.As a consequence,marketers need their digital marketing
strategies to work harder in securing consumer attention and keep them
engaged with their brand.
One of the biggest...
One of the largest categories this year,which had to be seriously
shortlisted,gamification is being used for everything from training to
customer engagement.There are criticisms that it is often misinterpreted,
but as it is a new phenomenon it is difficult to set many ground rules.
With smartphones providing anytime anywhere access,the fundamental
objective of gamification is to inspire and motivate individuals to perform
better and achieve more in those activities in which they choose to
participate.It supports positive changes in behaviour by tapping into a
person’s psyche and addressing their unique needs and motivations.
The reasoning behind gamification...
• Achievement – virtual rewards,points or tangible prizes
for achieving goals
• Recognition – earning badges or tokens to demonstrate
status or participation levels or expertise,skills and
capabilities
• Competition – ranking performance against other
consumers by leveraging leaderboards
• Social collaboration – sharing achievements,reviews,
providing recommendations and reinforcing that
behaviour through rewards
We had a tremendous response to the new gamification category this
year,and the ten finalists had to fight some stiff competition to make the
final cut.We very much look forward to announcing the first gamification
winner at the Gala Evening on June 9 – and watching this category go
from strength to strength.
It’s not just a game...
This is
