Forms do more than collect data. They are a valuable business asset: direct purchase conversions, audience profiling, and even the data that shapes better products all depend on the first-party data your forms capture.

With third-party cookies losing their edge, many brands are realizing that their data sits in someone else's hands. For FMCG and household brands, customer data belongs to retail channels; ad targeting that has long relied on cookies keeps getting less accurate in a cookieless world; and consumers increasingly care about their privacy. Social CRM has become a key lever that helps brands own their customer data faster.

Wikipedia defines a persona as “a method for describing target users in marketing planning or business design, often in multiple combinations, which helps planners analyze and set strategies for different user types.” In short, a persona is a method and tool for building a marketing strategy. It lets planners sketch the profile of a product’s audience, and with that profile, we can go further and picture what these target customers like, which issues they care about, and which marketing approaches will win them over, then build a marketing plan around it.

Since 2020, the pandemic has swept the globe, transforming not only our daily lives but also how businesses operate. Going to the office every day gave way to WFH, which has become the norm in many countries. Unable to reach customers the way they used to, many companies began looking for solutions. With third-party cookies being phased out and Apple asking users whether they want to be tracked, the cost of acquiring new customers has risen sevenfold, making customer retention a critical priority.

As the organic reach of Facebook and Instagram fades, many companies and brands are turning to LINE. But a LINE account without member management is missing a leg: it can nurture relationships, yet the data can't sync straight back to your database. LINE has some great advantages: messages go directly to your friends without passing through an algorithm, so they land right on their phones.

How do you know whether your company is growing? Many people have questions about setting KPIs—especially for LINE chat communities, where goals are often vague and LINE is treated as just a traffic source. In reality, a community's reach is powerful: it can become a mini app that keeps users far more engaged.

More and more brands are setting up official accounts on social platforms, mainly to connect more directly with their friends through social interaction. With the Messaging API from LINE Developers, brands can connect a chatbot to their LINE Official Account and engage friends in richer one-on-one conversations. Even the low-volume LINE OA plan can connect to the Messaging API through LINE Developers.

On social media, Facebook has a Share button, Instagram lets you repost to Stories, and Twitter has retweets. Nearly every social platform has sharing built in so content can spread quickly. Sharing on chat apps, by contrast, is one-way push. Most brands use their LINE channels to send deals and giveaway announcements, which people rarely feel like forwarding.

Member management is often equated with customer relationship management (CRM). Social CRM goes further, helping businesses better understand customers and markets, lift conversion rates, retain customers and build long-term relationships, and extend customer LTV (lifetime value) so customers keep buying and even recommend you to others.

There are now plenty of first-party data CRM (customer relationship management) solutions, such as DMPs and CDPs. They all respond to tighter rules on collecting third-party data, as privacy regulations like the GDPR force businesses to handle user data with growing care. Yet many voices online are waiting for Google or Facebook to offer more solutions, and some see no real urgency: if Chrome blocked third-party cookies tomorrow, they argue, the urgency alone would bring all kinds of solutions.

One-to-one marketing means personalized messages built on data and user profiles, but how do you actually do it? By posting and designing chatbots through an SCRM, you can easily learn what your LINE friends really want. Whenever a friend interacts with a post or link you publish, the system automatically tags them, and you can then use those tags to send segmented posts.

LINE and other chat apps are private spaces, and official accounts that send irrelevant messages often see high block rates, which makes chat communities notoriously hard to run. With a Social CRM, you can track every member's status and journey in your account, and that extra insight gives your conversations a more human touch.

When a LINE or Telegram chat community turns into one-way broadcasts, it becomes nothing more than a business pushing ads at users. Social platforms and ad platforms alike are working hard to serve personalized content, so a chat community can't just push the same message to everyone. The first question to ask: in what situations do users interact with you through your LINE Official Account?

In the first half of 2020, podcasts suddenly took off in Taiwan. Individuals and brands alike jumped in, from YouTubers and livestreamers to the creative industries and finance. Some, like Bailingguo News, staked their claim before podcasts were popular, while others, like Gooaye and Taiwan's No.1 Commute Brand, became overnight hits.
