Why Do Companies Need LINE Now?
The primary source of information gathering has shifted from TV and newspapers to social media and smartphones, rendering one-way corporate broadcasting ineffective. Consumers now receive information from sources they choose, at their own timing. Companies that fail to adapt to this change cannot reach their customers, regardless of how good their products are.
Furthermore, the customer decision-making process has become complex. It is not uncommon for it to take weeks or months from discovering a product on social media to reading reviews, comparing prices, and finally making a purchase. With an explosive increase in information, a product that once caught a customer's eye is easily overwritten by new information. In an environment where paid ads often just place you side-by-side with competitors, maintaining ongoing touchpoints with customers who have shown initial interest has become the most critical challenge for businesses.
By utilizing LINE, companies can regularly deliver the information customers seek—such as differences from competitors, product appeal, recommended menus, limited-time coupons, and news about events or new offerings.
Solving Industry-Specific Challenges with LINE
If even one of these challenges applies to you, LINE might be the solution. This book introduces success stories of companies that solved their issues using LINE, categorized by specific challenges.
