“Gamification in Asia?”

@keizng | @gametize

Why do you care about Asia?

You are in a global company, and want to engage the workforce in Asia

You want to/already have customers in Asia, and you want to engage them

Let’s keep to China, Korea, Vietnam, and Singapore

@keizng | @gametize

Why should you care about Asia? By 2011, there were 485 million Internet users in China, spending 1.3 billion hours in total on the Internet daily

Over 100 million gamers in China that brands can engage through gamification

China will account for half of the world’s online and mobile game market by 2014

Some lessons/observations

§  Badges/ virtual items are insufficient to engage audience (Foursquare did not replicate success here)

§  Extrinsic rewards upfront are pertinent to the experience

§  Choice of channels varies for different countries. Multiple channels are necessary if targeting multiple regions

§  Employee engagement and training are evidently more painful than consumer engagement (marketers often rely on immature KPIs such as Facebook like)

§  Gamification can be a big distinctive advantage for now with little adoption and knowledge (growing gradually though)
