Selling products through frictionless voice commands

Smart speakers have achieved critical mass in the UK, with 43% households containing a voice-activated device, representing a “powerful tool” for brands.

As consumer habits continue to change, voice commerce complements mobile and e-commerce. Smart speakers are in use by 43% of UK households, and they are used as part of 72% of households’ daily routines. Since Covid-19, the adoption of smart speakers has increased 12% each month and audio remains the most popular activity on them. Voice transactions are expected to be worth 164 billion dollars by 2025.

Black Friday Actionable Audio Ads: what you need to know

So what do we have to offer? You can choose to increase brand awareness and improve customer experience with a Buy It Now audio campaign, or you can send listeners vouchers and coupons directly to their phones as a way to thank them for their interest in your brand, leveraging the new ‘Send To Phone’ Alexa capability. In addition, listeners can ask Alexa to ‘find out more’ and get the chance to receive ‘brochure requests’ directly to their phone. Your smart speaker takes care of everything.

A perfect example of a Buy It Now voice skill is our Berocca Boost campaign. As a result of listening to the audio ad, listeners say, “Alexa, open Berocca Boost” making it quick and easy for them to purchase the product or find out more. Try it yourself.

If you’re looking for simple engagement or to activate an offer, we recommend that you send vouchers, coupons or links directly to their phone with a Send To Phone audio campaign. We recently worked with Diageo on their Talisker Tasting Experience. The voice skill educates users on how to taste the product and get to know Talisker’s flavours. The Talisker Tasting Experience also invites the taster to ask questions about the story behind the whisky. Using Amazon’s Send To Phone functionality, the voice experience can now deliver a link with a coupon to the consumer’s phone.

Our Actionable Audio Ad campaigns are brought to life by smart speakers, they unite personalisation, transparency and humanity, ensuring your customer interactions are handled in the best possible way, without any friction.
