STRATEGY
Vietnam's online food delivery market had been rapidly growing, with no signs of slowing down. The market had been valued at 33 million USD in 2018 and was expected to reach around 38 million USD in 2020, with an average growth rate of 11% in the next five years. As of 2021, Shopee Food dominated the market with a 42% market share, followed by GrabFood (40%). Beamin and GoFood shared the remaining position, both accounting for 9%. Despite being a latecomer to the Online Food Delivery (OFD) market, GoFood (by GoJek) ambitiously aimed to be the customer's top choice. To achieve this, GoFood faced the challenge of winning over users in an era of saturated choices and overwhelming advertising.To truly stand out in a crowded market, we implemented three key strategies that transformed our brand from just another option to an impactful brand that triggers action. We first connected with our audience with an insightful message on an emotional level, tapping into the essence of what makes the food lovers community unique and special. Next, we partnered with Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) whose voices resonated with our local audience, amplifying our message and elevating our brand to new heights. From there, we created a holistic approach both from the brand and from the users to create an ecosystem of content with various yet relevant contexts, leveraging social media and other platforms to spread our message far and wide and trigger action. Through these three strategies, we were able to not only win over users but also inspire them to take action and become loyal members of our community.
INSIGHT
The food industry is strongly linked to emotions and preferences, and this is especially true in Vietnam, where food holds great cultural importance. Vietnamese street food culture is renowned for its variety and richness, and it is not just about the food itself, but also about the social experience of eating it. In recent years, this culture has gained international recognition, with many food bloggers and travel writers praising the quality and diversity of dishes available in Vietnam's bustling markets and street corners. GoFood aims to create emotional connections with Vietnamese users in a distinctive manner from established brands, while also addressing psychological and dietary needs to increase conversion rates.One important consideration for achieving these goals was the role of social media in building brand presence and connecting with target users. GoFood explored various social media channels and created a cohesive strategy for each platform to engage with Vietnamese users and showcase the brand's unique personality. This included leveraging user-generated content, partnering with local influencers, and creating visually appealing and shareable content that aligned with the brand's values and mission.
CREATIVE IDEA
In Vietnam, for centuries, street food merchants have had their own form of advertising, which is Tiếng Rao - The iconic street cries of street hawkers. It’s so signature that every Vietnamese can recognize Tiếng Rao and powerful enough to evoke the food craving feeling instantlyVietnamese people when thinking about food throughout the streets - the sound of street vendors - into a mark that caused an intuitive "appetizer" feeling, and integrate that cultural significance into the social media landscape for a one-of-a-kind campaign. With this high level of resonance with food, the chance that people take on impulse and have no thought to get the food right away is high, triggering them to take immediate action on ordering on GoFood.The creative power with a local element is more empowered by the influence of Miss Vietnam Thuỳ Tiên - the lead KOL in the campaign came to place. Optimizing the image of a proud Miss representing Vietnam, as well as being close, simple, and having endless passion for food, Thuỳ Tiên expected to contribute significantly the spreading of the cry “Đủ món bạn mê, GoFood Đêêê” on social media and in every order of users.
CONNECTION PLAN
We had successfully launched a digital film featuring Thùy Tiên, utilizing the street cry as a creative device to create a hook and generate social discussion. We ensured to make it more engaging by creating behind-the-scenes footage, trendy Tiktok content, and Facebook stories. The street cry also became a social trend where users could experience different variations of the street cry, specially tailored for social platforms. We also created collections of food categories in the street cry style based on Vietnam's regions and social media trends, showcasing food variety in a thumb-stopping way and leveraging Thùy Tiên's image to the maximum.We went beyond digital and deployed the first-ever Tiếng Rao roadshow where people could scan QR codes for specific merchants they like. Our roadshow was a success because it created an opportunity for people to engage with the platform in real life, as well as an opportunity to acquire new users and caused orders to surge in real time.Moreover, we created a unique OOH series with never-before-seen billboards integrated with a voice system that spoke the tagline like a street cry to blend in with real life. They were strategically placed in high-traffic corners in key cities to ensure that we are capturing the attention of potential customers. With these efforts, we aimed to promote the use of Tiếng Rao and increase awareness of the platform among potential users.By utilizing various marketing channels and creative elements, we were able to generate significant social discussion and engagement, as well as increase the visibility of Tiếng Rao in the market. We are positive that these tactics will translate into increased adoption of the platform by more users.
