Lazada Group’s e-Commerce Market Success in the Southeast Asian Mainland’s Country of Vietnam Despite the Coronavirus Pandemic

Despite the debilitating effects of the coronavirus pandemic on global eCommerce markets and e-Commerce consumers, Lazada Group’s Lazada eCommerce platform has been showing some steady growth within the country of Vietnam: Lazada’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Li Chun, recently spoke on e-Commerce’s development across Southeast Asia whereby he mentioned that eCommerce within the region has seen tremendous growth due to an accelerated adoption of Lazada’s e-Commerce platforms from consumers and sellers alike throughout all of Southeast Asia despite the pandemic. In accordance with Lazada’s growth, Lazada’s website had registered within Vietnam and between Q1 2018 and Q3 2019 an approximate leading total of 24.36 million Vietnamese site visitors throughout the quarterly period – with its website currently bringing in approximately 18 million monthly online visitors and counting this year (2021); as that last piece of data refers to website visitors on a monthly basis, the statistic is important to understanding the success of Lazada Vietnam because the amount of monthly visitors accounts for approximately 18.5% of the Vietnamese population and growing that visits Lazada on a monthly basis.

Lazada Vietnam: Important Factors to Ensure the Provision of Exceptional Customer Service that Leads to Sales Success  

With Lazada’s steady growth becoming a key factor in its eCommerce sales success, global eCommerce businesses and corporations that are either looking to expand their brand reach to the Vietnamese market or have already found integration into the booming market have an unprecedented opportunity to take advantage of the market’s booming eCommerce growth and stability to increase their e-Commerce brand loyalty and customer retention rates, securing an even greater e-Commerce market advantage against global competitors. To successfully take advantage of this strong opportunity, it is important for cross-border eSellers to understand some of the important factors that influence the provision of exemplary customer service through the Lazada platform in order to build trust with Vietnamese consumers and likewise influence their loyalty to each e-Commerce brand.

Lazada Group’s Lazada platform has been considered as one of the leading eCommerce platforms throughout Southeast Asia due to its ease of use and also the fact that it allows e-Commerce sellers to easily setup Lazada shops for each site – including the streamlined customization of products, product descriptions, shipping times, and prices for each country’s market – including Vietnam; once the Lazada shop has been set up, Lazada’s international fulfillment center in China’s Hong Kong region is able to handle all of the logistics – leaving your eSeller to only deal with the customer service side of things. In addition to the above, Lazada’s seller fees are also at a low rate – there are no setup fees, no monthly charges, and the sales commission is at a low 2% – as well as the cross-border order value commission, which is between 1%-4%.

As eCommerce sellers in Vietnam aren’t and wouldn’t be selling products through traditional brick-and-mortar retail shops, customer service actually needs to include a unique strategy that makes interactions with Southeast Asian customers – especially within Vietnam – more valuable and efficient. One of the most important metrics that global e-Commerce sellers must consider is the chat same-day response rate – which Lazada professionally monitors automatically; the chat response rate is calculated based on the eSeller’s responses throughout a 7-day period (which includes weekends – but excludes public holidays and notices), and the overall percentage should be equal to or above 85% in order to maintain a good seller rating since the eligibility for Seller Picks – a feature that boosts sellers’ best potential best-selling products on search pages to improve visibility sales up to 60% – could otherwise be diminished, decreasing visibility and traffic. Equally important – and also a metric that affects the eligibility for Seller Picks – is chat response time; if the chat response time is 30 minutes or greater, a breach of the quality standard of the Lazada marketplace occurs, also diminishing eligibility and further increasing the risk that customers – especially Vietnamese customers – forgo on purchases since they genuinely care for rapid customer service which builds seller trust and brand loyalty. In addition to these metrics, it is extremely important for cross-border e-Commerce sellers selling through Lazada to utilize omnichannel communication and telecom platforms (such as phone calls, SMS messaging, email, live chat with conversational AI integration, social media) for their brand marketing because the Vietnamese population shares a median age of 30.8 years; in reference to this, most online shoppers utilize social media platforms such as Facebook for their shopping needs – so, putting up a Facebook page or group that allows eSellers to connect and interact with existing and prospective Vietnamese customers can go a long way in bringing direct traffic to Lazada shops – especially if global eCommerce sellers use it as an opportunity to provide updates regarding sales or promotions (something that Vietnamese online shoppers like).
