Conversational messages on Rakuten Viber are counted by Sessions. A Session is a 24-hour time window allowing brands and users to exchange multiple messages in a conversation—a brand can send up to 60 messages within this time frame. A Session starts after a user messages the brand, but the brand is only charged after replying to the user. Sessions allow brands and users to have real conversations—dialogues that help brands solve user issues in real time and build a relationship with the audience.Although primarily used for customer support, Conversational Business Messages can open a new avenue of communication between brands and customers. Conversations with live agents can cover many subjects like managing order and delivery details, helping choose a product, making a booking, or managing loyalty products. Companies can also drive purchases via interactive communication, improve customer retainment, support the post-purchase experience, and more.&nbsp;It’s been found by studies that 73% of consumers prefer to communicate with a brand they can message rather than call and 58% of them believe that messaging is also the fastest way to communicate with brands. What’s more, 74% of customers prefer messaging with businesses if a real person is responding.While communication between brands and consumers is constantly evolving, business messaging is growing too. Brands actively use rich services and capabilities Rakuten Viber provides them with, and the numbers show as much: in 2021, Rakuten Viber saw a 55% surge in the number of new <a href="https://www.forbusiness.viber.com/en/blog/post/how-to-open-a-viber-business-account/">Rakuten Viber business message accounts</a> opened to establish 1-to-1 connection with customers and a cumulative growth of 20% across all types of business messages delivered.
