Customer preferences: In recent years, there has been a shift in customer preferences towards more personalized and targeted advertising. Customers are increasingly seeking relevant and tailored messages that resonate with their interests and needs. Direct messaging advertising allows companies to reach customers directly and deliver personalized messages, making it an effective strategy to engage with the target audience.

Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the Direct Messaging Advertising market in Belgium is the increasing use of messaging apps. Messaging apps have gained popularity among consumers, with a large portion of the population using them on a daily basis. This presents a great opportunity for advertisers to reach a wide audience through these platforms. Companies are leveraging messaging apps to send promotional messages, offers, and updates directly to customers, enabling them to establish a direct and personalized connection with their target market. Another trend in the market is the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots in direct messaging advertising. AI-powered chatbots are being used to automate conversations with customers, providing instant responses and personalized recommendations. This not only enhances the customer experience but also allows companies to scale their direct messaging advertising efforts. AI algorithms can analyze customer data and behavior to deliver targeted messages, increasing the effectiveness of direct messaging campaigns.

As the economy grows, companies have more resources to invest in advertising and marketing strategies, including direct messaging advertising. Additionally, consumer spending patterns play a crucial role in shaping the advertising landscape.

In conclusion, the Direct Messaging Advertising market in Belgium is experiencing growth and development due to customer preferences for personalized advertising, the increasing use of messaging apps, the integration of AI and chatbots, local special circumstances such as high smartphone penetration and internet connectivity, and underlying macroeconomic factors such as economic growth and consumer spending.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2B enterprises. Figures are based on Direct Messaging Advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers advertising by businesses via e-mail, SMS, direct mail, messengers, web push, telemarketing, and instant messaging.

Modeling approach:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Consumer Insights Global survey), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, usage). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, number of smartphone users, internet coverage, and number of urban households. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function is well suited to forecast digital products due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption, whereas exponential trend smoothing (ETS) is more suited for projecting steady growth in traditional advertising markets. The main drivers are GDP per capita, consumer spending per capita, and 4G coverage.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice a year. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development). Data from the Statista Consumer Insights Global survey is reweighted for representativeness.
