The 5A’s is a new customer path proposed in the “Marketing 4.0: Moving from Traditional to Digital” by Phillip Kotler. In March, 2019, transcosmos formed a business alliance with MarkPlus Inc., a marketing consulting and research firm founded by Hermawan Kartajaya, the co-author of “Marketing 4.0.” Since then, the company has been offering its proprietary loyalty marketing services “5A Loyalty suite” with the exclusive right to use the measurement based on the 5A’s in Japan.

The 5A Loyalty Diagnosis is CX diagnostic service that transcosmos has proprietary developed based on the 5A’s concept, that enables businesses to quantify and visualize the result of comparative diagnosis with their competitors at one-stop. Based on the result, transcosmos helps clients medium to long term by reviewing clients’ current market position, their marketing communication and customer touchpoints both before and after purchase, proposing initiatives for boosting sales and customer loyalty, and executing and operating the initiatives.

■ About 5A’s

Marketing 4.0 proposes that a customer path in this era of connectivity consists of 5A’s, namely Aware, Appeal, Ask, Act and Advocate. It describes a consumer decision-making process as a “group decision making” based on various opinions of all individuals and groups that take part in the decision making process; not a process based only on one individual’s opinion. Based on this idea, MarkPlus promotes two new attributes to measure brand strength: Purchase Action Ratio (PAR) and Brand Advocacy Ratio (BAR)—a set of metrics that evaluate how well brands converts awareness into purchase and advocacy. This concept ultimately repositions the meaning of loyalty from past definition of repeat buying to new definition of advocacy.
