THE SCIENCE BEHIND VOCO

WHAT IS GAMIFCATION?

Gamification is the integration of game thinking and game mechanics into non-game experiences to motivate increased levels of engagement.

Gamification is being applied to many different processes and tasks to enhance the enjoyment of the people involved in doing them. Enjoyment is created by making tasks more engaging, fun and interesting to complete, which in turn increases people’s motivation to complete them.

At 3radical we mix the best of gamification with the tried and trusted techniques powering loyalty schemes to create interactive experiences that both intrinsically and extrinsically motivate audiences to act.

Unlike traditional loyalty schemes, we look to reward more than just purchase. Instead, we see every interaction between your brand and audience as a chance to initiate a value exchange for both parties.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

With Voco you can present audiences with a simple three-step engagement cycle proven to boost response rates:

1. Challenge – invite your audience to take up a challenge that is tailored to their interests and that encourages their participation
2. Achieve – provide fast and frequent feedback on their progress and confirm completion of each challenge
3. Reward – reward audiences with intrinsic and extrinsic rewards to recognise their accomplishment and encourage sharing with peers

This cycle delivers a value exchange between you and your audience that can be used to incentivise the completion of multiple activities – each interaction delivering a positive outcome for both parties.
