Business Wire India

AxisDirect, the retail broking arm of leading BFSI player Axis Securities Limited, has won Gold at DMA Asia ECHO® 2016 for Real Time Email Marketing in "Insurance & Financial Products & Services" category. DMA ECHO® Awards is one of the most coveted prizes that celebrate strategy & creativity in the field of marketing. The awards honor the world's most innovative, creative and effective data-driven marketing campaigns. AxisDirect has also won the DMA International Gold in 2016, DMA India Gold in 2016 & DMA Asia Bronze in 2015 for first in the industry marketing innovation.
 
Real Time e-mailers by AxisDirect overcome the challenges faced in traditional email communication where data is static, by providing market information and news as it happens. Real-time personalization technology addresses the most critical factor of providing live information at the right time, creating a real value for customers. This innovation is most relevant to stock markets as news, indices and stock prices change every second and real-time data is critical to make investment decisions. The email displays live content e.g. live stock/index rates, live portfolio value, live portfolio actionable, current research picks, market open & close countdown whenever a customer opens the email. AxisDirect has seen significant increase of ~ 50% in the open rates and ~100% in click rates of the real time emails. AxisDirect's customer rating on these emails is 4+ out of 5 stars.
 
With nominations across 9 countries China, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand & Vietnam, DMA Asia ECHO® 2016 honored AxisDirect with the Gold award.
 
Commenting on winning the award, Mr. Arun Thukral, MD & CEO, Axis Securities said, "Email with its wide reach & cost effectiveness is an extremely significant medium to reach out to customers. Our aim was to empower users with real-time market data to enable them to make smart investing decision.
