The nativeMsg Background Story

Accomplished entrepreneurs, Michael Lamb and Brian Stafford, have made a career out of utilizing messaging to generate millions of dollars in revenue for many of the world's largest brands.
In 2017, nativeMsg was founded to address opportunities in the growing area of conversational commerce and the rapidly changing messaging space. As with most new ventures, clients exposed us to new ways of leveraging our platform, which is how Conversational Ads were born.
A client specifically asked “Can you embed this Conversational Media into a digital display ad and could it be delivered programmatically? I bet the conversion would be much better than the results I am seeing now”. We always enjoy a good challenge and we set out to see what could be done.
We decided to build a prototype and run a series of experiments to engage customers in advertisements to see if higher conversion rates were a real possibility. These Conversational Ads blew away our initial expectations with some clients seeing average conversion rates of 18% inside existing programmatic ad delivery platforms. No new vendors or technology was needed.
We stumbled upon a secret to increasing conversion rates and now we are dedicated to getting this solution in the hands of B2C e-commerce marketers everywhere.

Step 2: Consolidate your Purchase Funnel by Integrating Traditional Landing Page Elements into a Conversational Ad.
Old Way
Before, you would have to work with multiple vendors to set up your purchase funnel creating a complex and costly Frankenstein stack of solutions.
New Way
But now, you can consolidate the purchase funnel in a Conversational Ad with the ability to locate & discover new products, provide product specific rich media and the ability for the user to add an item to their shopping cart directly in the ad.
Old Result
Having too many steps in your purchase funnel - from ad to shopping cart - greatly reduces conversions.
New Result
Consumers gravitate towards easy & intuitive purchasing experiences to save themselves time along with avoiding the headache of having to wait to get from A to B. With attention spans decreasing, the ability to deliver a unique engaging, interactive experience that drives results in real time is a game changer.

Step 3: Deploy Conversational Ads across Multiple Channels
Old Way
Before, when you wanted to deploy ads in multiple channels, you would have to use multiple platforms to create customer experiences in different channels (Messenger, Twitter, SMS/MMS/RCS, Ads, etc.).
New Way
But now, you can use nativeMsg to create interactive branded ads that work across many messaging, social, ad channels and landing pages without all the time and cost associated with current solutions.
Old Result
It is time consuming to manage multiple platforms, credentials and an agency or in-house designer to create channel specific ads. This process is slow and requires multiple individuals to manage the ad creation and deployment process.
New Result
Conversational Ads for multiple channels, managed on one platform, lead to much less effort, cost and headache than existing fragmented channel solutions.
Using a Platform to Deploy Conversational Ads Across Multiple Channels Saves Time and $$$.
By creating one Conversational Ad that can be used in multiple channels you have the ability to take the same experience used in a successful Conversational Ad display campaign and with a few clicks have that campaign running across multiple messaging and social channels.
5X Faster and Cheaper to Deploy Conversational Ads in
One Platform vs Many Platforms
Step 4: Use 1st party Data Captured in Conversational Ad Campaigns to Refine the Customer Journey & Conversational Ad Experience.
Old Way
Before, when you wanted data about your audiences buying habits, you had to purchase 2nd and/or 3rd party data to better understand your audience or send out digital surveys asking customers what they think about your products and company.
New Way
But now, you can use the nativeMsg platform to capture real-time data and insights along with opinions and desires of your audience while they are engaging with your Conversational Ads.
Old Result
Poor user experience based upon stereotypes of your customers. Consumers are looking for personalized experiences not generalized or stereotypical experiences.
New Result

See the questions they are asking, the paths they are taking and the types of products they are searching for.
Better Data Leads to More Personalized Audience Experiences

Your data is not aggregated making effective customer insights nearly impossible to discover.
Your audience is forced to go through purchase funnels based on outdated ad and landing page restrictions.
Option 2:

Who is this $1B retailer you keep referencing?
We are under a strict legal agreement and cannot reveal the brand. We can say that they are a very well known consumer brand and are 1 of 2 market leaders in a major retail segment.
Can you really achieve 18% conversion rates?
We have achieved this for our customers. In the end, it really depends on what moves the needle for your business. Maybe a 6% conversion rate is a big win or maybe it is 34%. You can use our Conversion Calculator to estimate your ROAS using Conversational Ads.
Does this require me to add anything to my marketing stack?
No, we are a dynamic creative that gets inserted into your current marketing processes. We can integrate into your other tools in your stack to allow for greater personalization, data warehousing and targeting.
I only advertise on social media, will this work for me?
Yes, our conversational ads are assigned a unique URL and can be displayed in the in-app browser on all social media platforms. This means you can take your existing static ad and have it open up a full dynamic conversational experience without leaving the Social Media platform. This increases engagement inside your social media advertisements and allows you to control the experience and capture valuable insights on your audience.
Can our ads be distributed through my DSP(Demand-side platform)?
Yes, many of our current clients are integrating Conversational Ads into their current media buys. The tag is created when the Conversational Ad has been set up making it very simple to cut and paste right from your account. Any existing tracking tags can then be included with your Conversational Ad tag. We then host and deliver your Conversational Ad. We have tested our ads with many of the largest DSPs. If you have a question about a particular DSP you can email us at support@nativemsg.com.
I have a large text messaging list, can I use it there?
Yes, you can include a link to the Conversational Ad experience using your current text messaging vendor (our platform supports SMS/MMS and RCS). This is a great way to include a dynamic experience in a channel made up of mostly text and emojis. This is similar to the next generation of the SMS called RCS (Rich Communication Services).
I have tried everything under the sun and cannot increase my conversion more than 1%, is this really going to work for me?
Our results are showing consumers like to engage with a brand to learn, discover and emotionally invest in that brand before purchase. Conversational Ads allow you to put your best foot forward and have an automated conversation with your audience during their initial experience with your brand. The canvas is empty and you can create a branded, personalized experience that will drive higher conversions unlike your other mechanisms. You will see higher results just based on the simple fact that Conversational Ads increase ad engagement.

We are sure you have spent a great deal of time perfecting your ads and seeing good results. But, with the advancements in technology and the ad ecosystem, you can be achieving greater results. You need to justify the ROI in your own head, but our bet is the ROI of Conversational Ads will be worth the effort.

What are the exact terms of the guarantee?
We want to make this simple for you. If within 60 days of signing up, you ask to cancel your service we will refund 100% of your money. This will not include any extra services like custom development or short code messaging, but we will make this crystal clear. We believe in our technology and if it is not showing a positive ROI for your business, you can have your money back. No strings attached.
What is the difference between Zero and First Data?
The difference is where the data is coming from and how it is used. Zero party data is data that consumers share with you and is typically used to enhance ad campaigns, improve personalization and build stronger relationships & loyalty. 1st party data is data that is collected by using a tracking pixel and is typically used for remarketing, forecasting trends and creating highly personalized customer experiences.
