Customer preferences in Russia have shifted towards more personalized and targeted advertising. Consumers are increasingly seeking products and services that cater to their specific needs and interests. Direct messaging advertising allows companies to reach their target audience directly, delivering tailored messages and offers. This level of personalization resonates with Russian consumers, leading to higher engagement and conversion rates. Another factor driving the growth of the Direct Messaging Advertising market in Russia is the increasing popularity of social media platforms. Platforms such as VKontakte and Odnoklassniki have millions of active users in Russia, providing a vast audience for advertisers. These platforms offer direct messaging features that allow companies to communicate with their customers in a more personal and interactive way. As social media usage continues to rise in Russia, so does the potential for direct messaging advertising. In addition to customer preferences and the rise of social media, there are several local special circumstances that contribute to the growth of the Direct Messaging Advertising market in Russia. One such circumstance is the high mobile penetration rate in the country. Russians are highly dependent on their mobile devices, with a large percentage of the population using smartphones. This presents a unique opportunity for advertisers to reach consumers through direct messaging on mobile platforms.

Direct messaging advertising allows these retailers to promote their products and services directly to potential customers, driving sales and increasing brand awareness. The convenience and ease of online shopping, combined with targeted advertising, have made direct messaging an effective marketing strategy for e-commerce businesses in Russia. Underlying macroeconomic factors also contribute to the growth of the Direct Messaging Advertising market in Russia. The country has a stable economy with a growing middle class, which has led to increased consumer spending. As disposable incomes rise, consumers are more willing to engage with advertising and make purchases. This creates a favorable environment for direct messaging advertising, as companies can effectively target and engage with potential customers. In conclusion, the Direct Messaging Advertising market in Russia is experiencing growth due to customer preferences for personalized advertising, the popularity of social media platforms, local special circumstances such as high mobile penetration and a strong e-commerce sector, and underlying macroeconomic factors such as a stable economy and increasing consumer spending.

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.

All advertising markets across the globe win, yet some win more than others. Ad spending worldwide reached almost 733 billion U.S. dollars in 2023, up less than three percent from the previous year. For comparison, in 2022, Switzerland ranked 20th among the leading economies by gross domestic product (GDP) with a result exceeding 800 billion dollars. Whereas global ad revenues concentrate in areas with either large populations or high purchase power – preferably both – their evolution depends on a larger set of indicators. It was forecast that, in 2024, South Asia will be the world's fastest-growing ad market, and the only out of nine with a double-digit increase rate: 12.1 percent. The second-placed region, comprising the United States and Canada, was projected to see its ad expenditure rise 7.6 percent.
