Veerse (1999)? Whereas, it is true in some aspects, this definition is too narrow to include all features of mobile banking In this paper mobile banking definition is derived from the definition of the broader category of mobile commerce, which in turn is a subcategory of electronic commerce The definitions of electronic commerce, electronic business, and the related business models are constantly evolving Following both academic and industry based literature sources, Mitchell (2001) defines electronic commerce as “much more than buying and selling on the internet: electronic commerce is about doing business electronically, both within enterprises and externally, using computer networks and mobile communications” This definition is general enough to be used as a reference point Mobile commerce and mobile banking are discussed in the next two subsections - Mobile commerce The phrase mobile commerce was originally coined in 1997 by Kevin Duffey to mean “the delivery of electronic commerce capabilities directly into the consumer’s hand, anywhere, via wireless technology” Many choose to think of mobile commerce as meaning "a retail outlet in your customer’s pocket." Mobile Commerce bears the unique characteristics not found in any traditional forms of commerce as follows: Ubiquity: Ubiquity means that the user can avail services and carry out transactions largely independent of his current geographic location (“anywhere” feature) This feature can be useful in many situations, e.g to cross-check prices while standing in a supermarket or while one the move tế MOBILE BANKING ề Đ án Ki nh tế ố qu Immediacy: Closely related to the feature of ubiquity is the possibility of market information for a broker Additionally, the consumer can buy goods and services, as and when he feels the need The immediacy of transaction helps to capture consumers at the moment of intention so that sales are not lost in the discrepancy between the point of intention and that of the actual purchase Localization: Positioning technologies, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), allow companies to offer goods and services to the user specific to his current location Location based services can be, thus, offered to meet consumers’ needs and wishes for localized content and services Instant connectivity: Ever since the introduction of the General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) mobile devices are constantly “online”, i.e in touch with the network (“always-on” feature) This feature brings convenience to the user, as timeconsuming dial-up or boot processes are not necessary Pro-active functionality: M-Commerce opens, by the virtue of its ability to be immediate, local and personal, new avenues for push-marketing, such as contentand product offers Services like “Opt-in advertising" can be offered, so that a user may choose the products, services and companies, which he wants to be kept informed about The Short Message Service (SMS) can be used to send brief text messages to consumers informing them of relevant local offerings that best suit their needs This feature ensures that the “right” (relevant) information can be provided to the user at the “right” place, at the “right” time The user too does not have to fear missing some potentially crucial information or getting it too late Simple authentication procedure: Mobile telecommunication devices function with an electronic chip called Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) The SIM is registered with the network operator and the owner is thus unambiguously identifiable The clear identification of the user in combination with an individual tế attractive for services that are time-critical and demand a fast reaction, e.g stock c real-time availment of services (“anytime” feature) This feature is particularly ề Đ án Ki nh tế ố qu - Information provision: VCB ask all employees to provide full information consulting and during transactions - On sale: Let customers know the products, believe in the VCB and salesman then decide to use the products and services - The implementation of the services after the transaction: The most important thing is to make customer satisfied and trust in the VCB There is no customer complaining about the product or the attitude of the staff - Information collection: All employees in cross-selling forces must have monthly statistics information of existing customers, potential customers and markets, which will be sent to the head of transaction offices In addition, monthly statistics, which is on current products, new products and business practices of the rivals, especially the Joint Stock Commercial Banks, must submitted to the head of departments or branch directors - The contribution of strategies: Staffs must be enthusiastic at work, have a high sense of responsibility, contribute to the cross-selling strategy 3.2.2.2 Develop strategies for cross-selling force For the issue of resource allocation, VCB allocate staff in team or individual depending on each situation to have suitable approaching to customers - Sales Representative with a client: sales representatives discuss issues with a prospective client directly or indirectly - Sales Representative with customer groups: VCB assign one or a group of employees to meet, consult and transaction with a customer group wishing to use the financial services of bank - Sales conference: the sale conference is organized monthly by staffs in crossselling force - Sales workshop: the organization of workshops with clients quarterly about information of VCB, the existing products, new product and possible products in the near future 57 tế are facing and need to be settled No customer complains about the staff when c about cross-selling products correctly and to remove the problems that customers ề Đ án Ki nh tế ố qu 3.2.2.3 Develop cross-selling force structure: Employees in branches, transaction offices of VCB are divided according to their specialization, responsible for one products or a group of products - Cross selling staffs who are not VCB official staffs, are important in the success of cross – sale They are staffs at transaction points of bank’s partners They introduce, consult about VCB products to customers Process of cross-selling Figure 3.1: Sales Process Exploration and refinement Approach End of transaction Preliminary Approach Monitor and maintain Introduction and Demonstration Overcoming feedback (Source: Marketing Management - Philip Kotler) The first is the exploration and refinement This step is the detection of prospective customers and partners to participate in cross-selling activities The cross selling representative should build a target customers List of target customers can be built in the following ways: + Ask existing clients about the prospective customers + Take advantage of other reference sources, such as bank‘s partners, associations of industries, + Do research on the data sources (newspapers, directories) to find customers + Use communication tools such as phone call, email, invitation via the Internet + Direct contact with customers and target customer groups Cross selling staffs need skills in refining bad customer, basing on their financial 58 tế branches, transaction offices in economic zones that VCB chose through Vietnam c -People who work full time for VCB are official staffs All of them are allocated in ề Đ án Ki nh tế ố qu capability, demand, wishes,… customers (what they need, who will make the decision,…) Cross selling staffs need to clarify time, purposes to meet customers and meeting strategy with specific chosen customers The third step is the approach In the first meeting, sale staffs should build sympathy with customers This problem is related to the appearance, the opening words in meetings, how to communicate with gestures and words The forth is the introduction and demonstration step Cross selling staff needs to introduce about services, products, which can be cross sold according to AIDA model AIDA stands for attention, interest, desire, and action On meeting, cross selling staffs can use other supported tools such as: brochures, product catalogs, statistical tables,… The fifth step is overcoming customer feedback Typically, customers often compare banks with each other when using financial services Therefore, cross selling staffs need to be trained to have skills in making transaction and negotiation In the sixth step, transaction comes to the end In order to end up a transaction successfully, cross selling staffs have to know the signals of agreement of customers and partners Staffs need to know how to urge them smartly to decide Communication and listening skills are very important in this step VCB should train these skills carefully for staffs The seventh step is to continue monitoring and maintaining relationship with customers When customer have chosen service products, cross selling staffs must continue monitoring and give solutions and advises customers to use more services 3.2.2.4 Target customers of Telco Led model – Mobile BankPlus Mobile BankPlus service is the service cooperated between VCB and Viettel, hence, in order to develop services, it is necessary to take advantage of both VCB and telecommunication companies The thesis suggests several solutions to develop the target customers using 59 tế research on the target individual customers and corporations in VCB target c The second step is the preliminary approach Cross selling staffs have to ề Đ án Ki nh tế through VCB: + Mobile BankPlus services are considered suitable for mass customer segment, which is lower than the Mobile Banking services (Bank Led Model) Those are not familiar with high technology, customers, middle-aged people, workers in the industrial zone, the low-income workers, students, farmers, etc + Hence the first step in the work offering Mobile BankPlus widely is focusing on customer group who are paid through VCB It must be suitable way and fastest way to boost the number of customers using services at the lowest cost + Thanks to the strength of sales staff working directly to customers of Viettel, Viettel and Vietcombank branch will work together to coordinate to sell services, at which staffs of Viettel will approach customers on behalf of VCB - Focusing on student group of customers: + Since the foundation, Viettel had objective to become cheap mobile network, focusing on medium and low income customers (accounting for 90% of Vietnam population) About customer strategies, Viettel search for new market segments such as: customers who have high demand of answering calls (Tomato package), young customers who like the use of value-added services on mobile phone platform + VCB have been known as a whole saler, however, since 2010, VCB have had strategies to develop retail banking VCB considers retail banking development as one of main objectives for sustainable development Therefore, learning from the experience of Viettel in retail market is necessary for VCB In 2013, VCB have deployed “Pay tuition fee online” subjected to student customers However, the approaching schools and students by VCB faces many difficulties Therefore, in order to develop BankPlus as well as “Pay tuition fee online” services, VCB can cooperate with Viettel in approaching and developing by ways The first one is to develop end users as students, and the second one is to develop 60 tế Focusing on customer group, who are staffs of businesses paying wages c - ố qu Mobile BankPlus deriving from sale activities as follows: ề Đ án Ki nh tế ố qu account relationship and connect with university Viettel organize student day (music festival, services exhibition,…) with many incentives for students such as account opening, card opening, BankPlus registration, to attract students 3.2.2.5 The sales process and customer consulting: The current biggest obstacle of VCB - MobileB @ nking is that most customers not know how to use and download the application on mobile devices Therefore, the first task is to promote consulting and guidance for customers at the counter - Sale staffs need to be fully equipped with tools supporting sale activities Each officer who conducts the registration of electronic banking services for customer should be equipped with a mobile device (smart phone or tablet) to proactively display services and make guidance for customer - Sales process at bank counter: + Step 1: When customer come to banks to perform other transactions, bank staff actively introduce VCB – Mobile Banking services with may superior utilities for customers + Step 2: Customers agree to be introduced about VCB - MobileB @ nking + Step 3: Bank staffs introduce the features of services on mobile devices and guide customer how to use + Step 4: Customers fill in services application form + Step 5: Officers register services for customers in the system + Step 6: Officers help customers to download the application and activate right at the counter Internet sales process: Create a website, which is linked to VCB official website, used specifically for VCB -

e – commerce and information technology agency belonging to Ministry of Industrial and Trade (http://www.vecita.gov.vn/), the smart phone user‘s proportion out of total population is 20% Moreover, based on the survey of InMobile, 35% Vietnamese people agree that mobile devices is their favorite media channel and it has trend of strong development in near future The decline of traditional media channels such as newspapers, radio, laptop, TV also boosts the development of mobile devices 3.3.1.2 Target customers - The target customers are those often use Facebook, newspaper application to update news - Besides, customers are using mobile devices such as mobile phone or tablet, which use operation systems such as iOS and Android 3.3.2 Advertisement on Facebook Facebook is currently the most popular network in the world with 1.2 billion active users In Vietnam according to http://www.vecita.gov.vn/, 38% of population 62 tế present, promotion and advertisement of modern banking services and especially c With the fact that Vietnamese people still have habit of cash payment at the ề Đ án Ki nh tế ố qu are using social network Therefore, today bank cannot ignore the development and Ads allows you to filter the users by age, gender, geographic area, devices, operating system and each specific version When users access Facebook application on the mobile device, tablet using iOS or Android, they will see ads with the "Install" or "Install Now" Mobile Banking application and by clicking on the ads, customers will be led to the application page on the app Store or Google

and download them With these advertisements, the service will be introduced to customers proactively to help customer access and download the application to their devices 3.4 Develop the security and privacy technology Security issues in electronic payments have long been considered a vital issue to be taken into account when the bank develops a new type of service Mobile banking brings many benefits, convenience, especially in helping customers make payment through mobile transfers quickly Beside these benefit, the security issues should be prioritized for development Only when ensuring

not be limited to the high -income customers, but bank must aim to many different types of customers Especially potential customer groups such as groups of young people, low and middle income customers (the majority of the population) Next, banks are trying to find, develop new services, which brings many benefits to the customer In a competitive environment at the present, most banks are
