Recommendation Manager
Deliver an exceptional customer experience
Winning the hearts of the digital-native consumer
Digital-native consumers of today expect nothing but outstanding experiences. Digital-native companies have set the bar for meeting that expectation, bringing a customer-centric, digital-first focus and creating new kinds of value with simple and transparent subscription business models.
The Challenge for CSPs
As Communication Service Providers (CSPs) fight to maintain market share, they must go beyond connectivity to become Digital Service Providers (DSP) and deliver new applications via new business models, putting the customer at the heart of everything they do.
A key question for CSPs today is how to compete and win the hearts of their customers and increase customer lifetime value during this evolutionary period as they transition to DSPs and deploy their 5G networks.
Key gaps that CSP marketing and particularly Customer Value Management (CVM) teams face today include:
Siloed customer engagement systems and channels (i.e. customer touchpoints such as mobile app, email, SMS) leading to inefficiency and increased TCO and untapped channels / touchpoints
Lack of access to real-time network data to make more real-time, contextual, personalized recommendations
Generic customer engagement systems and tools not designed for the telecom industry, requiring heavy coding and time investment leading to increased TTM
Critical success factors for successful CVM
There are four critical success factors for successful CVM:
1
Context
Knowing how to use data when it’s fresh and most valuable, acting in real time with awareness of customers’ digital behavior to provide personalized offers
2
Relevance
Understanding what matters to customers at a given point in time and creating segments and/or micro-segments — again, in real-time — to provide relevant content in right context
3
Digital Channels
Shifting from traditional customer care, point-of-sale, email and SMS channels to engage customers via social media and other digital channels such as mobile apps, mobile wallets, games, streaming platforms and more
4
Ecosystems
Knowing how to combine offerings flexibly with partner offerings and push on-the-spot, real-time promotions (e.g., a tailored roaming offer or airport shop voucher to a business traveler)
