Marketing Analytics Case Studies


Cable
Stemming Customer Attrition in the Cable Industry
Over the past several years, traditional cable/internet providers, known as multiple system operators or MSOs, have faced a stiff increase in competition from an array of new and alternative service providers. Telecom companies, as well as non-traditional suppliers with mobile and internet based subscription services, have flooded the marketplace, changing the industry landscape. What was once a territory-based, noncompetitive industry is now a hyper-competitive, technology-driven battlefield. As a result, MSOs are not only vying for new subscribers, but fighting vigorously to build loyalty and preserve their customer base.
