The Role of Contact Management in Retention & ARPU Stimulation

November 2005 (38 pages)
European mobile markets are reaching penetration levels where retaining existing customers and increasing their level of usage is much more important for future profitability. Levels of both ARPU and churn can be considerably influenced by the effectiveness of contact management between the MNO and its customers, and between those customers.

In this report we confront two major questions: how effectively have the MNOs been in exploiting these "touches", and what can they do to improve the effectiveness of their marketing through contacts in all channels. Contact management is examined from both the perspective of MNO to customer and within customer relationship groups. It asks whether MNOs are exploiting all the opportunities to foster loyalty and increased levels of communication and suggests how MNOs can optimise their performance in these areas.
