Telco engagement for customers who can switch in an afternoon.

Prepaid churn, multi-SIM customers and a self-service app nobody opens. Mobile operators and ISPs across Africa use engagement, analytics and customer data to keep people and grow usage.

THE PROBLEM

What keeps telcos up at night

01

Prepaid churn

No contract means no warning. Customers drift to another network and you only notice when the recharges stop.

02

Multi-SIM customers

When a customer carries more than one SIM, you're competing for a share of their day, not their loyalty.

03

Bundles pushed to everyone

The same data bundle offer goes to the light user and the heavy user, and neither of them bites.

04

The app nobody opens

Self-service would take load off the call centre, if customers used it.

05

Data in a dozen systems

Billing, network, CRM and the app each know something different about the same customer.

WHERE WE HELP

Where we help

01

Early churn signals

Analytics that spots changes in usage early, and journeys that respond before the customer has gone.

02

The right offer for the right person

Segments built on real usage, with offers sent by SMS, push, WhatsApp or in-app, wherever each customer responds.

03

App adoption

Onboarding journeys that get customers into the app, and product analytics that shows what keeps them there.

04

One customer view

Data from billing, CRM and digital joined into one profile, with dashboards for leadership.

PLATFORMS WE'D CONSIDER

The platforms we'd look at first.

Partners we'd look at first for telcos. Most operators already have campaign tools, so we start with what you have.

WORTH KNOWING

Usage data is personal data

Usage, location and payment data are all personal information under data-protection laws such as South Africa's POPIA. They need a lawful reason to process, sensible retention and care when they leave the country. We build that into the setup instead of bolting it on later.

FAQS

The questions people ask us first.

Do we need to replace our existing campaign tools?

Often not. Engagement or analytics tools can sit alongside what you have. We'd look at your current setup before suggesting anything new.

Can you work with our billing and network data?

Yes, if it can be exported or streamed. Joining those systems into one customer view is usually the first real piece of work.

Where would our customer data be stored?

Many of these platforms host outside Africa, often in the EU or the US. Data-protection laws such as South Africa's POPIA allow that if it's handled properly, and it's one of the first things we check with you.

Where do we start?

Usually with one problem worth solving and the data you need to measure it. Platforms come after that, not before.
