Digital channel leverage, for both services and support, is a critical pillar of a telco digitalisation strategy. Telcos have long relied on their online web-shops to help drive digital channel sales, and their e-care app to improve digital self-support volumes, as these tools are instrumental at driving down customer acquisition and support costs. Most telcos have already enhanced their e-care apps with chat-bots, AI voice command, e-SIM support and other digital value-add, to improve the experience of digital self-service, and some have launched ‘online only' secondary brands, to gain a better understanding of the all-digital sales model, with no retail support and limited human hotline support. More recently, a number of telcos have gone further, creating a distinct, greenfield mobile app brand that is capable of managing the entire customer journey digitally, from a single app interface for both new and existing customers. Some are now being marketed as 'green' brands, whilst others are trying the same model for VAS, and even fixed-mobile bundles.

Telco Digital Brand Leverage as Part of a Transformation Journey', a Global Outlook Report by the publisher, provides an executive-level overview of the telco digital transformation journey and the emergence of the digital telco brand. It delivers qualitative insights on the digital brand, analysing key trends and strategies adopted by telecom service providers around the world.

Its structure is:
  • Section 1: Telcos' digital transformation journey: this section analyses the main strategies adopted by telecom operators as part of their digital customer transformation evolution, with a special focus on the emergence of digital telco brands.
  • Section 2: Case studies: the report provides six digital brand case studies

  • Some telcos have launched app-first secondary brands, to gain a better understanding of the all-digital sales model, with no retail support and limited human hotline support. These so-called Digital Brands are exploiting an entirely new, and unfamiliar, service provisioning model.
