HOME/INDUSTRIES/TELCO MARKETING
INDUSTRY — TELECOMMUNICATIONS

Telco marketing for a product everyone owns and almost no one loves.

Tariffs are spreadsheets. Mobile networks are infrastructure. Marketing has to turn that into decisions a human can make in 90 seconds in-store or online.

Performance branding for tariff activation, churn reduction and network narrative.

OUR THESIS

Churn isn't a marketing problem. But marketing decides whether it gets too palpable to stay hidden.

Telcos lose customers in the 30 days after contract end, not in the ad break. We build campaigns that make tariff changes frictionless — and loyalty programmes that reward, not just retain.

INDUSTRY REALITIES
01

ARPU beats acquisition.

An existing customer upgrading data is more profitable than three new ones at promo prices. Marketing has to serve upsell journeys, not just acquisition.

02

Tariff complexity is the enemy.

Win the tariff matrix, lose the conversion. We translate complexity into decision logic — without giving away the margin.

03

Network narrative is the brand foundation.

5G, fibre, latency. If you don't tell the network promise yourself, you leave it to consumer tests and tech magazines.

04

Service is the second brand.

Hotline wait time is a brand metric. Communication has to reflect service reality, not inflate it.

KPIs WE STEER BY
Churn Rate
Quarterly and segmented by tariff. Marketing contribution in the final 60 days before contract end.
ARPU
Average revenue per user. We steer upsell campaigns by ARPU lift, not reach.
NPS / Service-Score
Early churn indicator. Communication has to cover service reality, not contradict it.
Cost-per-Acquisition (CPA)
Per tariff tier, not blanket. Promo CPAs can cannibalise profitable lanes.

QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED

We treat tariff architecture, contract logic and channel mix as marketing problems. Campaigns are steered by ARPU lift and churn reduction — not by promo CPA that cannibalises profitable existing-base lanes.

ARPU in the existing base and churn rate in the final 60 days before contract end. Acquisition CPA is diagnosis, not steering — otherwise you optimise yourself into promo losses.

Regulatory statements are aligned with legal before they get creative. We cleanly separate mandatory disclosures from brand claims — both must be defensible in isolation.

Yes. Enterprise tariffs, cloud bundles and SD-WAN offers need different vocabulary and buyer journey than consumer — we build both.

Your tariffs are complex. Your communication can't be.
