Fiber optics
Telecommunications industry in transition - Fiber optics is seen as a key growth driver in the telecommunications business of the future.
Challenge of the industry
Fiber-optic companies find themselves in a highly competitive market environment. The DSL market is fiercely competitive. The competitive advantages of fiber as a technology over DSL require the use of intelligent product and promo mechanisms in addition to bandwidth. In addition, fiber companies are in some cases overbuilding an existing fiber footprint. Competition therefore takes place between fiber networks and not on fiber networks. However, those who succeed in wooing potential customers against the competition still have to overcome a number of hurdles before the connection is actually activated. Numerous process challenges and the inadequate use & processing of roll-out data as well as the duration of connection activation stimulate cancellation rates. In addition to the processes of data utilization and processing, established telecommunications companies and newly established fiber-optic companies lack suitable structures and efficient sales processes for successful fiber-optic business.
Another challenge in the fiber optic business is the complex technical characteristics and advantages of the fiber optic product that need to be explained and which require a special marketing approach. Resources with concrete FTTH know-how on such an FTTH-specific marketing approach as well as network expansion and operation are also very rare on the market.
In the long term, investments made in fiber optics must be safeguarded by efficient marketing and early retention and prevention of existing customers.
