In this next Geospatially Enabling Telecom blog we'll look at a few of the Esri solutions to help your organization grow revenue.  Communication Service Providers (CSPs) are always looking for ways to increase revenues. Revenue growth starts with understanding market demand and performing sales analytics. Next, it moves into ensuring a successful customer journey by accurately qualifying a prospect and service fulfillment. Finally, it goes into retaining and upselling the customer for continued revenue streams. Esri's solutions for revenue growth can help CSPs increase revenue by leveraging spatial analytics with existing market demand and sales analysis to locate high-growth areas and upsell opportunities, while enabling presales engineers and customer sales representatives (CSRs) to qualify customers in a quarter of the time. Esri also provides geospatial tools and maps to the organization for improving customer retention.  

Market Demand

Greenfield Opportunity Analysis

Understanding market demand allows for the right product or service to be offered to the right customer at the right time. With Esri's greenfield opportunity analysis solution you can easily locate market demand with geospatial analytics and Esri's demographic data.  With a GIS based service request app, you can start to capture the location of off-net service requests to be leveraged in network planning. And ArcGIS Business Analyst is a focused app to assist in greenfield opportunity analysis that brings together analytics and demographic data. The video below shows how you can leverage off-net service requests and ArcGIS Business Analyst.

Sales Analytics

Upsell Opportunity Analysis

Spatial analytics support sales analytics in many ways—from retail analysis to customer 360 analysis to service qualification analysis. ArcGIS offers hundreds of ready-to-use spatial analytics tools to geographically analyze customer data and qualify customers faster. Create smart maps using ArcGIS Business Analyst that allows you to set an ideal customer demographic criteria, and locate all geographic areas that meet your criteria. See how in the video below.

Customer Retention

Customer 360 Analysis

Reducing churn and upselling customers drive revenue growth. Boost customer engagement and improve the customer journey with ArcGIS. Geographically monitor NPS and customer sentiment and better understand the demographic characteristics of your customers.  With the customer 360 analysis tools in ArcGIS, you can analyze 100s of variables in your customer 360 database to better understand which variables impact churn.  Then use those analysis results as a model to run machine learning against your current customers to get alerts of when a customer is likely to churn.
