• This represents a significant opportunity for operators

• They have the customer relationships

• They have the opportunity to upsell new products and services (both their own and 3rd parties – e.g. content partners)

• They have the financial relationships with customers – billing, prepaid top ups, direct operator billing

• They have the business intelligence on customer behaviour

• They have the customer context – e.g. location, service being accessed (or tried), customer behaviour – in real-time

Generation Now Wants Stuff Now (aka Real-time)

• Traditionally offers are not real-time. They depend on either pre-planned/pre-configured schedules, or off-line processing based on historic activity.

• Real-time offer presentation after intelligent offer mapping, and presentation of contextually appropriate offers can increase data revenues

• Also need orchestrated offer provisioning to deliver offers in real-time

Real-time Data – Driving Real-time Offers

• Combine customer context and real-time data

The Context Meet Tim.

• Tim is a long time Facebook user, but has limited monthly data consumption. With the change in service, he is now using significantly more data through the Facebook app.

• Tim is a valued, but low ARPU customer. He has a small data balance between now and the end of the month, not enough to consume a lot of video.

• When Tim goes onto Facebook he is presented with an offer for one days unlimited access with HD video for $1.

• This is one of the new service offers.

• Tim accepts, and is instantly notified that he has been granted unlimited access to the service for that day.

5 Benefits for the Operator

So how was this done?

17 © Copyright 2014 Openet – Company Confidential For Use Under Non-Disclosure Only

• An offer is presented to the subscriber following a trigger event (1), either an inbound subscriber query, or a pre-defined network event (e.g. subscriber accesses Facebook)

• Real-time Offer Manager will decide which offers to present to the subscriber, by first verifying their context (2) across multiple control points.

• If the context is determined suitable (3), one or more offers will be presented to the subscriber (4) and provisioned on acceptance

• Offer analysis (5) can determine new offers, and advise where to refine the existing catalog

Closing the Offer Management Loop
