The home appliance maker’s problem
› India’s leading Home appliance maker – Dealers and
Distributers selling it throughout the country - No Touch
point with the end customers
› Knows macro patterns – Seasonal cycle, Geographic
demand etc but doesn’t know the end customer
› Cannot run direct marketing promotions or loyalty
campaigns, upsell to take value to customer or even conduct
customer research

The curious case of O2 in the UK
› O2 is a mobile and Wi-Fi broadband service provider. Wi-Fi
broadband plans can be purchased using a separate card
purchase without an associated mobile number.
› O2 realized that there were several customers who were
using both mobile and broadband, but with separate
accounts.
› O2 wanted to know who these customers were and wanted
a means where customers would self-identify themselves

#smwfuturesocial
What’s common between the two?
› First case - The lack of a customer touch point
› Second case - Multiple touch points with data collected
from them in silos and hence unusable together
› A customer is viewed via touch points he creates with your
brand. Customer touch-points are the corner-stone of any
CRM

The Shift to a Single Customer View
› Quality of data
In the multi-channel era it is a constant challenge for
brands to maintain and improve the quality of the
data they receive from multiple channels and feeds.
› Single Customer View
IMImobile offer a range of solutions that help
operators to pursue a customer centric strategy in
order to enhance customer experience, reduce
churn and stimulate usage.
› Experience
Having worked with leading operators such as O2,
Vodafone and Meteor, we have the solutions and
experience to maximise the value of customer data.

40% of businesses still have more than 80% of their customer data
stored in separate systems across their organisation.
