Revenue Management

How to Monetize Current and Future Services

November 23, 2017 at 9:00am London|11:00am Cape Town|5:00pm Singapore

Communications service providers (CSPs) have spent billions upgrading their access and core networks to deliver the services and speeds that consumers and enterprises want – except for one key component. Most still have a legacy BSS. This means no modern revenue management and without it, CSPs cannot properly monetize their unique capabilities. This applies to their established communications services, as well as emerging digital ones such as telehealth, streaming movies, music downloads, financial services and more.

Those limitations also make them unattractive to potential partners such as content providers. They are seeking CSPs that can provide a commerce platform from which to offer all kinds of services and accurately collect revenue on their partners’ behalf. This webinar and its accompanying white paper explore why and how a modern revenue management enables CSPs and their business partners to pursue new revenue opportunities and differentiate themselves in the market, starting today with communications services and extending tomorrow with digital services.
