Why is it important to build a service that customers love?
With direct-to-consumer (D2C) streaming services, broadcasters have to closely track and improve all stages of the user journey. One of the most under-appreciated yet most important links in this chain is customer care since as directly affects user satisfaction and retention with your service. Having to worry about the audience - or consumer-focus is something new for many media companies, but this is an urgent task if you want to succeed in the D2C world. After all, acquiring a new subscriber is 5 to 25 times more expensive than retaining an existing one (according to research by Fred Reichheld, the inventor of the Net Promoter Score).
It makes sense: you don’t have to spend time and resources going out and finding a new customer — you just have to keep the one you are happy with. Keeping subscribers happy and knowing how to keep them loyal is key to the long-term success of OTT initiatives. That's where Cleeng comes in with Hi5 - cloud-based, AI-enhanced customer care!
