In times of digital transformation, being an internet service provider (ISP) requires overcoming major challenges to stand out. Although connectivity is essential in people’s lives, the market is quite competitive. That’s why solutions for internet providers are so valuable!
They help deliver quality services and meet growing market demands. In this article, we will provide an overview of the market and its challenges, showing how Ascenty helps your business.
Let’s get started!
The Brazilian Internet Service Provider Market: Major Challenges And Opportunities
The internet market is dynamic and highly dependent on connectivity. Thus, companies in the sector need to operate with a focus on the customer and overcome major challenges to gain their trust and loyalty.
Ascenty is a strategic partner in these businesses and is well aware of the obstacles faced. Let’s look at a few below!
High competitiveness
The need for better operational performance creates a highly competitive scenario. In this context, internet providers must invest in innovation to set themselves apart from the rest, since quality of service alone is no longer sufficient.
In the quest for competitive prices, fierce competition impacts megabyte prices in an unsustainable manner. After all, offering below-average prices or expanding packages at the same price compromises operational viability.
Still, it is crucial to remain aware of market movements. Regularly adjusting prices and keeping them aligned with inflation is essential to avoid a mismatch between costs and services. In practice, the suggestion is to consider the possibility of working with gradual adjustments.
Churn, default, and loyalty
Churn and default are critical challenges: out of every 100 new customers, 90 tend to come from other providers. Naturally, there is no guarantee of loyalty, as these are consumers willing to switch again if not quickly won over.
Reducing churn involves offering additional services, such as streaming and Wi-Fi access, consolidating your company’s position as a source of essential services. In addition, the use of scoring services and adaptations based on payment compliance also stand out as good strategies to address these challenges.
It’s also worth staying open to the inclusion of Value-Added Services (VAS), such as streaming and access to digital content. However, remember to avoid offering platforms with little consumer interest and seek mutually beneficial partnerships that contribute to loyalty.
Constant review is crucial to ensure that VAS add value for both providers and customers.
Quality: the major differentiator of an ISP
Overcoming challenges is not something achieved solely through service quality – but this is undeniably the fundamental first step.
According to IBGE data, connectivity is a daily requirement for 87.2% of the Brazilian population over 10 years of age. Therefore, the quality of the service offered by internet providers plays a crucial role.
Contrary to the notion that price alone is decisive, 93.4% of this audience uses the internet daily. In other words, a stable and fast connection is essential.
With this in mind, quality service not only solves technical problems but also establishes a relationship of trust with customers. Offering a reliable connection, combined with effective support, positions the ISP as a solid choice amid fierce competition.
If there is one crucial lesson to be learned, it is this: service quality and excellent customer service are factors that outweigh mere price considerations.
