  10. So What Does That Mean to Me?

  11. Current Trends • Traditional Local Exchange Carriers face competition from all sides • Wireless carriers • Cable Operators • CLECS • New Technologies

  12. Current Trends • New generation of users are growing up wireless only • Wireless Only Households continues to grow • Smartphones now comprise 47% of total wireless connections • 3G/4G data use is growing at astronomical rates

  13. Wireless is the Opportunity • Wireless enables local operators to compete in today’s bundled service market • Wireless is part of everyday life

  14. Why Wireless? • Revenue Stream • New source of revenue from both residential and commercial customers • Bundling Strategies • Bundling existing services with wireless helps lead to lower churn • Your Current Customers • Are already paying someone for their cell phone service today! • Your Future Customers • Today’s teens and twenty year olds are mobile only

  15. Wireless Revenues

  16. Options… • Build your own network • Cost and time • Become an Agent of a existing Wireless Carrier and use their brand • Using someone else’s brand and comes with low residuals • Become a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) • A low cost solution for your brand and bundling strategy

  17. The Good, The Bad and the Ugly • Building your own network…. • Control • Spend millions of dollars to acquire spectrum, build out network • Spend millions to maintain network

  18. The Good, The Bad and the Ugly • Becoming an Agent…. • Easy • Advertise and promote “someone” else's brand • Subscriber is not yours, the monthly revenue stream is not yours, carriers change commission fee structure often

  19. The Good, The Bad and the Ugly • MVNO Opportunity…. • Presents easier access to market, lower risks and capital requirements, maintain ownership of subscriber • Using carriers network and working within carrier constraints • Negotiating a direct relationship is time consuming, requires development costs to build proper back office and support structure

  20. What’s an MVNE? • The MVNO option does provides a fast track to entering the wireless world with lower capital risk – but it does require wireless know how and back office support • Partnering with an Mobile Virtual Network Enabler (MVNE) is a viable alternative • Why MVNE?

  21. Why MVNE? • Established relationships with carriers • Has already built the back office to • fully integrate with the carrier, • established relationships with other ILEC billing vendors, and • be able to rate and bill wireless records • Expertise in device procurement and support

  22. Conclusions • Providing wireless services to your customers is • A new source of revenue • Allows bundled services to maintain stickiness • Defensive strategy to keep out the competition

  23. Work with Experienced MVNE • Established relationships with carriers • Have already built the back office to • fully integrate with the carrier, • established relationships with other ILEC billing vendors, and • be able to rate and bill wireless records • Expertise in device procurement and support

  24. Conclusion • Providing wireless services (voice, text, 3G/4G data) to your customers is • A new source of revenue • Allows bundled services to maintain stickiness • Defensive strategy to keep out the competition
