Challenges and solutions for attracting new customers

In order to stand a chance against other telecom operators, marketers must present the right ad, to the right person, at the right time. Indeed, with market saturation for hand-held devices at an all-time high – it is becoming harder and harder for marketing teams to attract new audiences.

Key to overcoming this is producing an effective top of funnel display ad campaign. For with creative, engaging, and data-driven designs your ads are far more likely to stand out from the crowd and convert.

In our telecom marketer’s guide, we breakdown our top 4 solutions for effective display advertising. With real-life examples and how-to guides, it’s a go-to for better brand awareness campaigns.

Your competitors are working continuously to reach your customers with even better devices and better offers. And with so many providers out there, retaining customer loyalty can be a challenge.

Practical solutions for boosting customer loyalty

The right strategies alongside the right supporting technology can help you enhance your display advertising. Indeed, your display ads can act as a driver of both brand awareness and customer loyalty.

The fact is, display advertising has developed considerably since the first ad in 1994. Now, data management platforms (DMPs) and dynamic creative optimisation (DCO) exist to make the sync between data and creative as seamless as possible.

Dynamic content is an effective way of personalising your advertising, at scale. Currently, iGaming (28%) and Retail (16%) marketers lead the way for using dynamic content yet telecom still lags far behind.
