Three UK increases revenue by 79% with real-time mobile messaging
In 2003, Three disrupted the UK telecom scene as the first 3G-only network, setting the stage to be the trailblazer in connectivity. Evolving into a connectivity giant with over 10 million customers, today Three connects people to people, people to things, and things to things.
Bringing real-time value and convenience to users across the UK, Three strives to make life as easy as possible for its customers. Whether it’s building the best network or improving access, they’re committed to delivering better, more valuable experiences at every touchpoint.
As the first telecom operator to offer mobile broadband anywhere in the world, Three has always worked to break barriers and offer real value and convenience to its customers. And with the goal of becoming the UK’s Best Loved Brand, Three knew it needed a way to better connect with customers on an individual level.
The challenge
Providing 1:1 value in real time at scale
Despite being a pioneer, Three faced the challenge of truly connecting with its diverse customer base and needed to break barriers to deepen individual connections.
The challenge? Delivering personalized value to each customer in real time and at scale.
Three UK wanted to inform and engage users about relevant products and offers. Rather than sending the same promotions and messaging to every customer, the team needed to create stronger relationships by delivering personalized offers to the right customer at the right time.
Through more targeted messaging and accurate audience segmentation, Three aimed to increase mobile app sessions, cross-sell revenue, and overall customer satisfaction.
The solution
Real-time relevance across channels
Three tackles this challenge head-on by using MessageGears to deliver targeted push and in-app notifications, seamlessly guiding users, offering relevant updates, and highlighting personalized promotions.
Real-time processing of customer actions and data points became the key to strengthening 1:1 connections and accelerating the path to purchase.
