Gartner BI Summit 2012 |
6th to 7th February 2012 |
|
 |
The value of BI lies ultimately in its ability to transform decision making. The best business outcomes arise from BI programs that deliver what users need to make fact–based, analytic, collaborative decisions (not just by giving them better access to data).
Analytic excellence requires initiatives that reduce the gap between BI producers, enablers and consumers. It also demands that BI teams embrace a portfolio of BI platform, performance management and discrete analytic technologies, in order to expand the use cases covered and their relevance to the decisions end users need to make. This approach means learning from what business teams are doing to meet their own requirements, figuring out what broader "information products" are most valuable and where BI solution architectures should integrate these deliverables.
Through analyst sessions, problem-solving workshops and peer interaction, you'll gain the insight necessary to:
- Gain insight into BI and PM market trends and dynamics
- Link theory and practice of BI and PM
- Prioritize business needs with BI and PM strategy
- Increase nimbleness, agility and speed through BI and PM
- Standardize BI and PM capabilities across the organization
- Define and create an enterprise metrics framework
- Understand how to assess BI platform ownership costs over time
- Apply the best of BI to business processes

Colloquy Loyalty Summit Mexico 2012 |
8th March 2012 |
|
 |
Customer wallets are bursting with loyalty cards, and some of those programs drive true customer retention while others do little to combat churn. The goal of getting loyalty program members to shop more and stay longer is no secret.
At this event, you can learn how to craft a balanced strategy of behavioural and emotional loyalty, following the "Four D's" of successful programs that deliver high returns on their loyalty program investment:
- Design - the design principles for measurable results
- Device - using high or low-tech devices to involve customers and capture data
- Data - creating a data asset that is renewable and extensible
- Delivery - maximizing the use of your vehicle and channels to build loyalty

Minimising Telecoms Churn & Building Customer Profitability 2012 |
6th to 7th June 2012 |
|
 |
The 12th annual Minimising Churn and Building Customer Profitability will focus on:
- Utilising churn management to increase customer loyalty and to leverage existing customer assets
- Optimising the Customer Experience Management
- Implementing a customer segmentation strategy
- Reducing churn via prediction models
- Innovating loyalty programs to enhance customer experience and increasing ARPU
- Enhancing loyalty within the employees of the organization
- Strengthening brand positioning and service offerings to improve customer retention
- Building customer-centric operator case studies
The 2012 conference will feature more case studies, interactive panels and roundtables to make it an enriching experience for our delegates.
The telecom industry will continue to face market saturation and increased competition. This pattern of the market presents both an opportunity and a threat. Operators need to recognise that the service aspects that attract new customers are subtly different from those that retain established subscribers. Price, and a sense of value for money, are a common priority across current and potential customers. Competing on price alone is not a strong long-term strategy, but can increase custom if used tactically. In order to maximise customer retention, service providers need to prioritise customer care. This is the experience factor that has the highest correlation to overall customer satisfaction levels, but improving it can be costly.
Telecoms will have to accept that disruptive technologies and business models – such as VoIP, mobile broadband and over-the-top TV – represent both a threat to and an opportunity for incumbent telecoms and media companies. To ensure their future success, stakeholders in the telecoms and media sector must understand user demand and the impact of new technology developments and business models. Only then can they tailor their products, services and infrastructure investments to meet user demand. Join the conference tailored to update and equip you on the latest trends and methods to maximise customer retention.
