One area that I think smaller/community broadband providers could get a lot of bang for their buck (both time and $$$) is… Sharpening their sales skills as it relates to business customers. The business sale is different than residential. There is more competition. They value different things. But it also has more upside. It’s not as simple as, “Hey we have fiber, buy my service.” You’ve got to provide and show value outside of just fast internet, as they have needs around network and managed services. AND many large carriers will compete for those business $$$ while ignoring the residential area. Learn a basic sales process and how to ask good questions and you’ll be surprised the results it can drive. #broadband #smallbusiness #sethtalks

What do all broadband providers that are hitting their aggressive growth targets have in common? A great marketing leader. One that understands their customers, can speak their language, and helps set the culture internally to align with the CUSTOMER’S desired experience. Lots of BSPs can build a solid network. Not nearly as many can market it well. #broadband #ruralbroadband #sethtalks

This public admission illustrates the managerial challenges facing the wholesale telecommunications industry. Lumen has five separate networks as result of the acquisition of Qwest (2010), Time Warner Networks (2014), Lumen itself, Centurylink (2017), and Global Crossing (2011). Many of these acquisitions included a lot of debt and because the networks were not integrated, network costs have remained much higher than necessary. Lumen management just recently announced they plan to assimilate all these separate assets into one, unified network. Note that all these acquisitions should have been integrated immediately, not 14 to 7 years after the fact. We are looking at probably a cumulative loss of $10 billion on the bottom line due to the integration delays. Done promptly, integration would have kept Lumen a global player with South American and European assets all of which have been sold. On the bright side, if network savings are a billion dollars a year, this would help reinvigorate Lumen and give it a brighter future. #lumen #networks #integration #opex #savings #synergies

Big news! T-Mobile will enter into a long-term MLA on at least 2,015 towers and extend lease term on 600 towers in which T-MO is already a tenant. That still leaves ~1,800 towers that could eventually become cold steel unless there's another tenant on those towers. While I do think this will present another tower sale in the future, they'll be a lot of work on US Cellular to collocate tenants on those towers to ensure there aren't too many that are cold steel. That will help US Cellular maximize their tower sale. Geographically, I wonder where these towers that are not getting extended are located? The tower companies will start to see some US Cellular terminations. #TMobile #telecominsights #celltowerbusiness

The use of data is critical in the broadband industry to ensure long-term success and subscriber growth. We teamed up with Heavy Reading in 4Q23 to conduct a targeted survey to learn how BSPs serving 250,000 or fewer subscribers are collecting and using data to keep up with the continually evolving broadband landscape. Check out our two key research findings within! 🔗https://ow.ly/JzTN30sGQcI
