Desafios
Issue Identification: Due to Liberty's business model of offering prepaid telephone services with no contracts, no credit checks, and no activation fees, subscriber churn was inevitable. High subscriber churn resulted from a lack of insights into customer behaviors and cancellation patterns, compounded by the absence of predictive capabilities in identifying potential churn towards the end of the service period; Issue Impact: Ineffective churn mitigation strategies resulted in substantial revenue losses and low profitability for Liberty
Solução
NowVertical's Role: NowVertical analyzed historical transaction and usage data from both active and churned customers. A machine learning model identified distinct behavioral patterns among churned customers, which were then applied to current subscribers to predict their likelihood of canceling at the service period's end. This approach enabled early identification of at-risk customers, providing a window for targeted interventions to prevent cancellations.
