Why Telcos Need Personalization to Survive
Telcos are at an inflection point. For years, they’ve faced mounting pressure from better-funded, more innovative tech competitors, and seen a return on investment, profits and market share slowly dwindle.
When the pandemic hit, that pressure increased again. Suddenly, telcos were at the center of our lives; for many, the only means to connect with the outside world. And while leading operators handled that admirably, the crisis threw the reality of changed customer expectations – and the need to accelerate digital transformation to address them – into stark relief.
In such a volatile economic environment, it’s time to think critically about how telcos re-engage customers and reclaim the market. McKinsey lists ‘approach to customer engagement’ and ‘ability to leverage data’ as 2 of its 5 focus areas for telcos. Building strong personalization strategies satisfies both.

Telco Customer Experience and Marketing teams are failing to make emotional connections with their customers. They are frustrated because they are unable to use all of their data to develop rich customer insights. To add to their frustration they see other companies using data in a more personalised and engaging way than they are – we call this the Great Competitive Paradox.
Missed our webinar in partnership with eMarketer or need a quick recap? Dive into how AI and data science are changing customer engagement through hyper-personalization. Led by eMarketer’s Jeremy Goldman, this session spotlighted Intent HQ’s Chief Revenue Officer, Jonathan Woolf. Jonathan shared actionable insights, innovative strategies, and emerging technologies that empower businesses to connect with customers on a deeper level, all using first-party data in a privacy-safe way.
Telco customers reward true personalization with high ROI. At the same time, they demand a brand experience that protects their privacy. A dataset that could solve both of those issues, when used correctly, is weblogs. An incredibly underutilized asset that all telcos possess. However, concerns about privacy, scalability challenges, and fears of potential misuse have created significant hesitation.
