Offense as Defense: Growing
Cable Phone to Defend the Video Business
Room Ballroom B
Wednesday, 2:30 - 3:45
pm
Driving
phone penetration is the key to defending against video
competition from the phone companies. This is the takeaway from
a Citigroup report and the front-line experience of cable
companies
who are winning in competitive markets. As cable accelerates
phone subscriber growth, the telcos are losing ground that will
be exponentially more difficult to recapture in the future. With
the addition of wireless, cable will evolve to become the mobile
platform for delivering all the home-based products – video, HSD
and phone – and adding the best consumer value that truly
converged services have to offer. Learn about proven strategies
to grow cable’s business and win the hotly-contested battle for
the consumer.
