In a market that’s shifted from a cable monopoly to consumer choice, cable providers must find ways to reconnect with consumers.
Cable companies are feeling the squeeze. With the rise of streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu Plus, the industry has transformed, giving more power to the consumer. The cable monopoly is quickly disappearing, and many are choosing to cut the cord altogether in favor of other options.
Netflix, in particular, has proven such a threat that many major TV networks have cut advertising volume in half in order to retain younger viewers. And while taking their share of the market, streaming services are also delivering on customer satisfaction—currently at an all-time low for cable companies.
The Solution
