Australia’s Largest Telecommunications Company
Telstra is Australia’s market leader in mobile, with 17.4 million customers and a market share of 40%. It is a full service provider offering fixed voice, internet access, pay television and other entertainment services in addition to mobile.
Telstra’s Group Managing Director of Networks explains why MATRIXX plays a crucial role in its digital transformation.
Telstra’s Digital First Transformation
Telstra’s digital first initiative was launched to move transactions to digital channels for the purpose of:
- Improving the customer experience
- Facilitating a step change improvement in customer advocacy, as internal research identified a strong link between data usage, spend and net promoter score (NPS)
- Reducing operational costs as the high expenses of call-center operations presented clear and obvious cost-saving opportunities that only digital first could deliver
The foundational transformation has been dramatic, with Telstra nearly doubling its number of digital customer transactions in just three years.
These Are the Benefits of Digital First
