Business Wire
The Calix Success team has helped customers
realize an average 45 percent Net Promoter Score increase by
helping them evolve from a strategy focused more on experience than
speed
Today at Calix ConneXions, Calix, Inc. (NYSE: CALX) announced
advancements to its industry-leading customer success organization,
Calix Success (Success). Expanded guidance, support, education, and
network expertise now offered through Success will further
accelerate the transformation of broadband service providers (BSPs)
into experience-based providers as the industry continues to
undergo widespread disruption. The evolved Success organization can
support any BSP at any stage of their transformation journey while
leveraging any Calix product or solution—from launching new managed
services to scaling their broadband network.
Launched in 2018, Success helped support the Calix transition
from a hardware-focused business to a leader in cloud and software
platforms. Today, the Success team is the only one of its kind in
broadband, and BSPs leveraging Success over multiple engagements
see an average improvement of 45 percent in their Net Promoter
Score℠ (NPS®). Remaining dedicated to the betterment of its
customers, Calix has evolved Success into an expertise-driven
model, leveraging experts specializing in areas like pricing,
go-to-market strategy, and business analytics. Additionally,
Success provides continuous monitoring to ensure customers receive
constant value throughout their engagement.
Leveraging the Calix Platform and Calix SmartLife™ managed
services, Calix customers are delivering remarkable results, such
as:
- Tombigbee Fiber achieves a phenomenal 92 NPS rating.
Supported by the Calix Success team, Tombigbee Fiber has embraced
managed services from the start. They first added network-level
security, followed by social media monitoring with Bark. Then,
Tombigbee extended community-wide Wi-Fi across their northern
Mississippi communities with Calix SmartTown® and recently launched
Calix SmartBiz™. With Success Guidance, Tombigbee has continued to
deliver the managed services their subscribers need, so their
communities can thrive.
- The evolution of Pharr, Texas, in 18 months from
worst-connected city of its size to best. The City of Pharr,
Texas, transformed internet access for their residents by deploying
reliable municipal broadband and creating new economic
opportunities. To boost broadband adoption, the city partnered with
Calix Success to deliver clear, value-based marketing
communications. They have also added Bark and are preparing to
launch SmartTown. If a BSP requires assistance with network design
and optimization, Success Delivery can help.
- Jade Communications’ achievement of 27 percent
year-over-year growth and reduced churn. With Calix Success,
Jade Communications transformed their go-to-market strategy across
the organization. Success has helped Jade identify customized
goals, like turning on ProtectIQ® for every subscriber and
finding areas to become more operationally efficient. Additionally,
90 percent of their home security subscribers have upgraded to
premium packages, resulting in nearly 164,000 threats blocked
monthly. BSPs like Jade can turn to Success Guidance for tailored
expert advice and best practices.
- Community engagement and self-install strategies that
doubled subscribers for Consolidated Telephone Company.
Consolidated Telephone Company (CTC) adopted self-installation
strategies to enable faster access for subscribers and cut
operational costs. CTC has also focused on community engagement and
implemented Bark to help protect children on social media. Success
Support delivers resources for network and service availability
when customers like CTC need it most.
- 80 percent reduction in truck rolls as Mohawk Networks
boosted operational efficiencies. Enabled by the education
program at Calix, employees at Mohawk Networks, LLC gained skills
and knowledge to confidently manage their network, efficiently
deploy managed services, and enhance customer support. This allowed
Mohawk to deliver new broadband experiences to spark economic
growth. BSPs that need top-tier training and certification can rely
on Success Education while leveraging Calix University, Solutions
Academy, and Broadband Academy.
“At Jade, we have worked closely with Calix for over six years,”
said Jordan Wehe, marketing director at Jade Communications. “The
reason is simple. With their guidance, we have achieved 99 percent
adoption rates for premium Wi-Fi and boosted our return on
investment by three times, leveraging campaigns to promote new
subscriber experiences. Additionally, we recently launched
SmartTown, activating thousands of GigaSpires for our subscribers,
and soon, we will extend the service to first responders. Every
engagement with Success has been invaluable, helping transform our
go-to-market strategy and differentiate our brand with offers that
matter to our subscribers and keep their families safe.”
“Since its founding six years ago by the remarkable Martha
Galley, the Calix Success team has set the standard for creating
winning partnerships with our BSP customers,” said John Durocher,
chief customer officer at Calix. “Today, this award-winning team
evolves into our next phase—where every product and service Calix
offers is ‘powered by Success.’ Becoming an experience provider can
be a daunting mission. Yet, with a diverse team of experts, Success
enables any broadband provider at any stage in their evolutionary
journey to succeed. I am proud of this team for continuing to
support customers as they drive revolutionary results for and with
our customers.”
