How mobile and enterprise service providers can launch innovative travel SIM services
Increased travel options have made the world more accessible. Leisure and business travellers alike are going to more remote places and travelling more frequently than could have been imagined just a few years ago. People like to explore and, despite the growth of video conferencing and other collaboration tools, travel remains an essential part of business.
But people also need to stay in touch, which means they want to take their mobile with them and continue to be accessible on while being able to reach colleagues, contacts, friends and family. This can be an expensive business, due to the roaming charges that can be incurred. Despite moves to harmonise roaming costs in some regions, globally, roaming remains a big business.
In fact, there’s a thriving market in the provision of solutions, often based on innovative travel SIM propositions that reduce call and data charges for travellers, whatever their reason for departure. And, while classical providers often provide seemingly attractive offers, in practice these can be strictly limited to specific countries – which means they don’t provide the solutions that an increasingly adventurous business and leisure community really need. As a result, there’s an opportunity for nimble players to build compelling propositions that can meet individual needs.
Mobile and enterprise service providers can capitalise on this by building an understanding of the needs of specific groups of travellers and then developing a proposition to serve them. Of course, saving costs is fundamental, so the right partnerships needs to be created to take advantage of differences in wholesale prices. Of even more importance is the ability to enable the underlying service, ensuring consistent network and data access in the chosen markets.
That’s why the right solution partner is a prerequisite.
