EFFORTS

17. Vodafone’s ability to chart out an average life cycle allows it to market different
services. It prospects aggressively through advertizing.
2nd stage combines provisioning and verification. Vodafone activates a customers
account and makes a first rating of the customer based on the application.
Vodafone’s well planned welcome process includes a call informing clients of the
Vodafone help line & various value added services. At the end of this stage their first
bill is generated.
(v) CRM PROCESS
The first collection marks the start of up-selling and cross selling. Analytical module
steps in, CRM has to make every attempt count since clients can only be approached
only a fixed number of times.
This stage may see a client wishing to leave. To keep churn down , Vodafone uses
retention policies and loyalty processes to bring clients back to the fold. Many clients
are won back.
