this segment needs a different service as internet and other social media is a big part of this
segment.
Banglalink launched campaigns and positioned itself to be the company that caters to the young
people of the country with lowest possible rate. This perception of the being the lowest call rate
provider is the distinction that Banglalink achieved throughout the years.
In which extend Banglalink is able to build competitive edge in mobile telecom services ?
Answer:
In the telecom sector Banglalink holds second largest market share. Banglalink surely evaluated
the options in which it could build its competitive edge and choose the right path by positioning
itself as the brand that is associated with the theme change in life.
To understand the competitive edge that Banglalink strives to achieve, it is necessary to start
with its slogan Din bodol er chestay or Trying to make a difference. Then few days later the
slogan changed into Jekhane din bodol er chesta seikhane Banglalink or Where there is a
difference, Banglalink is there. The positioning the company went for is that it is there to help
the customers to bring positive change in their lives. The company wanted to provide value by
aligning itself with the customer in his need. The company kept its promise to help in making
difference by implementing the price war strategy in its re-launch as Banglalink. The price
cutting strategy is a big milestone in the telecom industry as it totally changed the market
equilibrium. This strategy alone made Banglalink look good on its promise to be a partner in
making difference with their customers.
Among the telecom consumers Banglalink has positioned itself as the brand that provides the
lowest rate in every service in the telecom industry. Its recent campaign Banglalink Dam or
Banglalink Price is actually the result of that perception rather than producing the perception
of being the lowest call rate provider. And that is the competitive edge that Bangalink has
achieved in its marketing efforts. It is that company that has the lowest rate in all the services it
provides.
The researches and studies in the related sector has indicated that with the maturation of
voice market the data market will hold a critical place in determining the overall market
share.. So what can be done is offering a very low price in data compared to the entire
market. Now this offer can be introduced by bundling other services so that low prices in
data can drive the sales of other products with higher margins. Moreover to induce
loyalty such bundles can also be offered with On Contact Smartphones like Verizons
or AT&T do in the united states
Telecom companies need to recognize that consumers are in control and are conducting
conversations in which they may not be included. As such, they must reinvent themselves
in a quest to adapt and remain relevant. Its about getting in tune with todays digital
consumers, becoming part of the digital dialogue to better understand their wants and
needs, then responding with compelling user experiences. In this regard a proactive
presence in the social media is quiet mandatory for any carrier to succeed.
Banglalink has always excelled in delivering the Brand Values. However in the changing
nature of consumers, point of sales and communication channels it must kept coherency
between all the channels. In this way the level of attention and occurrence of action
should increase. Moreover in the changing dynamics consumers regard their freedom and
interactions as the core criteria of choosing a brand. Therefore a virtual platform of
customer service can be created where all the service issues can be sorted out online and
the consumers are allowed to choose their own combination of components of a package
Too dependent on certain category makes the portfolio risky. For example Airtel is
slowly replacing the Banglalink as youths first choice
