Background of the Study
In the competitive telecommunications industry, customer retention is a crucial factor for long-term profitability and growth. With the rapidly changing landscape of mobile communication services in Nigeria, telecommunications companies like MTN Nigeria must continually enhance their customer retention strategies to maintain and grow their subscriber base. Customer retention refers to the practices and strategies employed by companies to keep their existing customers satisfied and loyal, reducing churn rates and increasing lifetime value. MTN Nigeria has implemented several retention strategies, including loyalty programs, targeted marketing campaigns, excellent customer service, and innovative products, aiming to distinguish itself from its competitors.
MTN Nigeria is one of the largest telecommunications providers in Nigeria, and Taraba State, with its diverse demographics and growing mobile phone usage, is an important market for the company. However, despite MTN’s efforts, it is important to understand how its customer retention strategies directly impact its competitive advantage in the region. This study seeks to assess the effectiveness of MTN’s customer retention strategies and how they contribute to its competitive edge in Taraba State, particularly amidst competition from other telecommunications providers.
Statement of the Problem
Despite MTN Nigeria’s significant market share, the issue of customer retention remains a critical challenge, especially in Taraba State, where other telecom companies are intensifying their efforts to attract customers. While MTN has introduced various customer retention strategies, there is limited research on how these strategies specifically influence customer loyalty and the company’s competitive advantage in this region. This study seeks to evaluate the customer retention strategies of MTN Nigeria in Taraba State, with a particular focus on how these strategies contribute to the company’s competitive advantage.
