1. The Impact of Mobile User Experience on Network Operator Customer Loyalty Summer 2010 A global study in 111 countries by Mob4Hire and Business Over Broadway reports on the mobile user experience (mobile handsets, mobile apps, app stores and network operators) and how network operators can use this information to accelerate growth.

2. 2 | P a g e Copyright 2010 Mob4Hire and Business Over BroadwayMethodology Business Over Broadway (BOB.; www.businessoverbroadway.com), customer satisfaction and loyalty experts, helped design the survey instrument and research design. This particular study on network operators, which included both loyalty- and quality-related questions, was powered by Mob4Hire (www.mob4hire.com) who provided the online data collection and consumer panels. Panel Description Mob4Hire has a proprietary, worldwide sample of over 45,000 panelists (or Mobsters) who represent early adopting, mobile savvy users who live a mobile lifestyle. Mobsters are recruited through an opt-in process through the Mob4Hire.com website. Mobsters opinions about their mobile experience help us identify factors that predict customer purchasing behavior and revenue growth across the entire mobile ecosystem. All respondents for this study were rewarded with an incentive for filling out the survey. The survey was fielded in Spring 2010, asking a sample of 5000 Mobsters ages 18 or older about their user experience with respect to their current network operator, mobile phones and mobile applications. The survey respondents were primarily male (82%) with a median age of 25 years. A highly educated sample, 57% of the respondents have a 4-year degree or higher. The worldwide sample of respondents represented 111 countries, 204 network operators and 179 distinct mobile handsets. All references to people, users, respondents, and subscribers in this report refer specifically to this panel sample regarding their mobile phone use. Key Metrics Used in the Study Customer loyalty is a leading indicator of financial growth. This report contains comparative analysis across network operators, identifies top network operators with respect to customer loyalty, customer service, and coverage/reliability quality. Additionally, key drivers of the components of customer loyalty will be presented. The three measures of customer loyalty (and their definitions) are: 1. Retention Loyalty (RLI): The extent to which your customers will remain customers. Will your customers switch to another provider? 2. Advocacy Loyalty Index (ALI): The extent to which your customers will be advocates for your product. Will your customers recommend your products and services to their friends? 3. Purchasing Loyalty Index (PLI): The extent to which your customers will purchase more from you. Will your customers purchase different products and/or increase the amount they purchase from you? These three dimensions form the basis of the RAPID Loyalty Measurement Method; a primer on this research approach can be found in the last section of this report. The RAPID Score indicates the general health of the customer relationship. By measuring all three dimensions of customer loyalty, companies are better able to understand their customers loyalty behaviors, manage their customer relationships more effectively and, consequently, experience accelerated business growth through new and existing customers.
