Linear OTT’s Biggest Value Proposition: Churn Doesn’t Matter 15 September 2015

Roger Lynch Sling TV IBC Show 2015

 

Roger Lynch, the head of Dish Network-owned linear OTT provider Sling TV, isn’t concerned about subscriber churn. At least, that’s the face he presented to audiences at IBC in a keynote presentation. The reason? Churn is not such an expensive proposition for OTT video services providers as it is for pay-TV operators.

“This is another way that OTT is different from pay-TV,” Lynch said. “In the U.S., the average cable company has a subscriber acquisition cost of $850.” That cost includes marketing to potential subs, signing them up, providing them with leased set-top boxes, and so on, all adding to an operator’s costs. That’s an investment that the pay TV operator has to get back from the customer, meaning it’s in the operator’s best interests to keep that customer for as long as possible.

“With a service like Sling it’s just the opposite. It’s almost no cost to bring someone on,” he said. Sling TV offers a free trial, and if subscribers drop off after the trial ends, they can still come back later. “We make it really easy to sign up.”
