Digital Hotspots
Audience Analytics and Advertising Current State
More of our customers are using smart phones, tablets, and other devices to access live and custom content. We have a limited availability of custom programming and mobile capabilities, and our customers are leaving. We don’t know enough about customers and their behavior to properly value advertising, or to deliver audience segments to sponsors. We don’t provide the personalized, consistent, or interactive experiences customers are seeking.
Desired Future State
We have the precise data we need to understand the customers of our media, their behavior, social sentiments, and preferences. We reward our customers with loyalty programs, and provide them engaging, interactive, and consistent experiences anywhere, anytime. We integrate our media with loyalty programs to attract customers, and to connect sponsors with customers. Our sales force has better visibility to our inventory, knows where to focus sales efforts, and enables our sponsors to precisely target their advertising.

Collaboration and Sales Productivity Current State
Our teams have dificulty collaborating to eficiently bring content and innovative services to our customers. Our programming, playout, and ad placement worklows are slow and ineficient.

Desired Future State
We have responsive teams that react quickly to insight to create and deliver the programming customers want. Our content teams and partners can collaborate from anywhere, anytime, to produce relevant media in demand. We have streamlined content creation, and automated playout and ad placement. Our sales staff effectively manages our advertising inventory, helps sponsors understand advertising options, and provides our sponsors with the segments and individuals they are targeting. Our marketing team has the tools to be able to price targeted advertising and demonstrate how these ads reach the intended audience.

Roadmap
Collaboration and Sales Productivity
Current State
Our customers expect to be able to choose from a wide range of media and entertainment, and to have media delivered anywhere, anytime. We are losing customers to media outlets and distributors that are able to offer personalized programming on demand. Our single broadcast channel restricts the growth of our audience and limits our revenue growth.
Desired Future State
We can offer personalized content to customers anywhere, anytime, and on their preferred devices. We can easily ingest and store video, apply digital rights management, and distribute it on demand using a content delivery network. We can automate playout of our programming, increasing our productivity, and enabling us to offer pop-up channels. We can simultaneously deliver multiple streams of content to any devices and integrate different media types to increase customer offerings, audience size, and advertising sales. We can index content using AI capabilities such as pattern recognition to enable customers to search video on demand, monetizing archived content. We can add subtitles and translation so our content can be sold globally.
