Seizing an opportunity: Telecel’s response to the Econet & NetOne fight

L.S.M Kabweza Avatar

So what do you do when you two business rivals start fighting? No, you don’t sit back and watch! You seize the opportunity! You explain to the market why it’s a smart idea for them to just ditch your two rivals and join your network!

Gotta give it to them!

thanks KSPD.

    i have always liked Telecel’s marketing team, they are geniuses. Remember their response to Econet’s “night chat”? classic. & today? classic!

    In shona the correct term is muchekadzafa and in politics the correct term is “Julius Malema visiting Marikana soon after the shooting to spite Zuma ” and in business its seizing the moment and making money. I love it man , its cheap but it works. Viva telecel !!!

    Telecel must go further and launch a “Dollar a Day promotion” exactly like Netone’s, even for 30 days. It is not against the law.

    Now, that would be fun. Telecel would easily double its subscriber base in a matter of days.

    Don’t you just love fair competition?

    God bless Zimbabwe!!!!

    Telecel are really keeping their eye on the ball. It’s great to see such a large company being so agile and hungry for business

    I just love this. It just shows that the marketing team at telecel has come of age. Now if they would direct some of the energy to improving the IT side of things then it would be be super

    Why not? after all they are not lying.

  9. EntrepreneurCrunch

    Ya ya ya Telecel are on the ball for real. They probably have scooped some subscribers whilst the other two brothers are fighting.

    Hoping to cash in but that did not happen?
