18 THE CVxEXPO I NOVEMBER 12 – 14, 2024 24 WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2024 8:30 a.m. – Complimentary breakfast & coffee served in foyer outside of Red Bird Meeting Rooms 9:00 – 9:40 a.m. – Meeting Room Red Bird K&L Add ARPU by Accessorizing Your Access Sales Internet access remains the principal service in dollar volume sold in the channel today. The insatiable demand for increased bandwidth and mission-critical reliability means that’s unlikely to change anytime soon. On the other hand, competition is driving rates down and increasing the customers’ number of choices. In this session, tech advisors will learn how to add both ARPU and stickiness to accounts by “accessorizing” their core access sales. Learn how crossselling solutions such as wireless backup, monitoring, circuit protection and facilities management can boost your bottom line instead of working twice as hard for the same returns.
