NEW YORK - (Business Wire) While still a small portion of the total mobile market, business customers offer between 20% and 80% greater ARPUs than the average mobile consumer in emerging markets. As well, mobile business customer revenues will grow over the next five years from one to four percentage points more than the overall mobile services market. But one of the most important statistics from analysis of the mobile business customer in emerging markets is that about 72% of all mobile business customers are self employed or work in businesses of fewer than 100 employees. This presents great opportunities for mobile operators. ABI Research practice director Dan Shey comments: “Smaller businesses in emerging markets still have relatively simple computing and connectivity needs; but these will evolve and become more sophisticated as the regions’ economies grow. Operators in the emerging markets have the opportunity to become the primary solution providers of telecommunications and data services for a vast majority of companies in these regions.” Other important highlights from the analysis: - Data services for emerging market mobile business customers will command an even greater portion of revenues than those in developed region markets, growing to as high as 59% of total mobile services revenues by 2014.
- Mobile broadband services connecting computing devices such as laptops will, in most emerging market regions, provide more revenue than messaging services by 2014.
As part of ABI Research’s Business Mobility Research Service (http://www.abiresearch.com/products/service/Business_Mobility_Research_Service) mobile business customer data is provided for five emerging markets, all updated on a quarterly basis.
