Parks Associates, in partnership with Bango, has released its new white paper Effective Bundling: Pain Points and Expectations from Subscription Leaders, featuring custom primary research of industry leaders across the streaming video, music, education, and productivity markets to assess the effectiveness of bundling strategies.

“Partnerships are increasingly driving acquisition and retention,” said Kristen Hanich, Research Director, Parks Associates. “Partnerships enhance brand awareness and market reach, reduce customer churn, and remove friction from the user sign-up process, in addition to increasing overall customer satisfaction.”
“Successful partnerships also don’t need to be one-off deals – investing in long-term integrations, particularly with telcos, may pay dividends,” Hanich concluded.
