(NYSE:CALX), today announced Dakota Central Telecommunications (Dakota Central) has realized new levels of marketing success by utilizing Calix Marketing Cloud (CMC) to distribute real-time subscriber behavioral insights to its entire marketing team. Dakota Central was one of the first telecommunications cooperatives to deploy fiber and offer broadband services in North Dakota.

The data and insights provided by CMC have allowed Dakota Central to improve their segmentation across all marketing channels and reduce overall campaign costs. “Today, every marketer is looking for ways to infuse behavioral analytics into campaign planning and execution. That is exactly what we are delivering through Calix Marketing Cloud,” said Matt Collins, Chief Marketing Officer at Calix. “Valuable data is flowing through every CSP’s network, yet very few are utilizing this data to optimize their marketing campaigns. CMC unlocks the power of this data and delivers real-time insights into the hands of marketing teams.
