The industry treats regulatory complexity as a tax on growth — a cost to minimise, delay, or push onto whichever partner will absorb it most cheaply. That instinct is backwards, and it's costing operators deals they should be winning.
Eighty percent of people don't answer calls from numbers they don't recognise (Pew Research). For calls carrying a "Spam Likely" label, the answer rate drops into the single digits the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) puts it at roughly 9%.
Somewhere in your customer base, a stop-sell date is already active — and the customer probably doesn't know it yet. Across multiple markets, incumbent operators are retiring the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), the copper-based infrastructure that has carried voice calls for over a century.
Somewhere in a client's server room, a burglar alarm is quietly dialing out over a 2G module that will stop working the day the carrier switches off the network — and nobody on the customer's side has scheduled a replacement.
Two service providers with identical revenue can sell for very different prices — and the gap often has nothing to do with customer count. It comes down to what a buyer finds when they open the hood.
A single failed cutover can cost a service provider more than the deal itself — a churned account, a damaged reference, and a stalled pipeline of referrals behind it. That is the real risk every carrier, reseller, or MSP weighs before proposing a large-scale migration to a customer.
SIP trunk fraud is not a theoretical risk. It is an active, industrialised threat that generated an estimated $38.95 billion in global losses in 2023 (Communications Fraud Control Association, CFCA Global Fraud Loss Survey). For operators and service providers, the exposure is structural: you sit between the PSTN and your customers, which means every fraudulent call that passes through your infrastructure is, by default, your financial and reputational problem.
Enterprise demand for Microsoft Teams calling is no longer emerging — it's here. Teams Phone has crossed tens of millions of active PSTN users globally, and your enterprise customers are already asking which operator can support them. The real strategic question is not whether to enter this market, but how.
When a Private Equity fund or a strategic acquirer evaluates your telecoms business, they do not stop at your revenue line. They look at what you actually own.
