Smart Bulletins give ISPs a higher level of interaction with subscribers, make customer support easier, and improve subscriber response.  They let the provider deliver a detailed, personalized message with options for follow-on actions, while respecting personal preferences previously indicated.  Typically, ISPs use Smart Bulletins to give subscribers a heads up regarding some aspect of their service, whether it relates to individual data usage, specific equipment they use, or a tailored promotion.  Smart Bulletins know who the subscriber is, details of their service plan, opt-out/in preferences, and other information derived from interactive responses and/or back-office applications.  Automated bulletins are personalized dynamically, thanks to interaction with the product's extensive, internal database.  A Smart Bulletin also knows when it has displayed on the screen, all interactions that have resulted, and when it should display a reminder or a sequential message, if at all.  "When subscribers receive generic alerts that may or may not pertain to them, and that keep popping up over and over, they become annoyed," stated Jane Christ, PerfTech Sales V.P.  "Subscribers are left with a negative perception of the ISP's service.  With Smart Bulletins, this doesn't happen.  The customized message is always relevant, respects subscriber preferences, and has been well received by ISP customers and subscribers alike."
