So, who are the customers?
Mary — the money saver — who recently saw an ad from Penguin Tele on its new trade-in promotion and hoping to get a better deal for the same services she is currently having with her provider.
John — the loyal tech savvy but not — who had been with Penguin Tele for a long time but recently had been increasingly feeling frustrated about its billing and confused about all the web log-in and apps that one has to check to understand the bills.
