The Challenge

Operators viewed the antennas as expensive hardware with little strategic value. Limited perceived impact, slow traction, and price objections left the business unable to break through.

The Innovatics Approach.

1

We shifted the narrative from product to solution. Instead of selling antennas, we positioned the company as a strategic partner solving critical coverage gaps.

2

To back this up, we built a consulting arm that could sit with telecom operators, unpack the business impact, and guide adoption.

3

Finally, we introduced a consult-to-sell framework tailored for Middle Eastern and African markets, ensuring that every conversation tied technology to measurable outcomes.

The repositioning transformed the company from a hardware vendor into a recognized solution provider. Within months, 4 POCs were launched with Tier-1 telecom operators across the Middle East and Africa, generating an $8M pipeline and firmly establishing the brand as a strategic player in the region.
