Abstract

The telecommunications industry faces significant challenges due to the high rate of customer churn, which can lead to substantial revenue loss and decreased market share. This study aims to investigate predictive models for churn analysis in the telecom industry by employing advanced analytical techniques. We explore the factors that contribute to customer churn, such as service quality, pricing strategies, and customer satisfaction, and develop a comprehensive model to predict customer churn with high accuracy. The research employs a dataset containing customer information and churn status, and applies various predictive modeling algorithms, including logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, and neural networks. The results demonstrate that predictive models can effectively identify customers at risk of churn, enabling telecom companies to implement targeted strategies to retain valuable customers and enhance their market competitiveness. The findings provide valuable insights for the telecom industry in terms of customer relationship management and churn prevention, ultimately contributing to the development of more sustainable business practices.
