Client Overview
On June 26, 2024, a key opinion leader (KOL) in the financial sector reached out to Mercury Technology Solutions with an urgent plea for help. With a solid base of over 2,000 paid subscribers, she faced a dire situation; the platform she depended on was on the verge of liquidation due to financial difficulties. This KOL primarily operated a moderated chat room where she shared financial insights, making the continuation of her subscriptions crucial.
Challenge: Recovering from a Damaged System
The challenge was significant. She needed a swift, seamless, and strategic transition to a new platform—a solution that wouldn't disrupt her business or cause her to lose subscribers. At this juncture, she was forfeiting a hefty 30% of her revenue to her existing platform.
