Sprint
License Price: US$ 3,740.00
Sprint has spent the last three years repairing its brand and improving its performance following a period of customer service and network problems that resulted in major customer losses. The company has invested significantly to address these problems and regain lost market share. Sprint continues to adopt a disruptive strategy to market leadership. However, such a strategy is risky in the competitive US market, and past attempts by Sprint to pursue this strategy haven’t always served in the company’s best interests.
