Subscriber’s problems in using carrier’s services
Mobile carrier has huge systems of both its own and content provider’s services based on the following platforms:
• USSD
• SMS
• IVR
The advantage of this systems is an opportunity to dynamically change carrier’s services.
But these systems also have the following disadvantages:
• The necessity for subscriber to remember a big amount of numbers. USSD menu service can solve this problem partially
• No opportunity to build lustrous design as opposed to the software developed for all platforms
• No opportunity of integration with other applications installed on subscriber’s phone
• For IVR services , it takes too long for a subscriber to have the required command executed as he has to listen to full record and struggle through it to the item he needs.
System’s components
“Mobile assistant” system includes mobile applications (one per each of 7 mobile platforms) and a desktop application for configuring files containing descriptions of carrier’s services.

Carrier’s benefits Operator gets system which makes it easier for subscribers to access services, therefore the following outputs can be expected:
1. Growing subscriber’s loyalty
2. Growing usage of services, including paid ones, that leads to direct economic effect. For example, usage of short numbers for different services
3. Operator gets opportunity to deliver news (e.g. from RSS feed to subscriber’s mobile phone, right into the carrier oriented infrastructure application)
4. Operator gets the software platform which can be used as a basis for other innovations. For example, different applications can be integrated into the platform, particularly carrier’s RBT system, such application has already been developed by OLSOFT for IMMO Company (GOOD’OK) on iPhone, Android, Windows Phone 7 and J2ME. In this case, such RBT app won’t exist as a separate application, but as a “Mobile assistant” menu item
5. Offline call-center request voice system can be integrated into the application. Such system is worked out in OLSOFT Company and can be easily deployed on carrier’s side based on “Mobile assistant” platform
Carrier’s benefits
The usage of “Special Offer” module integrated into “Mobile Assistant” allows to:
o Cut expenses on advertising campaigns made for special events promotion (when the offer is targeted for the carrier’s existing subscribers)
o Raise the share of subscribers, actively participating in special offers through “Participate” button placed in the app. It means that:
Information about the offer is delivered directly into “Mobile Assistant” application on subscriber’s phone
Subscriber doesn’t have to remember SMS numbers or USSD commands
Subscriber can immediately take part in the event by pressing “Participate” button in description message
Subscriber can find the short number of the offer in news text, thus he can share it with friends and family
Subscriber’s benefits
1. Subscriber gets colorful and handy application, which makes it easier for him to interact with carrier services, thus improving his loyalty
2. Since “Mobile Assistant” carries features, frequently needed for subscriber (e.g. balance check), subscriber will be actively using such an application, thus rising the possibility of interaction with other carrier’s services

In the future, It is necessary to keep services configuration file up to date by using “Services configuration editor” desktop application which is also delivered by OLSOFT Company in the package with Mobile Assistant.
