Abstract

America Online (AOL) suffers an all-day blackout on Aug 7, 1996, and the outage represents the type of obstacles the company must overcome to attract and maintain its subscriber base. While AOL has six million subscribers and adds as many as 20,000 to 25,000 new subscribers each day, it also sees 50% of its new customers terminate the service within a year. The turnover, or 'churn' rate, is not unusual for the industry and is a result of the company's massive marketing campaign that gives new users 15 free hours. To keep those users, AOL plans a relaunch effort in Sep 1996, when it will release new software that is easier to use and provides faster service. AOL faces a challenge from both ends of the user spectrum. It has already attracted most of the technically savvy users, some of whom have left AOL for less expensive Internet service providers. On the other hand, novice users often find AOL too confusing.

49. What went wrong for William Razzouk at AOL

Subjects

Abstract

William J. Razzouk was chief operating officer at America Online (AOL) for four months before he left the company, and most available information seems to indicate that he was simply a poor choice for the AOL. Razzouk's employment ended after a telephone call from AOL CEO Stephen M. Case, even though AOL later released a notice that Razzouk had resigned because he did not want to relocate. Case continues to claim that the parting was mutual, and Razzouk will not comment on his departure, in part because his severance package depends on his keeping quiet about the deal. Razzouk was hired to help AOL retain customers and had a good record at his former employer, Federal Express, for keeping customers satisfied. Insiders say that Razzouk failed to demonstrate the kind of quick results that Case expected. Razzouk's heavy-handed corporate management style was also inappropriate for the casual environment at AOL.
