This has been a huge portion of my worklife for the last 2ish years. My role was basically to capture subscription growth trends, apply these numbers to the projected overall growth, and then plan the actual installation dates of remote cabinets
6 years ago, we didn't offer TV. To go from there, to the first to HD over DSL in NA is not too shabby, imo
