Visible's pay-as-you-go service hasn't approached brand exposure in the traditional way many companies do with traditional advertising on TV.

Visible sees an opportunity in the 50 million people who change carriers per year with its simple, $40-per-month plan.

"We absolutely want to be one of the top choices and consideration in the wireless category," Visible CMO Minjae Ormes told Business Insider."I know that is an ambitious goal and it's a crowded market, but we believe what we're offering is differentiated enough in both the experience as well as the price and the offering that we have a good shot at it."Wireless giant Verizon launched Visible in May 2018 and claims to be the first digital-only carrier in the US.
