All You Need to Know About a Subscription Economy

What is a Subscription Economy? 

  • This economy started when traditional companies started shifting from a pay-per-product model to a subscription business model.
  • Here companies give access to products and services for a recurring fee.

Today it’s not about your products or services. It’s about what value people get by subscribing to your product/services.

A shift from Product-Focused to People-Focused. There is a shift in how companies view their product experience.

  • Ownership has changed to Access
  • Generalization has become customization
  • Automating improvement
  • Building relationships
  • Responsiveness

Previously customers were happy with a generalized product but now people expect a software:

  • that Fulfills their needs
  • where Products are delivered instantly
  • that solves a problem they are facing

It’s now all about creating an experience for the customer.

Subscription models are on the rise as companies are shifting to cloud service or Software as a Service (SaaS).

Digital Subscriptions

The above graph shows how digital subscriptions are expected to more than double by 2025.

  • By creating personalized service for customers, businesses increase their value. This also builds long-lasting relationships.
  • Companies should bring constant improvement to their products and services by focusing on how people react and respond to their products and services.
  • Companies should automate relationship-building by collecting user information based on how they use the products and services.
  • Companies should shift strategies from transaction centric to relationship focused. This is sure to provide growth over time.

Understanding the customers and monetizing that understanding is how subscription businesses become a success.

  • Thus, embracing the changing subscription economy grows business and relationship with customers.
  • Focusing on user experience and responding to them through your releases, updates, value-based pricing, and support, can create predictable recurring revenue, value, and better customer relationship.
