From software and music to cars and DVDs, products that we once purchased are transforming into services to which we now subscribe. With fewer upfront costs, and more flexibility, selection, and control for the customer, subscription services are clearly the future. However, as even the best in the industry can attest, running a subscription business is hard.
Just ask any executive who runs a subscription business and they’ll confirm that they were forced to build their own infrastructure, had limited pricing options, and could only scale by adding more people. Why? Because traditional systems were built for one-time transactions in the product world, not recurring transactions in the services world. Subscription businesses lacked the power, automation, and integration that a subscription business requires.
