Do you have a product-based business? Are you selling products via an Etsy store, in a pop-up shop or a retail store? Are you selling one-off products online? Adding a subscription box to your existing business is a no-brainer and can offer you so many benefits!

Adding a subscription box provides:

A stable, predictable revenue stream - recurring payments benefit your business in so many ways, including stabilizing your cash flow.
Customer loyalty - subscribers have committed to regularly purchasing products from you.
Increased lifetime value (LTV) - do you know the LTV of your customers? My subscribers stay for an average of 18 months, generating thousands of dollars of revenue each.
Opportunities for cross-selling and upselling - pair your box items with additional one-off items from your shop.
Scalability - packing and shipping 500 of the same thing is much more efficient than 500 different orders.

Have I convinced you to add a subscription box to your business? I have 5 simple steps to follow to make it happen.

Identify your best customers:
Who are they?
How often do they shop with you?
Take a look at your top 20 customers and dial into who they are.
Identify your best-sellers:
What categories are your best sellers?
What do people buy from you repeatedly?
What are people asking for more of?
Set your pricing structure:
What is your average order value (AOV)?
What is the AOV of your top 100 customers?
Price your subscription box in that range.
Create exclusivity and scarcity:
What are the benefits of being a subscriber?
Make items only available in the box.
Make them only available by subscription.
Create FOMO with your customer base - make them want to be part of something exclusive.
Create a great user experience:
Are your website and the checkout process clear and easy to follow?
Make it easy for people to update or cancel their subscriptions.
Provide a higher level of customer service - remember your subscribers are the VIPs of your business.

A bonus piece of advice, which is really the best piece of advice, is to talk about your subscription box a LOT. If you want to create a business that is 75% recurring revenue instead of depending on one-off sales, you’ve got to make it the main thing in your business. And that means talking about it… a lot!
