Subscription programs are optimal for acquiring customer loyalty, but companies must structure them accordingly to accelerate profitability. How should you leverage subscriptions for your business model? eCommerce professional Chase Alderton observes three distinct types of subscription models. Subscribe and save programs offer customers discounts on repeat purchases, while subscription boxes are products curated to consumer preferences. The most overlooked yet fruitful offering is the membership model, which requires customers to sign up to receive exclusive access to deals, promotions, and support.
