Join the next evolution of the Subscription Economy and Prepare Your Business for Growth and Innovation

Digital Solutions Economy

Membership-based business models are increasingly taking hold in all kinds of industries. Even in economically difficult times, they provide stable and reliable revenue streams. Initially this meant a move towards subscriptions but with the Digital Solutions Economy, it includes consumption-based , outcome based or similar models that are proving lucrative for companies.

According to Gartner, by 2023, 75% of organizations selling direct to consumers will offer subscription services. And we see that this trend is definitively not restricted to B2C model, while the lines between B2B and B2C are blurring.

Key considerations for subscription billing and revenue management

Membership-based business models are increasingly taking hold in all kinds of industries. Even in economically difficult times, they provide stable and reliable revenue streams. A transformation towards subscriptions and consumption-based offerings is lucrative for most companies – if done right. The 6 Things You Need to Consider:

Traditional unit-based pricing methods with surcharges and discounts don’t work anymore. It’s necessary to rethink pricing strategies and associated processes.

New services need to be scalable. In subscription-based models, starting small and going big is the norm, not the exception.

Flexible contracts replace fixed orders. During the customer lifecycle, they are likely to change, with additional services being added and removed or specific entitlements granted.

A reliable, always up to date view on the actual product and service usage is key. This requires collecting, measuring, and processing of large amounts of transactional data.

It’s essential to establish an end-to-end process including web shops, quoting tools, invoicing, collection, revenue recognition, fraud management, analytics, etc.

More than before, companies will need to work with partners to provide the services their customers demand. This requires a partner settlement with a range of contract agreements (e.g. revenue share).
