1. Optimize your checkout pages for conversion
Increasing your completion rate by 1% could mean thousands of new subscribers. The checkout experience and flow directly impact the completion rate from the look and feel of your checkout pages to pricing options. Clearly display cost details, offer a final order review, provide easy access to refund and privacy policies, and allow a “Save my information” option to open the door for additional marketing and promotion to follow. Pro tip: The more concise your information is, the better.
2. Personalize for profits regardless of digital, physical, or hybrid model
According to Deloitte, 71% of consumers who customize products are prepared to pay a premium price. Give subscribers the flexibility to tailor their subscription by making it possible to have both a subscription and one-time offerings in the same cart. This could mean giving subscribers the chance to try out products and then mix and match options for a high-value, custom box. Lastly, package together service and product offerings—A TV purchase comes with a warranty service every month.
3. Pricing and promotions can unlock LTV
Nailing pricing is more than getting packaging right; it also means lowering the barrier to entry by offering different payment options and cross-promoting to optimize your offerings. Report on promotions at the point of acquisition and subscriber performance downstream—how long they stay, what they buy—to focus acquisition efforts and deliver long-term results. Embed gifting throughout the subscriber lifecycle to build loyalty, like sending welcome gifts, celebrating milestones, or sending a free product on their birthday.
