Hey guys, Tanner here. I want to talk to you a little bit about building in continuity for your business, how you can have recurring revenue in an ecommerce business. Whenever I talk about this on stage or I do a presentation or a training everybody’s always like, “Oh, my ecommerce business is different. We’re in this niche and recurring revenue doesn’t work for us,” or “we sell blank and recurring revenue doesn’t work for us.“ Well, the reality is that your business is not that unique. No business is unique in that regard. All businesses can benefit from and leverage recurring revenue, specifically in ecommerce businesses. Now, while some may lend themselves to it more, certain niches and things like that, at some level it can all be built in.

Not all data is created equal, though. There are literally thousands of things you could measure about your business, your products, your marketing, your customers, and unless you have an unlimited supply of time and money there's no way to measure it all.
