Optimized Ecommerce EP 067 – How We MULTIPLY Growth & SUSTAIN Income In Ecommerce!
Listen to the episode:Welcome to Episode 067 of Optimized Ecommerce – How We MULTIPLY Growth & SUSTAIN Income In Ecommerce! I’m your host, Tanner Larsson, CEO of BGS.
BGS means Build Grow Scale! It is a community that we founded where eCommerce entrepreneurs and physical product sellers come to learn how to take their businesses to the next level.
Here’s just a taste of what we talked about today:
Tanner discussed the meaning of Continuity Income and why your ecom business needs continuity.
Continuity Income is revenue earned on a ‘residual’ or ‘ongoing’ basis after the first sale. This income comes in automatically on a scheduled plan.
The following are the reasons why your ecom business needs continuity:
- Ecommerce is a tough business.
- Most ecom businesses are cash poor.
- Most ecom businesses have unpredictable income.
- Most ecommerce businesses start at zero every month.
Adding continuity to your business solves all the problems that are stated above.
And then, Tanner also talked about how to run a continuity program in your ecom business.
Important note:
- You do not and should not try to become a subscription only ecommerce company.
- It is far easier and more profitable to incorporate one or more continuity streams into your business while continuing to sell existing products.
- You should make continuity as a recurring revenue which is the focal point of your business.
Recurring Income Core:
- Should be the primary profit center in your business.
- Focus all your marketing and sales efforts into funneling people into your continuity program.
- Restructure your business if necessary.
- This is a long term play that will ultimately result in more money and less stress.
Types of recurring income core:
- Consumable subscriptions
- Subscription boxes
- Digital membership
- Newsletters (physical or digital)
- Buyers club
- Associations
- Micro continuity
We also discussed a few other fun topics, including:
- 3 styles of recurring income core.
- 3 best ways to sell your continuity program.
- How can you implement a continuity program in your business?
But you’ll have to watch or listen to the episode to hear about those!
