| | Subscription business model - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Finally, subscription models often require or allow the business to gather substantial amounts of information from the customer (such as magazine mailing lists) and this raises issues of privacy. | | | Also, in many cases (such as integrated software solutions), the subscription pricing structure is designed so that the revenue stream from the recurring subscriptions is considerably greater than the revenue from simple one-time purchases. | | | A subscription model may be beneficial for the software buyer if it forces the supplier to improve its product. |

| | Business Strategy & Innovation Thought Leadership from ManyWorlds.com |
| | Whereas business strategy is primarily about the overall positioning of a business within the business ecosystem, the term "business model" also includes key structural and operational characteristics of a business. | | | A good business strategy should be clearly differentiated from those of other businesses in the same sector -- business strategies that are essentially identical to others are a prescription for value destruction. | | | Rather it is innovation at the process and business model levels – strategic innovation – that is required to achieve exceptional market returns. |

| | TechOnLine - eSoft Accelerating Transition to Subscription-Based Business Model |
| | According to Forrester Research, an industry analyst firm, the subscription-based business model is widely preferred by small-to medium-enterprise markets and it is forecasted that by 2002, small-to medium-enterprise markets will spend $2.2 billion on subscription-based applications. | | | This subscription-based business model moves eSoft from one-time-box-sales to providing recurring revenue through selling software and services that are beyond-the-box. | | | Because many small-to medium-enterprise businesses would prefer to outsource their Internet and IT needs, they stand to benefit the most from subscription-based services. |

| | Additionally, the business model should be enhanced to provide an additional return (perhaps equity-based) to content providers that is allocated proportionately to their use (value) by customers. | | | This is essentially a universal registration subscription service; the credit card requirement insures that the registration is not passed around indiscriminately and that it is easy to upgrade to the next Tier. | | | Monthly subscription fees from Tier 3 and 4 customers (but not much from Tier 2 – this level of the business model does not return enough value to support the large content producers – it is a sales and marketing tool for them; however it may be important to smaller content providers). |
