Advanced Training for Accounting Professionals
The world is moving from products and services to subscriptions, favoring access and transformations over ownership and deliverables. The advantages to a subscription model are many, including: Predictable revenue; not selling services, but creating annuities with a lifetime value that far exceeds whatever you paid to acquire them; collective knowledge of your customers, which is a competitive advantage that cannot be duplicated; the customer relationship is at the center of the firm; not pricing a product or service, but rather a series of customer transformations, peace of mind, and convenience; and it is easier to predict demand and plan capacity more effectively.

Uber and Airbnb do not utilize the same dashboard as taxi companies and Marriott hotels. KPIs for subscription-based businesses are well developed, and this session will describe some of the more critical ones. We will also explore customer centric KPIs that measure how customers define the success of your firm.
