Dealing With Revenue Churn And Subscription Renewal
Across a wide spectrum of service providers the single most important challenge is to consolidate revenue stream. In hindsight, it means firm control on subscription renewal. Many enterprises have built significant switching costs. A high switching cost serves as a penalty for being unfaithful to the existing service provider. Consumers have become smarter. They do not want to be with a brand where they lose the option of switching. So they straight away reject service providers who incorporate switching costs. There is a smarter way to handle subscription renewal.
Service providers can make use billing analytics to track consumers. Recurring billing for an old customer indicates brand loyalty. Coupons and discounts can be offered to customers depending on the volume of purchases made. The case history of every customer is auto archived in the invoicing software. With recurring purchases, there are recurring payments and the customer moves up the loyalty ladder. The software shows the different grade of discounts he is eligible for. Moral of the story is that coupon, billing and discount billing can be a great way to personalize customer relationship management efforts. Again, Netfunda OneClickBill scores high on this multi tasking ability. For subscription renewal, service providers can set the due date of payment for every customer. The subscription billing software sends automatic reminders built in aesthetic invoice templates. Further custom fields can be added to determine penalties for late payments and rewards for early bird payments.

Streamlining The Affiliate Management System

With cloud hosted billing software it becomes so easy for service providers to transcend boundaries. They can appoint affiliates and resellers in the overseas market and sell to a global audience. Netfunda OneClickBill works with ambassador.com and zferral.com – the two most awesome sites for affiliate and reseller management. Hence affiliate and reseller billing is executed with ease.
