At Fortunet - E-Commerce Investment Banking we were curious to hear how different players in the e-commerce ecosystem identify the key trends that are shaping the space these days. For Bryan Starck, CEO of 100 Celsius - Ecommerce Subscription Growth Agency, the primary focus is on increasing LTV. He suggests achieving this through subscription models and paid membership programs. As there is only so much you can do to increase prices and AOV, and CAC trends seem to be heading in one direction, subscription and membership strategies are worth exploring.
