Subscription Box Answers

It’s 100% possible to start a subscription box business on a budget! You don’t need to invest thousands to get up and running. When we started BusterBox, we barely had any money. I invested €3,000 over 12 months, and that was it. Over time, that small investment turned into millions of dollars in revenue and a business that now supports a team of 12.

There are so many examples of people starting their subscription boxes from home on a small budget, growing them into successful businesses. In this episode, I’ll explain exactly how you can start your business with a low budget and achieve success.

In today's episode of Subscription Box Answers, I'm sharing what’s currently working well for us on Meta. We're seeing great results with a combination of Advantage+ audience targeting, lookalike audiences, and engagement strategies to boost social proof. I know several brands using this setup, and it's working exceptionally well for them right now. Of course, this is just one piece of the puzzle when it comes to running successful paid traffic campaigns—you still need a compelling offer, a high-converting website, and creative content that resonates. But definitely give this strategy a look, especially with Q4 just around the corner, as it can help you reduce your CAC.

In this Subscription Box Answers episode, I'm explaining the strategy behind the current bundle offer we're running at BusterBox, where new subscribers get £253 in free gifts. I received a great question this week from someone who wanted to know how we make the finances work when running an offer like this. I'll break this down in detail and share some advice on how you can test bundle offers this Q4 to grab attention and get as many new subscribers signed up as possible.

This can be a powerful offer, but to run something like this, you really need to know your metrics in detail. We make this work because we know our customer lifetime value (LTV) and exactly how much we can spend to acquire a customer while still making sense financially.

What if you could transform your Q4 sales strategy and achieve record-breaking profits for your subscription box business?

In this episode of Subscription Box Answers, Liam Brennan revisits one of the most impactful tactics from earlier this year, the "Reply Yes" process, which has been a revenue game-changer for BusterBox and many other companies that have implemented it.

You'll learn how this powerful method not only drives tens of thousands in extra revenue but also reactivates subscriptions and encourages customers to switch to prepaid plans.

Q4 can be a great time of year to grow and make money, but it can also be tough as things get very competitive, driving up your ad costs. That's why the "Reply Yes" process is so powerful—it will make your customers more valuable, so you make more money and can afford to acquire more of them in the first place. It can also help reduce churn by getting people to commit to longer subscriptions and actually lower your customer acquisition cost by reactivating old customers. I highly recommend implementing this into your company ASAP as it will make Q4 and beyond much less stressful and more profitable for you.

The Subscription Box CashMachine Training reopens on July 31st. I am only opening this version of the beta to 50 more people. You can join the waitlist at www.SubscriptionBoxCashMachine.com.
