  • Resumen

  • Starting your subscription box? Or maybe you’ve already launched—and now you’re realizing there’s a lot more to it than you expected? You’re not alone. In this quick, 10-minute Friday Fuel episode, I’m sharing five lessons I wish I could go back and tell myself before launching my own subscription box. These are the things that catch new box owners off guard—and if you know them early, they’ll save you stress, money, and momentum down the road. This episode isn’t about perfection. It’s about being intentional—making smart choices that set your business up for long-term success instead of early burnout. One of the biggest mindset shifts new subscription box owners need to make? Your box isn’t about you. You might be curating products you love (and that’s great!), but your box has to be about your subscriber. What does she need? What makes her smile? What problem are you helping her solve? When you build your subscription box with your customer in mind, everything else—from your messaging to your retention strategy—becomes so much easier. A strong, engaged waitlist is what makes a successful launch possible. If you skip the relationship-building part and jump straight to selling, you’re likely to be disappointed. Most new box owners focus almost entirely on getting subscribers—and forget about keeping them. But if you want your subscription box to be profitable, retention matters just as much as growth. In this episode, I’m sharing a simple mindset shift that will help you boost retention without spending more on product. You’ll be surprised at how small touches can make a big impact. It happens every time—new box owners underestimate how much that first box will cost. Between product, packaging, shipping, and all the little things (like tissue paper and filler!), the expenses add up fast. That’s why it’s so important to budget with margin—and expect the unexpected. The subscription box business isn’t a sprint. It’s a marathon. When you give yourself permission to grow steadily and build a strong foundation, you set yourself up for long-term success. This week, I want you to take 10 quiet minutes and ask yourself:“Am I building my subscription box for me… or for my ideal customer?” Look at your product selection, your messaging, and your social posts. Are they focused on you, or are they truly speaking to the person you want to serve? Refocus your energy—and you’ll see a big difference. Want to keep your subscribers longer?
