Episode 2219

How many subscriptions do you have right now? I’m embarrassed to say I don’t know the answer for myself. It’s a lot. The other day I signed up for a nutrition tracker—naturally, it’s a renewing subscription—and I wondered, how many other things am I paying for month after month? It’s a problem. And where there’s a problem, there’s an opportunity—right? You should know that if you’ve been listening for a while. A caller wants to make a product to help you better manage your paid subscriptions, and not just manage, but also save money. I’ll say right now this is a great idea! We need it.
"With so many subscription products out now, I'm wondering if there's any value in creating a tool to manage them. The idea is that it would look through your receipts and email confirmations to create a master list of subscriptions and the total pricing, then users could cancel what they don't need and potentially save a lot of money. As for the pricing, well, you guessed it—it will be by subscription! I'd make the case that the service will save users much more than it costs. Alternatively, it could be a one-time use that cleans up their subscriptions as part of a New Year, New You package. "
