\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\font-weight: 400;\\u003eIn the old world (let’s call it the Product Economy) it was all about things. Acquiring new customers, shipping commodities, billing for one-time transactions. But in today’s new era, it’s all about relationships. More and more customers are becoming subscribers because subscription experiences built around services meet consumers’ needs better than the static offerings or a single product.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e
