9. Launch a Subscription Box
- Estimated income: $6,000-$400,000+/month
- Requirements: business management, digital marketing, and site maintenance skills
A subscription box service is a business model that periodically delivers a product package to customers. One popular example is the Dollar Shave Club.
This business type has gained more traction in recent years. Over 50% of online shoppers subscribe to at least one subscription service to receive a convenient, personalized experience.
The main benefits of running a subscription box service are generating recurring income and fostering a long-term relationship with customers. That said, to succeed in this online business, you must sell a product that people are willing to pay for repeatedly.
A good example is Butcher Box. This subscription service delivers various kinds of meat. The brand’s unique selling point is that its meat is organically sourced.
