Meal-Kit Subscription
Launch a meal-kit service into one of the most crowded subscription markets in the US: over half of every box goes on food and shipping, and half your customers cancel within months.
Your boxes are better: fewer plastic bags, recipes that take twenty minutes, local produce. The market has heard that before. Two big brands spent years buying customers with discounts, and plenty of shoppers sign up for the first-box deal and leave. The decisions are about churn and margin: how deep to discount the first box, whether to court families who spend more or couples who stay longer, how much to spend on quality versus delivery reliability, and how many people to keep in fulfilment when demand swings with the season. It teaches subscription economics under pressure: high cost of goods, customer acquisition that only pays back if people stay, and why loyalty is worth more than signups.
