Networkization - Episode 2: Why Subscription Matters in Servitization

  • Shifts Risk & Responsibility

In a pure product sale, the customer assumes all risk once an asset leaves your warehouse, and the vendor “run with the money”. In a subscription model, the vendor retains ownership and is responsible for uptime, performance, and ongoing service. This shift requires robust operational and financial processes.

  • Ensures Recurring Revenue Visibility

Rather than recognizing revenue in one lump sum, subscription contracts establish predictable billing schedules, monthly, quarterly, or usage-based. This predictability is critical when you eventually layer on #Networkization (customer-premise devices actively “talking” back to you).

  • Accelerates Customer Adoption

Many buyers prefer a consumption, based model over large capital expenditures (CapEx). By lowering the barrier to entry, you can attract a broader addressable market and build stickier relationships from Day 1.
