Subscription Services
The owner of Mission came in last Monday morning all fired up about an episode of his guilty pleasure, Shark Tank. He had found a new company that specifically handles subscriptions. Now we have been doing coffee subscriptions for years, but the website we were using is clunky at best, and honestly not that reliable. (Having a customer come and talk to you about having their whole office board attempt to subscribe with you and not being able to is a real bummer.) So on that note, I was on a mission for Mission to try this new company. I have to say, I am super pleased. As a designer who is not a coder, this setup has been super easy, and allows me to be 80% and on the market as I work on getting to be 100% perfect! It is a company called Cratejoy and I highly recommend their services!
So we have five subscription boxes to chose from, some are just coffee, but others are supporting amazing an amazing non-profit, a missionary near and dear to our hearts, and a charter school where a portion of the proceeds go back to the organization itself! Getting it off the ground in a week has been a bit of a feat for me, and while I hope to improve some of my timelines now that I know what I am doing, I am pretty pleased with the start of it.
