Startups should be selling Speed and Convenience. Not just Products and Services.
In your quest of providing value to the end consumer, two of the most important aspects that you should focus on are SPEED and CONVENIENCE.
In a marketplace where there are many businesses providing a product or service similar to that of yours, the importance of standing apart from the rest cannot be stressed enough. But how do you achieve this? By selling not just products and services, but also speed and convenience.
In this fast-paced modern world, time is a luxury for people and a good experience is something that they have a longing for. By saving people’s time and providing a convenient customer experience, you are simplifying the act of shopping — probably the biggest market advantage that you can create.
Speed and Convenience matter — BIG time!
Amazon is a household name today, a market leader. The launch of Amazon Prime is an outstanding example of how speed and convenience can combine to propel your business to greater heights. The adoption of Amazon Prime at a large scale — that works on a subscription model — also shows that people are readily willing to pay if your offerings can save their time.
Today, you have things like Siri and Google Assistant. Designed using disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, these voice assistant services are the epitome of convenience.
In fact, these futuristic technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning are a big hit because speed and convenience are intrinsic to them, and drive their growing significance.
Audiobooks are such a massive craze today. While reading demands all your attention, you can plug into audiobooks while being on the go. You can enjoy an audiobook with the convenience of preparing your dinner, walking your dog, or even just relaxing with your eyes closed.
When we entered the eyewear market, we knew that speed and convenience would be our most important focus areas. We just had to figure out how it would be inculcated into our offerings. Here is how we are doing it!
