Micro-Subscriptions: Buzzword or Breakthrough?
As I continue the roll out SOHO Admin Force, I’m exploring every angle to make our services more accessible, flexible, and human. One idea that’s caught my attention lately is micro-subscriptions. You may have heard the term floating around – but what does it actually mean? And more importantly, could it work for a service-based business like mine?
What Are Micro-Subscriptions?
Micro-subscriptions are small, targeted payments tied to specific features, timeframes, or tasks. Instead of paying $99/month for a full suite of services, you might pay:
- $3 for adding Salesforce fields
- $5 for Salesforce object creation
- $10 for WordPress blog posts
It’s about low-commitment access to high-value moments – without locking users into long-term plans.
How Is This Different from Menu Pricing?
At first glance, micro-subscriptions might sound like glorified à la carte pricing. But here’s the difference:
- Menu pricing is static: you pay once for a fixed deliverable.
- Micro-subscriptions are dynamic: they offer ongoing access to a specific feature, tool, or service for a short period or limited scope.
Think of it like subscribing to a single channel instead of the whole streaming bundle. You’re not buying the movie – you’re buying the ability to watch it for a day.
Could This Work for SOHO Admin Force?
That’s what I want to find out – with your help.
Here are a few micro-subscription ideas I’ve been kicking around:
- Create Salesforce objects
- Add a custom Salesforce field
- Salesforce Knowledge Base maintenance
- WordPress plugin maintenance
- WordPress blog posting
These would be low-cost, high-impact tasks that don’t require a full subscription or long-term commitment.
What Do You Think?
I’m genuinely curious:
- Would you use micro-subscriptions for services like these?
- What kinds of Salesforce or WordPress tasks would you want available at a micro level?
- Do you see this as a helpful model – or just another buzzword?
Drop a comment, send me a message, or reply with your thoughts. I’m building SOHO Admin Force to serve real people with real needs – and your feedback helps shape what comes next.
Personally, I’m leaning towards micro-subscriptions just being another buzzword but, as a customer, I do think I might like the ability to purchase services like this. Thanks (in advance) – I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
Happy Wednesday,
Jeff
