INSIGHT

One-time vs Ongoing Value

  • Education businesses often fail to retain customers because they conflate one-time educational value with ongoing value.
  • True continuity comes from services or consumables that customers repeatedly use, not just from the educational content itself.
ADVICE

Price Education and Continuity Separately

  • Price one-time educational value high relative to what customers will pay and price consumables lower to ensure stickiness.
  • Separate upfront payment and monthly continuity pricing to reflect their different values and reduce churn.
ANECDOTE

GymLaunch's Hidden Value Secret

  • GymLaunch's enterprise value mainly came from its ongoing service aspects, not just education.
  • They ran ads and re-sold proven ad creatives as consumables with high margins, which created recurring value.
