Last night at Panera, created a Trello board that will serve as the kanban board for the near term. Bonus benefit: good for keeping notes on the ideas (also kind of fun to use). Collated all of the ideas that we have come up with thus far to put into the list. There is also a list for abandoned ideas in different states.
We talked about various new ideas.
So, the idea that we will explore at the next long event is… (drumroll…)
Recurring payment management
We think people might benefit from seeing all of their recurring subscriptions. With Netflix, Github, gaming services, phone bills, newspaper subscriptions, and other regular payments, it’s hard to keep track of everything. We think that people who see all of the services they are subscribed to will be likely to want to cancel their subscription.
The hypotheses that we are going to try to test first are:
Hypothesis: Some general consumers spend too much money on subscriptions.
Hypothesis: It is painful in terms of time to cancel a subscription.
Hypothesis: When shown their subscriptions, 10% of people want to cancel at least one subscription.
If you would be willing to have us call you next Saturday (the 21st), please email panozzaj@gmail.com with your phone number or other contact information. We will reciprocate customer interviews.
Thanks!
