It didn’t all change in March 2020. Not really. The UK high street has been in the throes of a gradual revolution for decades. From the rise of ecommerce, to the birth of mobile, social commerce, and a growing emphasis on experience, change has been underway for a while. In fact for many, the pandemic has acted as a wake-up call. Digital transformation was no longer a ‘nice to have’ but a matter of survival.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedWe’re tackling another big name in this week’s episode of Tradeoffs — music and audio content streaming provider Spotify . Hiten and I sit down to talk through Spotify’s successes and think about what they need to do to maintain their leading position in the market. It’s an interesting topic as, until now, Spotify’s maintained a singular focus on music discovery as their core value proposition . The Tradeoffs Even though listeners have a myriad of listening choices, 42% of them don’t actually engage with the product every day. Spotify needs to find ways to pull in those users and increase engagement without alienating their core customer base. Freemium acquisition built a huge base of users who are monetized through ads. There are additional revenue opportunities outside of music streaming and discovery that can convert these users but will require Spotify to move away from consumerized thinking. Spotify is known as one of the top curators of music and audio content. Much like Netflix has already done, they’ll need to differentiate their brand with original content as new niche streaming services flood the market. This will require changing how they think about commoditizing their product. This is a ProfitWell Recur production—the first media network dedicated entirely to the SaaS and subscription space.…

They’re an established leader in the market and one of the first movers in the space, but the tradeoffs they’ve made to get there have put the company in dire straits. The biggest problem Evernote has is product-market fit. As big as Evernote is, they really don’t have a handle on what their customers actually want. And while a strong freemium acquisition strategy netted them 225M users, they’re not taking advantage of that base at all.
