RANT: @runnersworld launched a subscription. GREAT! I love Runners World and want them to win. They have 18k sign ups. GREAT. But...they charge $30...A YEAR. That's $540,000 a year in revenue. That's just crazy to me.https://digiday.com/media/year-runners-world-signed-18k-digital-membership-program/ …

I do not understand why most companies do not charge more. I think most people undercharge because 1) they copy others 2) an employee doesn't wanna suggest charging more and looking stupid/get fired 3) media folk/journalists want to be affordable for everyone

But...with $540k a year in subscription revenue...that's nothing. You might as well make it free. I think a company like Runners World could surely make tens of millions in subscription revenue, training plans, and other things like that...if they got their pricing right.

My opinion (which came from people much smarter than me) is that most companies should charge as much as 10x what they're currently charging.https://www.businessinsider.com/marc-andreessen-advice-to-startups-raise-prices-2016-6 …

@theSamParr big fan of the@TheHustle but I have mixed feelings about this post. Does this mean that if a company wants to advertise with@TheHustle they should not expect an ROI? Or is it up to the company to determine if it is a good idea to advertise with@TheHustle?1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -

How did you come to that conclusion? I see zero connection.

Replying to @theSamParr @TheHustle
Wasn't trying to be rude. Was simply thinking in the Advertising space
@TheHustle has a ceiling on what the company can charge customers before it doesn't make sense to advertise. If that is true then 10x ing the price may not drive an ROI for advertisers.2 replies 0 retweets 2 likes
Yes - 10x all prices will not always work. My point was that MANY do not charge well.
