Starting a Subscription Box Business - Looking for feedback

[rhianne.newton]

Hello, we are looking to gather some feedback on a new subscription box we will be launching!

The box will be for our fellow entrepreneurual thinkers who that want to escape the rat race to start their own business. As we all know it's a challenge delving into the unknown to create a life you really want so this box will aid anyone on that journey by providing monthly motivation, training, education, mindset tips and more. Almost like a business partner in a box! ?

If you have a moment we would be very grateful if you could fill in this short survey which will help us with our research. All responses are greatly appreciated. As a token of our appreciation you will be entered into a draw to win a free subscription box when we launch ?

Leave us feedback

Almost impossible to answer your questions. Members here already run their own business.

Business in a box
It needs to be a very big box ! A very big box !

If I was starting now all the resources you need are already accessible you can even join UKBF if they will take you on ! You get a free membership where they will give you all the support you would need

Business training and motivation is not really understood by most people one has observed Im not going to go into it because it is a complicated breakdown

I'm really not seeing this I'm afraid - there is just so much free resource out there for start ups (too much IMO, but nobody asked me!).

It's difficult to get start ups to pay regularly for necessary professional services, nothing on your list jumps out as being special or particularly interesting.

The other issue is that normally the entrepreneurial type - by definition - is a self-starter. If I need to rely on somebody else to coach me chances are I won't be suited to manage my own business in the first place.

Unless of course I am a wannabe-entrepreneur. That's your real audience perhaps.

OP, I hope you have thought this idea through, personally I just do not see it working, but I have been wrong plenty of times over the years.

The first question I would always ask someone trying to sell me tips on creating a business - how many businesses have you successfully built from scratch?

(it's relatively easy to check, in most cases)

I literally have no idea what this is about. "Entered into a free prize draw" always makes me feel confident.

education

Education about what?

I had a look at it, I'm not sure you are allowed to collect email addresses without an option to opt out of any mail. So what point is your survey if people can't submit it to help you?

Perhaps compliance with GDPR should be lesson 1!
