Beat the churn: The secret to retaining customers and increasing revenue in the subscription economy
It was more than a decade ago that Adobe had the brilliant idea of turning their expensive Photoshop licenses into a subscription service.

- How to best streamline processes to support long-term success
- Simplifying pricing and packaging
- Streamlining contract amendments and renewals
- Reducing churn through effective use of billing
- Importance of data analytics and insights
- Value of Salesforce CPQ platform in the subscription industry
