Cash is the lifeline of every business. Unfortunately, the majority of businesses live only with 27 cash buffer days and, with the pandemic of this COVID-19, cash situations are getting worse day by day. Subscription enables brands to lock-in their customers, get recurring revenue and most importantly collect upfront money which improves cash flow. Netflix, Spotify, and Uber are some of the first big players in the subscription game. Inspired by these brands, TADA has successfully created a technology platform for lifestyle businesses, ecommerce, restaurants, and many others to strategically plan, manage and launch subscription program for their customers.
